Sundays class
I will not be able to make this Sunday due to a function that I need to attend. That doesn't mean that you cant still go up and do a session yourselves! 4:30pm. Post comments if you are still planning on attending. Lee
Well, in Lee's absence, John and I stepped up to the plate and had our own wee circuit session on the Meadows. We started with the usual warm-up run round the park before moving into the meat of the session. The order of the day was 5 sets of 5 excercises, each for 30 seconds with a 10 second rest in between.
Set 1: Push-ups, Squats, Sit-ups, Star jumps, Back jerks
Set 2: Seal push-ups, V-sit ups, Polymeric jumps, Hip rotations (inwards), Hip rotations (outward)
Set 3: Polymeric push-ups, Steam-engines, Burpees, Descents, Mountain climbers
Set 4: Super Burpees (a.k.a. "Bastardos"), Side raises (left). Side raises (right), Push-ups, Lunges
Set 5: Shallow sit-ups, Polymeric jumps, Grasshoppers, Crunchs, Sprints (lamp-post to lamp-post)
It was a good session (if I do say so myself) and John really put in the effort, especially with trying some of my more odd excercises!
Hopefully see some more people there in the future!
Count me in.
ReplyDeleteDon't worry guys, I've come up with a good wee circuit plan that should be quite "interesting"!

Good to hear that you guys have made it.
ReplyDeleteNow that you've mentioned what was going on, I'm eager to try some of this stuff myself.
Such a shame I had to spend Sunday in an air-conditioned office sipping coffee. Not being sarcastic, honestly!
See you on Tuesday.
