Is anyone else here into lifting of any kind (olympic weightlifting, powerlifting, bodybuilding) or fitness or conditioning and whatnot? Or is it pretty much just me and Chris? It has recently become a huge passion of mine and I love it.

What are you talking about? Baseball players lift a LOT.

I work out about 4 days a week. Define "workout." Running? Lifting? Combo?

What are you talking about? Baseball players lift a LOT. It depends on where you are and your coach. Normally they do more flexibility exercises for us. Instead of lifting which strengthens muscles we don't use in throwing we use resistance bands which strengthen the shoulder and elbow where most of the throwing stress is. I personally don't lift a ton, but I know most of the varsity does. Squatting and lower body/core stuff is most of what they do because benching and other upper body workouts normally don't help that much. If I started lifting and working out more I probably would have made it to varsity before senior year (I'm a Junior  )

It has recently become a huge passion of mine and I love it. I used to do some lifting at least 3x a week, not too long though just a couple of months. Right now I only exercise a bit..jogging, swimming etc.
