A good start

Here we go boys and girls! Midweek Mix is officially underway, and what a great start it was! The night was cool with a slight breeze and most importantly, no sign of mosquitoes. Being the very first session, we didn't go too hard, just trying to get our unfit bodies accustomed to the rigors of proper training again:

1. Dynamic stretching (full body)
2. Spider crawls (upper body and core)
3. Zenkutsu dachi pushing (legs)
4. Narrow pushups (punching muscles)
5. Slope shuttles (cardio)
6. Basic striking techniques (full body)
7. Toe tag (cardio)

Most of it was manageable, but the slope shuttles were challenging. We did 3 x 2 minute rounds, with a minute's rest in between. We struggled, but at least now we have a target for future sessions: 20 laps per round (we managed about 17 max). It sure feels good to be training again. Training times have been decided upon - 8pm on Wednesdays. See you there next week.
