The good turnout at last nights training continued, some more new faces showing up along with those from last week.
So a welcome to Henry, Ben and Tom to the senior ranks.
An interesting session, to say the least!
Some caught up on the RFU fitness test they thought they'd missed last week. No chance - coach Steve was on their case and put them through it.
Then the lads were put through some general aerobic and anaerobic conditioning routines. Many and varied - involving wheelbarrows, sandbags, tractor tyres and car tyres. I got a sweat on just watching.
Also the mad Welshman had invited nutrition expert Kirsty Taylor along to test the lads wellbeing; body mass,muscle %,fat %, etc and what caused the most interest - the individual's metabolic age!
Quite a wide range, to say the least. Some smug looks and some white faces!
Thanks to Kirsty for taking the time out to come down.
Plenty to work on me thinks.
NB: The Captain turned up on time this week.
If you didn't understand any of this, feel free to join the party next Tuesday. Be there for 7pm.
