Today's Gym Session

[chamber34]

Not quite a gym session, but had a sprint circuit lined up this morning and took our trainee with me.

1 set:
10x burpees w/ plyometric tuck jump at end
15/30/50m shuttle sprints

He was vomiting by the end of the second set. Love it!! :thumbup: Respect due though, he vowed to work on it until he could do it. :closed:

Followed this up with wk 3 day 3 level 3 of 100 Press Up Challenge -> 26/26/33/33/26/26/22/22/60 w/45secs rest (274 total).

Should be in line to top out in a couple of day's time.

Not at all! All done in the great outdoors: an avenue of trees in the fields opposite our office.

Definition of plyometric here. On that understanding, once back into the squat position, having done the squat thrust, I then jump from the crouch as high and as fast as I can into a tuck.

As to shuttle runs, distances approx, but using trees as markers, I sprint to the 2nd tree, sprint back, sprint to the 4th and back then finally to the 6th and back. Which, after the burpees is a killer. :thumbup:

3 gyms
2 road bike outings
1 run

Thats an average week

PS Two bloody races this week, Pendle (that I will enjoy) & Keighley 10k (that I'll hate) but work want me to do it as they are a sponsor.

Basic Goal is sub 60 minutes in each and that'll do nicley.

I wonder how reliable they are? I always thought it was about 500p hour if you worked hard,
