3 Pulls and 3 Runs

Note: Was planning on doing 5 pulls and 5 runs with 65.7 kg, however I discovered a large blister in the middle of my index finger. I noticed that there was dirt inside, so I ripped off the loose skin (horrible idea). Now it’s stinging whenever I touch it. This won’t stop my from exercising however. My alternative for exercising this week will probably be sprints around the track or up hill sprinting. Or, perhaps wrap a hose/rope around my waist and run with the prowler across the courts again (yes, I believe I’m in love with the Prowler).

Class Summative/Fitness Test

If you haven’t seen my previous post, my group consisted of 2 strength/power and 2 cardio power houses. The group has broken apart and the two cardio power houses left. We replaced them and now my team is all power and strength. One of them has decent cardio, however myself and the 2 others have to train harder to make up for the lost cardiovascular fit people.
