I mean it's funny and great to hear but it's also kind of sad he (Donovan's father) has to post this on Christmas to clarify things.

I hope whoever posted that on Twitter and started the rumor has a horrible day.

This is an all-time Boneyard moment.

I’ve had that clown on ignore for so long I forgot he existed. Hilarious that it’s him getting called out.

It was posted a dozen times over the past couple of weeks, and deleted each time. Tenspro's post is by far the most innocuous.

 

[CTFIRERETIRED]

Why?? Often times sprains are worse than breaks.

Yes they are.

Fair enough, Mr. Cling.

Hopefully whenever he comes back he doesn't have the extra pounds he had earlier.

Probably going to be very unlikely if he can’t condition since he can’t run/do most things cardio related.

This is like exactly what the exercise bike was invented for.

I’m not a training expert, maybe someone else who is can speak to this more. But I feel like bikes aren’t as effective as good old fashion running.

Also if his foot is in a boot idk how much he can use the bike either.

It's been four days, he ain't better yet?

I was really into running and suffered an IT band injury so pivoted to biking. Biking is extremely effective to stay conditioned. Cardio is cardio. It’s lower impact but gets your blood pumping all the same.

Swimming and biking will help maintain cardio, for sure, but the reality is that "basketball shape" is a different animal and cannot be replicated until he's on the court.

 

[ARIDE]

Fair enough, Mr. Cling.

Unfortunately 90% of the bone headers don't know or how to this site or belong on it!!!

swim

even better deepwater running, put on a heart monitor and try to jack up the HR

 

[Palatine]

There was a guy, who walked the length of the Appalachian Trail on his hands. Great way to stay in shape and not stress your feet.

He won’t lose weight without cutting calories no matter what he does but I’m sure the staff is on this.

 

[CTFAN4LIFE]

I've always used the technique of using a cardio machine for only about five to ten minutes to get heart rate up and then hitting weight machines with little to no breaks between sets and this keeps the heart rate up all workout long and burns more body fat than using a cardio machine for 30 minutes. You get the double-bonus without all the wear and tear on knees and feet (I played hockey so lots of lower body and upper body issues) and you save time as well.

I misread this the first time and then reread it. OK.

Not as true for top athletes. Phelps reportedly burned 10k calories/day. At 7'3" 275#, Donovan likely burns more calories walking to the gym than most people do on a treadmill while he gets there.

IF he needs to lose 20# he should be able to do so by skipping a morning bagel and working off the rest on a treadmill (or a suitable alternative).

I have zero doubt he'll do whatever it takes.

Have u ever used a HR monitor while doing it? I’ve done it but my HR doesn’t get high enough to be considered HIIT. But it’s too inconsistent to be zone 2. Any suggestions appreciated.

Not sure it’s cutting total calories it is more what type of calories is he consuming. But these guys now have so many advisors they will be given a regimen daily. Hurleys probably was talking more about any non approved calories at night in his room etc. So as noted it is up to DC. I think it will be easier for him in season because he will miss playing and that should give him the proper motivation.

Agreed on the athlete aspect, but Phelps burnt that many calories because of the sport. You burn a lot more calories swimming because your body is also working to maintain your core temp.
