Mid-Week Practice: Conditioning #2

For the second night of conditioning, we got to do two reps of all the leg lifts, bridges, planks, lunges and all of that fun stuff.

I was a little intimidated since I was the only "participant" who showed up. Everyone else was either a coach or a mentor. But luckily - I've said it before and I'll say it again - the TNT staff are the most welcoming and supportive and fun people I've met. It usually takes me ages to be as comfortable with a group of people as I am with them. So, needless to say, it didn't feel at all uncomfortable once we started going.

We did two laps around the track as a warm up (yes, my shins ached a tiny bit while I tried to overcompensate my strides to match Scott's and Gaily's) and then it was down to the exercises.

Some stretches came easier than the last week. Some even felt good after all the running. The duck walk in particular is lovely for the shins.

But some...

I will curse planks and bridged leg lifts until the day I die.
