Bruised but feeling good

I had team training on Tuesday. Mindy, our trainer, set up various stations for us to work through. One of them was a suspended rope wall, which swayed. We had to go up the rope, over the top, and down the other side. It wouldn't have been so bad except for the fact that it swayed. That was pretty difficult and caused me to get my first wound.

Mindy gives us homework that we are to complete throughout the week. So Wednesday night I did a pyramid workout. You are to do pull ups, push ups, sit ups, and squats. You add more each set until you get to the 10th set, then you work your way back down again. Well, I couldn't find a place to do pull ups, so I just did the push ups, sit ups, and squats. I felt pretty good. I was tired when I was done, but it wasn't as bad as I thought. I am sure I will change my tune when I add the pull ups.

Today is Thursday and I felt pretty good. A little sore from the push ups and the squats, but not too bad. My one teammate, Laura, and I meet at the track to do tonight's homework. We had to run a lap and then go up and down the stairs. We were to do 6 sets. I felt pretty good on the run, however the stairs were killing me. My legs were rubber by the end. I am sure it was because they were so tired from the squats last night. All in all I feel pretty good. My left knee is hurting a little, but not as much as it had been.
