Sorry this wasn’t up sooner- evidently the blog service decided not to post this at the scheduled time! Anyways…
It’s the second “week” of the training schedule, so hopefully we’ll see some more of you trickling in. Don’t forget that on Sunday, June 10th, we start weights. There is a set for those who have access to a gym, as well as those who do not have gym access. This week we are adding in the Jump rope workout as well. If you do not have a jump rope, simply do the motions without, picturing hoping over a low obstacle or something. Good luck, and let’s have a fantastically athletic week!
“The feel of a good row stays with you hours afterward. Your muscles glow, your mind wanders from the papers on you desk and goes back, again and again, to that terrific power piece at the end of the workout when it felt as if you and the boat were flying, as if you legs were two cannons and your arms were two oars and the great lateral muscles of your back were pterodactyl wings and the brim of your baseball cap was a harpoon.” — Barry Strauss from Rowing Against the Current
Hey guys! I’ve been doing the scheduled workouts so far, just not always at their scheduled times. With work and my other obligations I just don’t have the time sometimes to fit them in. I’ve been running a mile every morning, however, and bike for 30 minutes in a really hilly area a couple of times a week.
What’s everybody doing for jump rope workouts?
Hope you all are doing well and enjoying your summer!
Hey everyone! I hope you all are having great summers so far. I’ve been sticking to the workout schedule, with some longer runs in between. This was definitely the perfect week to have just a few scheduled workouts because I just moved to NYC and I have a weird work schedule right now.
Thanks to everyone that commented so far, and to everyone who hasn’t, let us know what you’re doing! It’s great motivation for everyone else and we want to know how you all are.
