Legs

It was another beautiful, cool morning on the proving ground near Peachtree. We had a nice crowd. We started with a few laps and some stretching. Then we ran suicides with push ups, one long stair case and a quarter mile stride and we were ready to start the workout. We split in two groups. One group remained on the field while the other ran up a double set of stairs to "the stump garden."

The Stump Garden is an out door classroom perfect for stair step aerobics and other various exercises. It is perfect for group training.

Ten minutes later the groups switched locations and continued working lower body muscles. On the second switch the center set of stairs was used for "bar" exercise. This looks a lot like ballet. It cranks our leg muscles pretty good.

We are calling it 3 miles and 700 repetitions of various exercise. Medium day.

We have had some issues with nagging injury. If we run our cars hard every day, they are going to need maitenance. The same goes for our body. We work out every day. Most of us work out all the days. It is important to walk that razor thin line between training hard/smart and overtraining. Protect yourself during the workouts. Drink tons of water. Show up ON TIME and warm up properly. Dont show up five minutes after six having just gotten out of bed and try and jump into this pack.
