Saturday: 5, 10, 15, Sprint

Did LIGHT core work at home -- 2 rounds of:
  • saxon side bends (5lb)
  • standing twists (with the two 5lb plates - not heavy enough to be effective)
  • 10 ab wheel roll-outs
  • 10 v-ups
  • 10 lying hip swings
  • 10 leg lifts
  • 10 chinnies
The hit the trail along Rock Creek Parkway with Reidles. Good stuff over there -- 83-85 degrees, sunny, humid, perfect (shoulda had some agua tho)...

GPP circuit -- 4 rounds of:
  • 5 pull ups
  • 10 plyo push ups (got tired out and did regular push ups on rounds 3 & 4 - bah!)
  • 15 squat jumps
  • Sprint approx 50-60 yards
Finished up with some short runs and Reid showed me some cool exercises he does on the various rings, bars, benches and such along the trail.

The circuits were clean and continuous but we took wayyyy to long breaks between 'em. I was willing to cut short and not push the really short breaks b/c the sprint required a walk/jog back anyway and because I was demo-ing some of the exercises up front a little too much, had a good warm-up jog to park, etc etc etc - all excuses, I know.
