Arrived late yet again. Stupid bus.
• Sprints starting from the ground with some sets of 10 pushups thrown in: 6?
These were good because we had enough rest on the ground to actually sprint at near 100%.
• Tackling the bags (i think?)
• Rucking! 10 ft run up, hitting one person, driving for a count of 10. 4 stations, about 15ft apart. Run through all 4 then rest: x5-6?
These were great, haven't practiced just hitting and driving for a while. This is where the PL training serves me well, I was lower than almost everyone and actually driving hard and fast for the full count. Legs tired by the end, but felt great.
• Rucking against two people bound, 2 stations: x5-6
Same idea. I got an 'ow!' out of morgan on one. I chalk that up to a combination of hitting power and bony shoulders going into her butt.
• Running plays with backs: ~30mins
Full gallop. switched between wing and fullback. Looking pretty damn good actually. I'm definitely better conditioned for actual running play than say suicides.
• 6v6 full tackle: ~20mins
• X-drill - with a square area, jog the straightaways, sprint the diagonals: x6
This was the biggest damn box we've ever run this drill in ever. Definitely hard.
• Static stretching
8/12/09 - Wed - Sheiko
• Bench: 45x5, 65x3, 75x3, 85x3x2, 100x2x5 (80)
• DB bench: 20x10x4
• Deadlift: 135x3, 160x3, 185x3x2,
My hips were really tight and bothering me on these, likely due to falling on them during rugby. Started popping on the 185, then right one hurting on 200's. This made me try to lift completely with my quads/lower legs instead of using hip drive, thus hard and sucky lifts. Sucked it up and did it right on the last one, which wasn't comfortable, but because it was faster didn't hurt as bad as I expected.
• Good mornings: 45x10x2
Fuck good mornings.
Arrived on time!
• Jogging: 10mins
• Dynamic Stretching: ~10mins
• Running lines of 4 with some looping and defenders: 25mins continuously
Brutal. So gassed by the end. We just kept going and going and going.
• Decision-making passing 3v2: 15mins
• Tackling the bags: x~5
• Tackling 2 bags one after the other: ~3times
• Lateral tackling of bodies: ~20mins
Not bad, only missed one with morgan running full out. She earlier tackled me such that I landed hard on my grumpy hip. Oof. I also banged tammy's head up a bit. oops.
• Mauling against pads: 20mins
• 6v6 full tackle: ~20mins
• Sprints down and back to 20m starting from the ground alternating with partner: 8
Considering how gassed I was at the beginning of practice, these felt good and !gassed.
• Static stretching
Talked with Coach Karen a bit about the merits of suicides/exhaustive sprinting. She did not discount Jake's argument, but noted that one school of thought for rugby training is to almost over-train during practice, so that in actual games, it is that much easier.
