GB team training

The day after the comp at inverness we had a training at scotts. Luckily I got the chance to go to it because there werent that many people from the team there that time so i managed to get a place even though i am not in the team. Was so pleased to take part... but the pain after training... was something quite different, even something as simple as walking up the stairs became a mission after training! It was such a great day though. We went to the beach in the morning for some seriously hard warm up! ( not even sure i would call it a warm up! ) my legs were in agony after wards. we did lots of things at the beach for example we had a rope and we teamed up in 2 and the person infront had to have the rope round them and the person behind them had to try and hold them back whilst they were running making the leg muscles work ten times as hard as normal.

After that we went back to the wall and had a bit of a work on our technique, this was not so bad but had some good ways to inproove heal hooks and precision. We then went on to do some work on specific muscle... such as wheelbarrow racing! we did this for a few times and we then went on to do it up the stairs... rather a dreading thought and the fact that scott kept saying dont knock all your teeth out and i had literaly just got my braces out i wasnt enjoying the thought of possibly loosing teeth! but it all went ok nobody lost any teeth. so after just normally going up the stairs we had to do a puch up and then we could move up a step, this was increadibly hard!!

After doing this we went for a session on the roof but this was not an ordinary session on the roof this was backwards. We climbed up to the point where it reaches the roof and then climb out a little bit and then we would have to turn around and then climb feet first and this was soo unbelievably hard at points it was crazy! to say the least! at the end of the day we warmed down with some streches and such. It was a great session and i dont thing i will ever forget the pain that came the day after but i think i would do it all again if i had to. Thanks alot to scott for this amazing training session!
