Sprinting on the Danube

After an exhausting weekend of playing at indoor nationals for Pills and traveling to Budapest (general laziness) for Henry, we decided to take it easy on Monday. However, on Tuesday Henry got back to work in Budapest while Pills continued his recovery. Henry found a quiet little island in the middle of the Danube (Margaret Island), walked through a sweet little garden, and set up shop next to some big old crazy looking trees of some kind or another. The workout was a short to medium range speed workout, and with the quad back to 100 percent (or at least 95), it felt good. On Wednesday Henry headed home and between traveling and Pills' rest, it was another day off. Thursday was back to work with a lift and Friday was a normal short range speed workout, with throws included.

Monday:        Rest

Tuesday:        Sprints (Henry only)- 6x 75m, 6x 50m, 6x 25m on Margaret Island

Wednesday:   Rest

Thursday:       Lift- Combo lift 2. Deadlift/pushups, split squat/bench (down to chest, pause, up),
                        shoulder swings/calf raises

Friday:           Sprints- 2x8 stomach starts running after disc. 16 total sprints of 50-75 yards each with
                       the other hucking. Strong core workout to finish

Margaret Island in the middle of the Danube in Budapest.  Not a bad spot for some sprints.

Big old twin Dr. Seuss trees provided a great recovery spot.
