Throne of the King

Well, it looks like my punctuality is going downhill as our workouts go uphill.  On (last) Monday we went back to Arthur's Seat for some more hill sprints.  We found a good spot that was a little steeper than last time, so we did slightly shorter sprints (100m instead of 115m).  It turned out we were running next to a blackberry patch, so we used that to fuel up on the way down between reps.  The rest of the week was pretty vanilla, except that we took Friday off because Pills was traveling to London and Henry tweaked his groin and needed a recovery day.  To make up for it, Frosty did a bonus Saturday workout (to be included in the next update) and Pills made a Pain Train highlight video while on the 23 hour round-trip bus ride.

Monday:        Long Sprints- 8x 100m hill sprint

Tuesday:        Lift- Sets of 8/6/6/4

Wednesday:   Agilities- 6x Z Drill, 6x T Drill, 6x L Drill, 6x Pro, 4x Suicide (21m out and back, 14m
                       out and back, 7m out and back, 21m out)

Thursday:      Lift- Sets of 8/6/6/4, still with dips instead of rows (probably a permanent change)

Friday:           Rest
