Friday 06/08/12

Friday is agility and plyometrics day, so try to avoid wearing running shoes if at all possible. Basketball and/or volleyball shoes are much better options.

Post a goal to the comments today (there will be a reward). What do you want to achieve this summer in regards to athletics? A 200/300/400 lb squat? Benching your bodyweight for 5 reps or more? Increasing your vertical jump? Completing a metcon as prescribed (i.e., exactly as written - no scaling)? "Surviving MSCL" does not count!

Remember, today is the last day that you can email me your comments - talk to me if you've had problems posting a comment. Also, you can only post for yourself (siblings/friends cannot post for each other).


Warm-up


Agility/Plyometrics - Testing


3 min AMReAP of:
10 Push-ups
10 Walking Lunges
1 Down-back (basketball court)

Rest 1 minute. Repeat for a total of 4 cycles. Record total reps completed for each of the 4 cycles. The down-back starts from wherever you finish your lunges - it finishes back at the end line again.

Compare to 07/26/11.
