Hill Sprints @ 5:45am! No excuses!

I'm going to try to do some conditioning 3x a week (Monday, Wednesday and Friday) @ 5:30am in the morning.


Today, I took a weighted back pack with 35lbs and ran some hill sprints.

I ran 8 of them. Nothing too hard.


For those of you who say you don't have time to lift weights or run, MAKE some time for it. It doesn't have to be everyday, start with 1 or 2 days a week. Set some obtainable goals and then take action! When you reach your goals, set higher goals!

1. Pause Squats

135x5
