Adjust Your Schedule Summer heat can take a toll on your body. Try to schedule intense workouts earlier in the morning or later in the evening to avoid peak temperatures. 3.

Stay ahead of dehydration by drinking plenty of water throughout the day and fueling yourself with nutrient-rich foods that support recovery and performance. 4. Focus on Recovery Training hard is only half the battle—recovery is just as important. Incorporate stretching, mobility work, ice baths, or extra sleep into your routine to stay fresh and prevent injuries. 5. Stay Competition Ready If you're entering competitions, simulate game conditions in practice. Focus on mental preparation too: visualization, pre-game routines, and stress management can give you a major edge. 6. Listen to Your Body Summer training can be intense. Know the difference between pushing through discomfort and risking an injury. Take rest days when needed and communicate openly with your coaches or trainers. 7. Keep it Fun Summer is a great time to fall back in love with your sport. Mix in some lighter, creative sessions, cross-train, or challenge yourself with new drills to stay motivated and fresh.
