A Lug of a Workout

April 8th, 2010

Thom came to my trainer session Wednesday morning and took photos. It amazes what he can do with that camera. He took probably 40 or 50 photos, and we have whittled that down to these six.

  • "This is a lot of fun!"

The tire weighs somewhere between 100 and 150 pounds according to my trainer. I flipped it over ten times then low crawled back to the beginning, did twenty jumps and then kicked Shawna 15 times on each side. I didn’t really kick her, she was wearing mitts. I did that routine four times.

The second routine started with sideways jumps. Jump into the tire pop up and out onto the other side. Do that twenty times.

  • Maybe I could learn to snowboard...

  • I bet I'd be awesome at Chinese jump rope now.

Next was 30 step taps.

  • Step, tap, step tap...

Then take off and sprint as fast as you can for about 30 yards, turn around and sprint back.
  • It would be nice to run this fast all the time.

Do this group three times. The last round instead of sideways jumps, I got to jump forward – way easier!
  • Jumping forward is easier than jumping sideways.

My workout started at 5:15 AM and ended at 6:15. It was great, but tiring!
