*Updates:
-Today's class will meet at 12:30 due to Dr. Chris's presentation "Sitting on your a%$ is hazardous to your health." Please come at 11:30 and BRING YOUR PARENTS!! then work out at 12:30.
I want to take a second to talk about intensity. What is it, and how do we define it? Intensity is Power, its very simple. Intensity is defined by the amount of work you can complete in a given time. The more work in a shorter time, the more intense is the workout. GREAT! now that's cleared up, but what about the symptoms of intensity. Increased heart rate, sweating, nausea, the gripping urge to stop and slow down, DISCOMFORT!
How do we know when its too intense? The answer is we don't. Intensity is personal. What we want is for each person to go as intense as form allows, and then as intense as is physically and PSYCHOLOGICALLY possible. You may be able to go harder, but mentally you can't get there, and thats okay. However, we want you to be looking for your boundaries in these workouts. Finding them will create intense discomfort, but finding calmness and composure when your heartrate is jacked and your mind is screaming for you to stop will translate into composure when under stress in your sport. SO GO HARD IN THESE WORKOUTS!! Can't wait to see you fantastic athletes again.
