On Tuesday, Real Salt Lake kicked off its second official day of preseason and its first of the dreaded double days with training sessions in both the morning and afternoon in the box at Zions Bank Training Center.
Morning sessions bring with them an air of competition and physicality, the guys are often dripping in sweat by the time the final whistle blows. Meanwhile the afternoon focuses on rejuvenation, taking care of the body and the more tactical elements of the game.
Tuesday was no different. The boys continued their “fast start to preseason,” continuing to jump right into aggressive passing and possession drills in the morning with position-driven drills on the other side of noon.
