day 3... i was feeling good, a little bit more sleep and being the middle of the day i wasn't as drained from work.
this is another one of those sessions (like most of ours i guess) that if you aren't completely spent at the end, you just weren't trying at all.
the 'A' part was good, tough and timed well - the tabatas were welcome relief but still hard.
the 'B' part sucked in a really good way. doing it as a relay puts the pressure on some more to get up and down the tower fast. then pulling/pushing the sled against an opponent is absolutely brutal. there aren't any photos of us lying around struggling to breathe afterwards because we were all toast.
great stuff, looking forward to wednesday!
btw, that was me recovering from the second round of sled drag/thruster, just so you know!
quality training session today, the balance between death and torture and gasping for life through means of oxygen was perfect...
as difficult as it was, as hard as i pushed i truly deeply believe that there is more in all of us still, its something i understand through feeling and observation, not because im not pushing hard enuf, but because we have more to give at another level, perhaps not fully understood through physical means, well done today boys, good session, push pull combos on sled are supurb, zercher im proud of you...
Session described as high intensity, deep challenge. Shattered at the end of Part A - lungs hurting from the heavy sandbag walk back up the hill.
The intensity was there for the entire 50 minutes we were working. Power and strength endurance that defines the great sessions that we have had over the past 6 months of training in this way was definately there today.
