I'm in the U.S., I weigh 150 pounds, I'm six foot one, my 40 is probably a 4.9, I'm pretty weak, my bench is 130, my endurance is pretty good and probably the only thing I got going for me. I'm a senior in high school, and although I play pick-up basketball, football and soccer, I was never good or athletic at anything enough to even try out for a team. The rugby team is new at our school this year, but soccer and football kids are going to try out. Rugby doesn't start until spring, which gives me time to condition, but practice has already started and in the practices I've gone to I just don't feel like I would be a good contribution.
What is a good mindset to have as far as getting in shape by the time the season starts? Also, what would be a good position for my body type? What also is a good mindset to have as far as loving the contact? My pain tolerance is very, very high, but I just haven't engrained myself with the urge to crash into people.
Thanks
