Jess' Summer Fitness - Memorial Stairs - June 29/16

Memorial Stairs Training (Bootcamp/Obstacle Course Training)
Warm Up
Raise Leg Lunges
- Alternate Legs with sets. Lower to 90 degrees at lead leg.  Hip Flexor stretch on trail leg by leaving it straight.
 Reverse Skull Crushers
- Plank position but tension is controlled by the triceps muscle on the press and the relax phase.

Incline Chest Press
- Find an obstacle. Plank body position.  Lower to 90 degrees at the elbows and press to lockout with straight arms.

Sprint Intervals (stairs or hills)
- Set a minimum standard and work towards beating your standard in each training rotation.
Obstacle Work
- Find an obstacle, or obstacles, and conquer it in as many functional ways as possible.
Calf Isolation
- Calves are rarely given the attention they deserve.  Work on lengthening, and strengthening, your calves through resistance work.
Cool Down and Flexibility Work
- Work on lowering your heart rate gradually while using your body heated muscles to gently work out any knots increase flexibility and range of motion.


(as you can see, Jess is extremely capable as an athlete and gymnast.  Set your personal goals and work towards them.  Be a better you!)
