Power Gym

Early! with a turnout of nearly 12.

The trainer put us through a fairly intense warmup of lunges, plyometric pushups, single-leg squats, and squat jumps. Next up was 2x(10 deadlifts, 10 jump shrugs) at 99lbs. Ladder drills came next, and finally a bunch of single- and double-leg jumps for distance. It was a pretty good workout, but nothing too strenuous--presumably because the trainer is getting a feel for what kind of condition we're in and getting us to learn the movements. For fun, when we were putting the weights away, I clean-and-pressed my 99lb and tried to do an overhead squat, but couldn't quite lower to parallel. Maybe with a little less, and with a spotter.
