Shoulders & Arms -Sept 6th

Shoulders & Arms:

Shoulders and arms together:
Warmup, Prehab all goes without saying.

Cardio to add into today! -there is a twist today....
-Run Backwards for the first 50% of the run, then finish forwards
-Load the sled. One 45llb plate.
-This is a team run/pull... if someone falls off the pace during their recovery the group can always add a few meters in the parking lot while they wait!
-It's going to be hot. Hydrate before and after!


58: Open Bay doors, Running members will do a lap of the outside and return to the parking lot through the doors. Pulling members will start in the parking lot and pull to the front doors, then return to the parking lot. Do not pull the loaded sled through the bay. Yes, I did feel I had to say that.

57: Running members can complete a lap around the hall, as can the pulling members.

All: Pull for a lap, run for 3 laps (or until it is your turn again).
If more than 4 people are participating, double the weight and have 2 members pull together.
Complete a minimum of 3 pulling laps. Run should be a steady pace but allow some recovery before you pull again.
