Football Field Conditioning

Conditioning day and due to uncertain weather for the rest of the week I made sure to get a good football field version in. Later this week I will do a kettle bell conditioning session. This workout also more directly applies to running and that is something that I can’t neglect. I know that I also have to work on strength but that won’t do me any good if I run out of gas due to poor leg conditioning.

I give myself a plus for today’s workout since I did five rounds with the heaviest weight I have worked up to and then finished up with 30 burpees.

Warm Up:
