July update

Time for a July update!

The Friday class at AMAG has changed direction again we are training to a different theme. Its still sweat-filled and fuelled by determination and power.
Entertaining and challenging warm up and mobility / body weight drills precede the 2x 10min rounds where we blitz...
1. swing variations (30secs) with bag work variations of Thai kicks and knees (30 secs)
2. swing variations (30secs) with explosive push ups or squat/lunges(30secs)
Both 10 Min's rounds are very challenging and I think we were trying to figure out which was the recovery round! Nah. The swings round, the bag work round and the explosive body weight round are all performed with massive levels of energy! No recovery round this time!

The second half of the 1.5 hour class is circuits based. Teamed with a partner, we use the kettlebell, punchbags, medicine balls and jab pads for 2 min rounds. Awesome!

Sunday public class is still running, but with very low attendance. (everyone enjoying the summer obviously!) AMAG students take the chance of a second KB workout though which is ace. The class is still suitable for all and is not combat-based.
With an hour at hand, we are performing good solid mobility work before timed sets of swings (that prove to be somewhat challenging!), 1 single progressive TGU per arm (core!) and a fun timed set achieving the clean and press (single/double KB) and jumping rope, with reducing amounts of time. Feeling great for winding down the weekend!
