Run Conditioning

Took the guyz out for some basic conditioning today. Wanted to 'blow' out the lungs.

Started with 4, 100 yard runs to get some blood flow.

Liner
Goal to Goal, Goal to opposite 10, Goal to opp 20, etc. We did 1 round and it took about 5 minutes. This got the lungs burning and respiratory system going. 1 minute rest

800 meter run x1

We paced (on purpose) to finish at 4 minutes. I wanted the guyz to understand how to pace themselves through a round and not gas out. Rested 1 minute

Bodyweight conditioning, 4 minutes
Deck squat to a burpee to a push-up continious for 4 minutes.

100 yard carry
We carried 1 teammate for 100 yards and did 2 reps. I took the big man carrying him on my back, all 270 of him 1 round and our lightweight the other 100 also onmy shoulders. I found that this way really challenged my core and balance


Great conditioning session
