Work Capacity Test



This last Thursday the class did a pretty tough work capacity session and I was so impressed with how well everyones base fitness has gotten over the last 2 months. I have had a very consistent turnout so I figured they all would be psyched to push a little out of their comfort zone. The only recovery within the 20 minutes that the athletes had was sit-ups, which is not much recovery. The fastest person to finish finished the set in 16 minutes. The three exercises consisted of 5 Curtis Ps into 400m run and into 10 weighted sit-ups. The athletes had to complete 5 rounds. I recorded their time and I am going to retest them in 3 weeks to see if their strength and recovery improves.
