sunset

The sun may set, but it will rise again in the morning.

The plan: fast and short interval sprints today! Three sets of 10 reps. Each rep is 15 seconds fast sprints with 15 seconds to rest. Keep up the pace and enjoy!

standing in the way of control

The plan: Treadmill sprints! mixing it up for time and speed! Basically, you can tailor this to your own desires, but my session today will look something like this (you will have to imagine the sweat, gasps for air and cursing):

• Warm up
• 1min @ 14.5km/h then 1 minute rest
• 1 min @ 15.5km/h then 1 minute rest
• 1 min @ 16km/h then 1 minute rest
• 30 sec @ 17.5km/h then 30 seconds rest
• 30 sec @ 18.5km/h then 30 seconds rest
• 30 sec @ 17.5km/h then 30 seconds rest
• 1 min @ 14km/h then 1 minute rest
• 30 sec @ 17.5km/h then 30 seconds rest
• 30 sec @ 18.5km/h then 30 seconds rest
• 30 sec @ 17.5km/h then 30 seconds rest
• 1 min @ 16km/h then 1 minute rest
• 1 min @ 15.5km/h then 1 minute rest
• 1 min @ 14.5km/h then 1 minute rest

Ramp it up, or slow it down. I don’t usually put speeds up but I wasn’t sure how to describe it. Kinda like sprinting up and down a hill but not really?!?

Only 10 minutes of work in total, enjoy!

i will wait

It has been ages, and I mean simply way too long, since the last time I went climbing. My hands are soft and feet comfortable… not for long! Tonight is the night!

The plan (till then): 8 x 2 minute fast as possible sprints for the whole duration with 1 minute recovery. Dig deep, those seconds make trickle by as slowly as treacle from a spoon, but they will pass. Warm up good and proper first!

zooom!

low rider

The plan: End of week frazzel. Unwind by saluting the sun, 5 times each side.  Then spend some time working of hip mobility. Feel all that tension trickle out… So good!

Golden rule #3: don’t let your jeans ride tooooo low.

Have a good one, boom!
