A rigorous evening training session

I've just arrived home after what started out as a fairly relaxed session, but turned into a navy seal boot camp kind of event. We had a couple of new people out tonight, someone whose name I can't remember (apart from his forum name, which is 'the one with the face'!), and Ollie, who came out for the first time tonight. From 6pm onwards we showed them a few basic vaults and jumps, and concentrated on helping them with some of the fundamental moves of Parkour. As the evening progressed and we moved around various locations around Manchester, the numbers gradually dwindled. Actually, let me rephrase that: everyone apart from Dave and I decided to leave at about 8:30pm. Due partly to the fact that our legs weren't feeling 100% thanks to the weekends numerous hours of PK, we decided to concentrate on upper body stuff more instead. I'm a bit too knackered at the moment to go into much detail, but we spent a considerable amount of time crawling down a set of concrete stairs on our hands & feet, and then back up again backwards. This is a great exercise for abs & triceps, and on what was perhaps one of the hottest days of the year so far, it was also extremely tiring! I lost count of just how many times we did this after about 4 or 5 times up & down the 30 or so stairs, but one thing is for sure: it was a lot!

I'm off to bed now to rest. Fear not though, because I'll be training again on saturday and sunday this weekend :-)
