Oscar weekend is coming to a close, but I think I'll make this a yearly event. Here's Will Smith prepping for Castaway--- I mean "I am Legend."

Angelina Jolie's Tomb Raider Training Routine

I've never posted anything but sports workouts on this site. But there are times when you find something that you gotta post. So if you like vintage Angelina Jolie like I do, this one's for you, and if you ever though about what it takes to shoot a kickass movie, this workout's for you:

Learn Pau Gasol's Post Game

I don't know what Pau will be best remembered as when he leaves the game, the star who was involved in one of the biggest psuedo-trades in NBA history, or an all-star. Would you rather start off a sentence, "Man that Pau trade was awful," or would you chime in after talking about how good Pau is and say say "yeah he works great with Kobe, but what an awful trade."

He's the Olympic gold medalist goalie for Team Canada and the Vancuver Canucks, teaching goalie drills:

Learn Kobe Bryant's Moves

He's back, but Kobe's not doing so well. He's become a facilitator for his team mates and for some reason, he hasn't been the same scoring machine. Hopefully, he can get his game together before playoff time. He has the most complete skillset in the game, and could probably keep his game at a high level for the next three years. Here's a couple of his moves (via Nike, thanks Swoosh):

Julia Mancuso Olympic Workout Routine

At the start of the games, Lindsay Vonn was all the talk, and she made good the hype by winning a gold. I still wasn't really interested in watching skiing. But, then we learned that she and Julia Macuso had a little bit of a cat fight and I was glued to the screen. Macuso scored silver and she too has become a name at this Olympics. Here's a little bit of her workout:


Wood Chop
This move really strengthens the core muscles. "Place your feet a little more than hip-width apart," she said, "and hold the medicine ball at shoulder height. Bend your knees slightly and quickly pull the medicine ball down to your left foot, and return to the starting position." You'll do 10 reps and three sets of these on each side.

Single-Leg Squat
This exercise is the secret to Mancuso's strong and shapely legs. "Stand on a stability cushion and balance on one leg," she said. "Then, do a mini-squat with the other leg reaching out behind you, coming back to your starting position." And, you guessed it -- 10 reps and three sets with each leg.

Martin Broduer's unique Tennis Workout

Just like I put up a post about Ryan Miller, I'm doing the same for Team Canada's and one of the best goalies in history, Martin Broduer. He's done everything and he's still going. He's pretty inventive in creating a workout routine centered around a tennis court:

Jogging. Agility drills. Tennis. Plyometrics. The workout offers no insight into the NHL goalie's dominance on the ice — until he grabs two tennis balls.

• With a ball in each hand, he begins shuffling briskly along the practice wall.
• A ball is tossed at the wall with his right hand, caught with his left, while the other ball has moved from left to right. Up and down the wall he moves in a mesmerizing display of concentration and coordination.
• Every ball strikes the wall at the same elevation. Each return is caught at precisely the same height. No ball is dropped. His movement is elegant and powerful.
When you watch that drill and listen to Brodeur speak of his craft, it's clear his success on the ice is about his focus and mind as much as his athleticism.
