Wednesday 27th August
Report written by Adam
On the lovely Wednesday afternoon, as Adam got to the meet-up point Kirsty and Brian were outside the leisure center ready and waiting for the training session to start.
Brian promptly got involved with stretching as we waited for the birthday star to arrive, fashionably late as always.
Once James got there, Adam went into details of the fitness session, going through the warm up drills moving on to the main fitness task, 80 meter sprints following up with squats and start jumps until everyone has returned to the start.
We started with a light jog around the leisure center, to an area where we can start the warm up game. The game was to run in a specified area, a person would shout "5". From there you would find the person closest to you and play rock, paper, scissors. The winner would choose the exercise, and the winner would do 3 lots of those exercise while the person who came second, would have to repeat the exercises 6 times.
We started running in the area and Adam shouted 5, to start the game. Adam faced Kirsty, while James faced Brian, where all people quickly started there specified exercises. Next James called 5 and the game started again.
Once everyone called 5, we focused our energies on the sprints. At 80% effort we all went for it. Adam and Kirsty were the first to get back to start, and straight into the squats and start jumps. when everyone arrived at the start, we all had a 20 second reset before starting again.
Within the twenty minute target time to get the sprints in we all managed 11 sprints in total.
To finish off a great workout we all heading to the pub to rest and recover and to celebrate James' birthday. Well done, as everyone gave a great effort during today's session.
