What once started out to be a once a month thing has now turned into a weekly event. Participation is growing by leaps and bounds with verbal commitments from others to join at later dates.
This EPIC day was a bit different from last week. We started out with 20 reps of lunges up the bleachers and up the entire lower deck compared to last weeks running up the stairs in the middle sections. Almost twice the steps. At the bottom we alternated box squats and push ups to complete the rep. Then it was time to head down to the field for abs. 250 crunches or obliques how ever you could stomach them. The bicycles were axed this week and rightfully so. It did make it a bit easier last week. Time to get off the ground and move into some foot work. James decided that we would throw in a curve ball and instead of just sprints we went with a 20 yard sprint followed by 20 yards of grapevine/crossovers(whatever you want to call them) 20 yard sprint then switch sides on the grapevine and then sprint it out for the last 20 yards. 3 of those and the next one replace the grapevine with skipping, completely James' idea. The last one was an all out backwards run for the full 100, which i won and then a slow.....did I say slow jog back to the PC for a shower and then off to work for a nap.
Great day of working out. My opinion may change tomorrow when I can't stand upright due to the box squats and lunges. But it is swim day so all I have to do is not drown. Simple right.
