Stadium stairs running is an old school, time tested way to become stronger. Jazzercise with the 5 pound weights is a little new wave, pop culture ish. Both are fantastic basic training methods that can prepare us for nearly any physical challenge.
We split up into two groups. The Fellas and the Gals. One group stood high above the Peachtree Battle Field on the concrete ridge that hugs the school. Y'all exercised arms, back and shoulders while the other group ran easy down the far set of stairs, picked it up for a half a lap around the track, then hammered up the center stairs. As the runners were returning to the ridge, The jazzercise group dropped their burden, spread their wings, and took off in flight.
We had to switch it up with a quarter to go. Some of us were walking out and others were thinking about walking out. So we finished on the field. The exercise remained tough, but we eliminated the stairs.
People are getting hurt. What are we to do? Wear a Phiten necklace? Drink more water? Drink Chia Seeds in our water? Wear Newtons? Not push it too much? Ice that which is sore? Ice some more? Get treatment? SHOW UP EARLY AND GET WARMED UP?
