Be sure to drink plenty of water! It will keep you hydrated and ready for more.

Also, rest is also important. If your muscles are very tired, there is nothing wrong with doing some excersies to work out the soreness, but if you work out really hard for days without getting rest, you can actually damage muscle tissue. If you try to do pushups tomorrow and you find you can only do a few before it starts hurting real bad, stop, do some arm stretches, and take a break.
Yeah I used to go 2 days working out, one day break and on and on like that. Now I think I'll do 4-5 days per week.

Also, last year I loved my coaches, and I'll be the last to criticize anything any of my coaches do but the dude playing safety next to me had no idea how to play football, he missed tackles everywhere, couldn't catch and wasn't fast at all but he got so cocky from getting to start. One of the dumbest kids I've ever talked to too.

This year, I have no relationship at all with the coaches, my first year, my head coach was also my history teacher and a general nice guy and my assistant was a nice guy as well. The senior coaches are more strict and stuff and I have no relationship whatsoever with them, so I'll have to adjust.
