Rest week complete, BACK TO WORK!

Well rest week has been sucking. I am just bored and I feel gross. I also tweaked my hamstring playing pickup the other day. I'm hoping by Monday I'll be good to go. Anyhow, here's hoping. Gotta say my motivation is dwindling. I need to get back to work soon and start reclaiming my future!


3.10.14

Back to work!

Jumping
Depth Jumps - 4 x 5
Felt good.

Tuck Jumps - 3 x 10

Squat Jumps - 3 x 10

Power Conditioning
Sprint - 2 x 100 yds
Sprint - 2 x 80 yds
Sprint - 12 x 40 yds w/ 30 s Rest

Sprinting is tough. Amazing how much I felt it in my hamstrings. Definitely need to keep stretching and working mobility.

Basketball Day!!! Played several games this morning and I played pretty well. I shot well and only had a couple of completely stupid passes. Good times, I was really stiff at first and am sore now but not too bad.


3.12.14

AM Workout

Plyo Pushups - 3 x 10

Bench Press - Up to a heavy 3 x 5
45/135/185/205/215

I had no energy, I got up late, I just wasn't feeling it. This time change is kicking my tail!!!

Lunch Workout:

1 mile warmup jog @ 8:30 min/mi

Alt Leg Bounding - 5 x 5 bounds
Took some getting used to. I'm much more powerful and comfortable off my left leg than my right.

Depth Jumps - 24" Box - 4 x 5
Felt really good actually

Hill Sprints - 4 x 25 yds
Felt good, my hamstrings were a little sore but not bad

High Knee Hill Sprints - 4 x 25 yds
Interesting, never done before.

Cooldown - 400 yd walk and stretch

Felt good afterward. I like sprinting work. Definitely felt it in my glutes the next day.

Basketball day!!! Had 8 folks, so we played 3 games of 4 v. 4 and one of 3 v. 3. I played pretty good. I had a short guy on me the entire time and could have easily worked the low post and just dominated but I wanted more of a challenge so I stayed outside and just slashed in. Good games, good sweat.
