I think the elements really play a vital role in most football games and it can go both ways depending on if you are a southern team or northern team and how well individuals do in both sets of weather, like summer and winter. Being from Florida and playing college there as well as now playing in Austin, Texas I am pretty used to the hot weather and I think that helps me perform better when other teams are getting beat down by the sun and are super dehydrated. But going into the cold weather it is a different type of monster to me. I have to train myself the weeks before games that I know it will be cold by doing my work outs , that I am able to do, in a walk in freezer that I pay a friend to use. I am hoping it helps me get used to having the blood pumping and heavier breathing when the air hurts to breath. Other than that I always hope we get an earlier flight in so I can work on cardio in the cold and cutting on the turf or grass with it being harder and a lot more difficult to really do my cuts on to make breaks on the ball.
