« on: May 26, 2015, 10:08:57 am »
Warm up
a walk, skip and run x 10m
Workout
3 x 60m
1. 8.37 w/ wearing knee support L lead leg
2. slow run and then after gradually accelerating until at full speed at 40m
3. 8.22 w/ R lead leg
dribbles transitioning to an A run
bulgarian split squats 22kg dumbells 2 x 5, 35kg 1 x 2 - hard but makes sense since I didn't do them for a week
RDL 1 x 10 using 27.5 kg dumbells
note: when I mention using dumbells I use two, one in each hand.
Cool down
stretch
walk down hill

the warm up and runs felt good, the hamstring injury is recovering well, on the first run, I could feel the tension but the pain was little but there. then I did a slow run then after getting faster and faster and did the last 60m sprints using right lead leg and I didn' feel much pain. after my shins were a little sore but after doing ankle hops and tuck jumps, which after my shins were very sore, I went to the split squats and felt tired a little lethargic, so did the 22.5kg which was nice and easy, but the 35kg was a struggle, especially on the injured leg, that on my first rep when I went down, i lost control and went and touched my knees on the floor, but I still took this opportunity to use my leg strength to come up and made it with some struggle, I also had to rush as I had to get home early and somebody wanted to use the squat rack I was using with the bench in the area, then I did the RDL's double leg using 22.5kg dumbell. After I was feeling a lot lethargic so called it a day. Hopefully next session my hamstring are feeling a lot better and I can do everything properly, as I forgot some mobility drills in the gym.
