New Direction




Monday we will start our experiment with a modified version of Coach Rob Shaul's Military Athelete programming. This program according to Coach Shaul is designed for atheletes who have no season, specifically military, law enforcement, emergency response folks. Coach Shaul describes this as a burden of constant fitness. His programming makes folks stronger and faster but most importantly more durable. Everyone needs that, so we are going to try it out.

Most workouts will not be for time, but you will need to work diligently to finish the training within an hour. Come in Monday ready to go, in other words, rest on Sunday and get lots of sleep (I will be at the firehouse Sunday night, so sleep for me will be a roll of the dice.)

I can't wait.
