We were running so fast, we were... that's right, we were haulin' ass!
Well, two weeks passed since I had attempted the 40 yard dash. I ran it in 4.9 seconds, unofficially (NFL players get timed by lasers and official gadgets). I felt like I could definitely improve my time. and with my kinda short attention span and complete lack of patience, I gave myself two weeks to do just that!
My plan? Start doing more leg work, work on form, perfect my start, work on my explosivity! It seemed simple to me.
I kind of did some of that stuff. I did some jumping lunges in a park one day while my laundry was washing. Did lots of jump squats, some jump rope, core work… anything that I thought could increase my speed.
Let’s be honest though… 2 weeks is not enough time for a fit person to train and recover and drastically increase their time. But it was great motivation.
The two weeks passed and The Butcher and I hit the field again. See the video!
We will be back. Very soon. This stuff is just too much fun. I mean, old dudes were in AWE of us. It was AWEsome.
Do stuff,
Mike
