If you’re not improving, you’re probably in decline.
Huston Street said it best in an article he wrote about being a rookie in the MLB: Every day, you either get a little bit better or a little bit worse.
I try to keep myself in the former category; it’s really easy to fall behind and be lazy in the winter, but you’ll regress. Instead, just devote a little bit of time–it could be as little as 10-15 minutes, total, out of your day–to improving. Even if it’s as simple as thinking about how you’d cut when you’re being forced out in 10 different situations (your main handler has the disc, a cutter with no huck has the disc; you’re in the back of the stack, the front of the stack; the swing has just gotten to the break side; you’re in the endzone; it’s upwind, it’s downwind, there’s a crosswind, etc), or whether it’s working out, or working on your reach when you’re tossing, or working on your fakes, it all adds up.
Just keep that in mind next time there’s 10 minutes you need to fill.
