Today was challenging. The morning workout was 2.5 hours of aerobic swimming and sprint kicking. This afternoon was a 1 hour lifting session, followed by a burst speed set of only 1800 yards. It was mostly bucket work. "Buckets" refer to a large aluminum structure which has an intricate pully system and a 20 gallon drums filled up with water. You strap a belt on your waist and because of the pully system, you are able to pull the cord a full 25 yards/meters with significant resistance. It was a tough practice, but at the same time, not really that difficult. This can mean only one of two things:
- The Coaching staff just feels like: Hey, lets lay off these guys for ONCE in their lives, no need for EVERY day to be difficult.
- The Coaching staff is giving us one moderately easy day, and they will DEMOLISH us tomorrow.
I'm going with the FAR more probable scenario, which is option #2. Team: Brace for impact.
