I was planning on hitting the gym on Wednesday, but instead went to Ka-Pow! midweek training. It was a good session even if it started raining about half an hour in.
We started with a warm up and then, because Timmy wanted to do some sprints before going into drills, we did a 6 Huck drill adaptation.
Usually on the 6 Huck drill, we do a 5 metre shuttle with 3 pressups before throwing a huck, 6 times (1 open side flick, 1 break side flick, 1 open side backhand, 1 break side backhand, 2 straight up mark hucks).
Since we had only limited players and discs, but wanted to do plenty of running we adapted it to 4 hucks upwind with the shuttle (1 open side flick, 1 break side flick, 1 open side backhand, 1 break side backhand) then a roughly 50 yard sprint to where the hucks were aimed before throwing 4 hucks downwind with the shuttle and another 50 yard sprint.
We moved on to some technical leading pass drills with a defender, throwing to open side and break side cuts with both way marks.
We then moved on to some iron man mini (3v3) which at times was sloppy due to tired legs and the rain, but was mostly high intensity.
Today I went to Yoga and the session was pretty ideal for me with a heavy focus on poses strengthening/stretching hamstrings (which I've been having a little soreness with lately) and shoulders (which I've had injuries to in the past). Felt good to get back to Yoga and Hamstrings definitely felt a little looser after the session.
Friday I will have off (apart from cycling) so I go into this weekend's Ka-Pow! training fresh and fighting fit!
Really looking forward to this weekend, because I know that Pichler has some really interesting plans for Saturday's session, I'm really looking forward to training on Sunday as we're using 3G again (with the idea being that we'll have to play on 3G at nationals if we make Semi finals) and because the Saturday evening social sounds like a lot of fun!
