Ballin' on the Tracks

We had kind of a screwball week this week.  On Tuesday we played basketball in a sweet spot in George V Park that was literally on a former railroad line.  On Wednesday we did an agility workout post-class in the time that it took the rest of the program to go to a nearby restaurant and place their orders, and on Thursday we made up a lift that was a combination of our Tuesday lift, our Thursday lift, and some plyos, with the lifts done at low weight with a focus on explosiveness.  Friday morning we went back to George V Park to do sprints through an old railroad tunnel next to the basketball court.  We had to go early so that we could get back before Henry left for Budapest, so we jogged there in the dark and caught the sunrise on the way back.

Monday:        Long Sprints- 8x 120m shuttles (3x 40m legs)

Tuesday:        Lazy- Balling in the afternoon, then an after-midnight pushup workout to finish the day

Wednesday:   Agilities- 4x Z, 4x T, 4x L, 4x Pro, 4x 40m sprint

Thursday:      Lift- Squats/Pullups, Bench/Plyos, RDLs/OH Press-- low weight and explosive

Friday:           Short(ish) Sprints- 8x 105m sprints
