Civic Boot Camp - 31/8/10 

Last day of Winter and despite it looking miserable outside, it was quite mild at the lake. The girls were again super jovial, interpreting Claires dream, scientifically analzying my rotation order, squashing worms, and watching the S.A.S run around spying on canberra since no-one is in charge. Along with the super discussions went alot of leg work! 800m runs, plyo work for the legs and cardio exercises. Civic is off on a cracking pace for this boot camp, keep up girls, you will have awesome results from the effort you put in.

Who would have thought we would bust out the tyre this early in the Boot Camp!  The girls stepped up massive today and not even a slight whinge when they saw the tyres.  Poor Annie had to drag Kristy and the tyre and went hard with the encouragement of the girls.  Romina looked like she didn’t even have a tyre on and Bri was hammered on the step, still sore from Saturday.  Great way to kick off the week girls. 

Players player points go to Julie 3 points, Annie 2 points and Erin 1 point.

There will be some sore legs and arms after today’s session.  Plyometrics for the legs and some quick sprint work had the girls competitive streaks come out.  Big explosive movements and lighting fast sprints, the girls were putting in 110% effort.  Kristy raced a few of the girls and they were not far on her heels if not even with her.  Sal was chasing Annie and Bri chasing Jen and it was all just a little bit exciting.  The suns out and here comes Summer!!

What a finish to the Tuggies girls first week! We had an awesome adventure day down at Pine Island this morning, and for the first time ever, the girls didn’t want to get off the sand hill! We had cheerleading routines for the sprint races, and the girls were ripping up that beach like they were on the AIS Track. The girls had plenty of opportunities to bond this morning as we shuffled them up between partners 5 times. By the time 20 sweaty tired women started the trek back up the hill to the cars they were in full laughter again, and getting to know the most intimate details about their new best friends for the next 8 weeks. Some things definately Jenna and I don’t want to know before breakfast…..

Player of the day points go to: Margie (3), Michelle (2) and Tracey (1).

Boxing – Thursday 26/8/10

Boxing 27/8/10 

The week has just been crazy hyper at all sessions, and Boxing was no exception. Patty returned and of course gave me her ritual strip tease, we welcome Jason to the crew, and poor Kate is pretty sure her arms are still vibrating! And awesome session, some super sprinting and combo work, and we finished off with Ben Cousins abs at the end. God help this group when we get outside, they are busting for some fresh air, it’s going to be like Red Bull sponsored them.

Good luck to Helga and Lach who take off on their 100km race tomorrow morning! We will all be thinking of you.    :)

Who took my quiet Civic girls and sent me the most hyperactive people I have ever met.  The girls were crazy today and it may have been the moon who knows but they were super funny!  Under cover today due to the rain or was it due to me straightening my hair and not wanting it to go fuzzy again, who knows but the girls were put through a boxing session and loved it.  Lauren tried out here new kick boxing move on me and broke my rib and Kristy partnered up with Jean Bean and couldn’t stop laughing.  Great session today with girls and with one week down Kristy and I are super excited!

Tugg Boot Camp 25/8/10 

The girls were in for an upper smashing today, and with some ab work and sprints thrown in to rest the arms, there shouldn’t be too much complaining tomorrow. Of course the Wednesday conversations kicked off in fine form. Jenna missed the highlight of how exactly bras are supposed to be done up, how felicitie has got it down to a fine art and how I haven’t quite hit puberty yet with my little mosiquito bites. There is definately only one way for these 25 women to know each other really well, and clearly it will be the wednesday chat day!

Player of the day points kicked off this morning. It’s going to be an awesome competition over the next 8 weeks, the winner getting themselves the summer boot camp for free! Todays points went to Kylie (3), Julie (2) and Felicitie’s boobs (1).  Well done girls!

Civic BC 24/8/10 

The girls were super smily this morning, even with the chilly lake wind we were pumped to be outside. A 12 min VO2 Max test was waiting to get them warm anyway. The girls absolutely flew along the lake, everyone finishing with awesome results.  With already this level of fitness behind the girls leading into Spring, lordy help them come XMas! These girls will be set to move into the A.I.S   :)
