Today we got after it right away after warming up with some shoulder mobility drills and samson stretch. Today we learned squats. First we practiced by putting the knees against the wall. This forces the hips to go back first, keeps the weight on the heels and makes it impossible for the knees to come past the feet. This immediately exposes weaknesses in the hips, lower back etc. In short, this is a great exercise to teach proper squat form. Then we headed down to the weight room to throw some weight around. Everyone's form looked good and form improved immensely. What was important was getting proper depth before adding weight. Then it was time to hit the workout. The one destructive on the lower body.

Overhead Walking Lunge, air squats
Pohl: 5:24 (45#)
Ryan: 7:27 (45#)
Caleigh: 10:15 (20#)
Charity: 10:15 (16#)
Pohl smoked this workout and I cannot imagine it being done much faster. Ryan looked strong throughout. Charity battled residual soreness and finished well. It was Caleigh's first time and she looked great. I think she will be back for more. Overall, it was a great effort form everyone.
