The boxing session I went to yesterday was tough! Something the runners will appreciate! We went to the docks to do roadwork on a bridge with LOTS of steps!!
- Sprint up steps (one at a time), skim down x 5
- Sprint halfway across bridge (200m? ish) jog back x 5
- Sprint halfway across bridge (200m? ish) jog back x 5
- Stride up steps (as many as you can at a time), skim down x 5
- Steady paced run approx 3 miles
- Sprint up steps (one at a time), skim down x 2
- Jog across bridge
- Sprint up steps (one at a time), skim down x 2
Wobble back to gym!!
3 x 3 minutes on heavy bag with 1 min rest
Enjoyed this but my legs are feeling it today, I've got really sore shins, I'll have to be careful, I didn't have my trainers so I did all this running in my boxing boots which wasn't exactly ideal... need to remember to take my trainers to the gym!
Runners: do you incorporate steps into your training? I'd love to have access to a big stadium where I could run the steps!
