Daddy Daughter Monday: Legs & Glutes

Daddy Daughter

PREPARE YOURSELF

Amelia and I get through the Monday of week 5 quarantine with some new leg & glute exercises to keep us challenged and engaged!

THE WORKOUT:

  • BEGIN: with simple Calf Raises (5 each leg)
  • THEN: move to some straight leg leg lifts.
  • NEXT: get on all fours for another variation of straight leg lift.
  • FINALLY: we put it all together with a compound movement to really engage the leg muscles.

All exercises are 5 reps each leg and all should be completed slowly & smoothly with control. Enjoy!!

This Weeks HUGE SHOUT OUT:
Walking.
Although I know we practice running…in times of change I often find nothing soothes more than a nice quiet walk.  So this week…3 weeks into social distancing…I want to give a  Shout Out to just taking a quiet walk.  I hope you all are safe and sane and I hope you get the time to just take a simple walk this week…It’s worth it!!!  


Happy, Healthy & Fit.
…See You ASAP!!!

With the gyms all closed we will be creating New Workouts and utilizing your weight vest a bit more:)
It will be an adventure for sure!!  ALWAYS REMEMBER:

“You are stronger than you think you are!”



 
PREPARE YOURSELF.

It’s all about perspective sometimes.  In these days of Social Distancing we are either finding some sort of success OR gaining a lot of valuable experience.  

CHOOSE YOUR FOCUS WISELY.

I know it can be hard…but as with running…even a bad run is still better than no run at all.  Focus on the things you can control, dare I say:  The Fundamentals?  Things like family, friends, faith…REACH OUT!  There can be Great Value in these times if we choose to Breathe Deep…Keep a Strong Posture…Keep our Eyes Up…Keep Moving!  The crest of the hill…The Summit of Your Mountain…It will arrive, and although I don’t know exactly what you’ll see from the top I know we will all be stronger on the other side!!!

Have a Happy and Blessed Easter…

Call, Text, or Facetime:)  We love to keep in contact and trust us:  We need your support/messages and phone calls as well!!!

Through ups and downs…Easy Runs and Tough Workouts…Leapfrog is here to help:)

BELIEVE IN YOURSELF.

Stay Safe and Sane…

KEEP MOVING FORWARD

PREPARE YOURSELF.

That’s a mantra here at Leapfrog!  We often speak of it at practice…Prepare Yourself isn’t just about logging the miles and the workouts…  

Preparation is a full circle.  It’s everything going on in life and knowing that life is fluid.  It’s constantly in motion…day to day…workout to workout…night to night with sleep…meal to meal with nutrition…it’s your family…your job…your friends.

When it comes to training there are more than just workouts to consider.  At Leapfrog we believe in QUALITY over QUANTITY and we hammer out the Fundamentals.  We want to always make the most out of what we have.  We take our knowledge of Run Fundamentals and then apply them to each athlete within the parameters of that individual.  We want to know our athletes…We want to be able to see the signs beyond the miles run.  We look for energy levels…posture…enthusiasm…stress…fatigue.  

We plan our training with the availability to modify when needed to address each persons specific needs.  It’s more about CAPACITY than ABILITY.  I want to ensure you always have the CAPACITY to both Train & Compete!  That’s the physical ability, the mental confidence and the emotional energy to perform and achieve!!  It’s personal…it’s a relationship…it’s a commitment and a journey.  

I like to take this time to invite you start your journey with Leapfrog if you haven’t yet…and challenge you if you’ve been a part of Leapfrog!  I invite you to JOIN LEAPFROG 3 mornings a week for our local group practices!!  It’s here that we not only build strong fundamentals, master the basics but we also build strong friendships and supportive group dynamics. I would also like to take this opportunity to Challenge You!  SIGN UP for LEADVILLE!!!  “You ARE Stronger than you think you are!”  “You can do more than you think you can!”  Accept the challenge of running at 10,000 feet!  Is it easy???  NO.  Is it work??  YES!  Can you finish???  I BELIEVE IN YOU!!!  Take the challenge…Sign Up and I promise we will get you there…up to 13,000 and back to the FINISH LINE!!  

BELIEVE IN YOURSELF.

DESTINATION RACE sign up for The Leadville Marathon & Heavy 1/2.  It’s taking hill running to the mountains and giving everyone the opportunity to truly test your limits.  I hope you will consider joining us for the challenge that is Leadville, CO to take on the Mountains!!

Cheers Everyone!!  

Be Strong, Wise, Healthy & Fit in 2020 & Beyond.
 
All it takes is some discipline & your commitment to showing up to practice…


CHEERS!!

 Making the choice to Be Committed in 2020 & Beyond!


RUN WITH PURPOSE

PREPARE YOURSELF.

PLAN AHEAD.  BE DISCIPLINED.  SHOW UP.  Leapfrog offers 3 practices each week…Your Results Will Be In Proportion to Your Practice.

I look forward to seeing everyone at a Leapfrog Event this week!  In addition to the paid training listed above we also offer a weekly free Bike Ride:  Tuesday 6:30a.m. Bike Skills Ride followed by coffee.   Details can be found on the website under the events tab:)
