but what does jogging do to you ?

what about your legs ?

Answer 1

The amount of jogging you are doing is mainly to warm up your muscles before practice.

Jogging will improve your cardiovascular conditioning so you can play harder for a longer period of time.

However, you need to run for at least 15 minutes to have any training effect.

Running on a hard surface without good shoes can injure your legs and joints.

Answer 2

It helps you run longer and builds stronger leg mucles!
