summer work outs

Unread postby newPVer » Tue May 15, 2007 1:33 am

so my team was thinking of this. monday, wednesday, and fridays, we surf in the morning for about 2 hours, good upper body strength and its fun, then we go running some steep hills for conditioning, and lifting after that. then tuesdays and thursdays, we jump.

we take most weekends off unless we can find an all comers meet somewhere

too much?-not enough?

not gonna lie, being able to surf some sweet waves, and ride some powder in the mountains all in the same morning isnt half bad...

yeah snow and waves......not in texas lol, but we do go wake boarding, jet skiing, and tubing so we can do some fun stuff, until you bust @$$ trying to jump the board and you get big bruises and a sore back for a while

yeah i know i wish i could go surfing too, but skateboarding is good enough for me, that is the next sport i am good at next to pole vaulting, and football, but who in texas doesn't or hasn't played football it's like the state sport especially since it starts in like 2 months i an excited can't wait to knock the s*** out of people

Well Delaware is relatively the same. Cept we're on a peninsula and have some waves. Most of them aren't big though.

hey, i live on a hill. haha,

but over our spring break, the waves were scary big, like 15-20 foot faces at some of the local beaches. way too big for me. i'll take the 4 footers please...

and not only waves, but sunny skies, 65-85* 90% of the year,

Nice. Delaware faces average holidays. With winters and summers being a little more harsh than most.
