Day 18 of the push-up ladder. 171 to buy in/catch up.

As they say, the only constant is change. This change, I think, will be for the better. Going forward, we are adding some stuff to the TitanFit mix. We are doing so to put the 10 elements of fitness (see below) to the test. That and to get out of the gym every now and again.

  • Cardiovascular/respiratory endurance - The ability of body systems to gather, process, and deliver oxygen.
  • Stamina - The ability of body systems to process, deliver, store, and utilize energy.
  • Strength - The ability of a muscular unit, or combination of muscular units, to apply force.
  • Flexibility - the ability to maximize the range of motion at a given joint.
  • Power - The ability of a muscular unit, or combination of muscular units, to apply maximum force in minimum time.
  • Speed - The ability to minimize the time cycle of a repeated movement.
  • Coordination - The ability to combine several distinct movement patterns into a singular distinct movement.
  • Agility - The ability to minimize transition time from one movement pattern to another.
  • Balance - The ability to control the placement of the bodies center of gravity in relation to its support base.
  • Accuracy - The ability to control movement in a given direction or at a given intensity.

Workout
50 - Jump shots - 1 burpee (yea burpees), or exercise(s) that are hard for you (e.g. ring dips, jump squats, etc...) for every miss!

While using the "glass" is allowable, all shots must begin from OUTSIDE the paint/lane area.

Here's hoping I do fewer than 50 burpees (yea burpees) today.

I like it!

I think we should do something like this on every "rest day".

First question, where are we shooting hoops @ today?

Oh...and another idea.

CrossFit HORSE.

I.E. - I chose 25 consecutive DU's to start things off. If I succeed you will probably have an "H".

If I don't, the next exercise is your choice and I'm sure it'll be Bench Press or 10X BW Deadlift. Now I have an "H".

You get the idea.

After thinking this through, maybe we should play "PIG" instead of "HORSE"?

well CF does not improve your jump shot, that's for sure.

missed 31 of 50. More than half of the 19 i did make were bank shots.

next time 75 shots and all of the Burpees (yea Burpees) are done AFTER the jumps shots
