Weights at the gym for an hour.

I had a really good workout. I spent about half the time lifting with friends and we did some new stuff that worked me pretty good. My friend brought his big ball (medicine) again and we worked with that for a while. My favorite exercise is getting across from each other on the mat and then you throw the ball to the other guy and then do a push up. As you come up you catch the ball and then bounce it back. We did this for about 10 minutes total and my arms were wrecked.

Playing with another man's ball = creepy!

haha! I almost said something the same Jun!

Okay, so how in the world do you stay in push up position and play catch? Do you stand up between push-ups to catch and throw or just pull your knees in? Sounds like an extreme workout to me!

I really enjoyed adding in balls to my workout. It was pretty big and heavy and I need to work on my handling skills, but overall it was a great workout.

Rad- You keep your knees on the mat the whole time. So you start with the ball in your hand resting on your knees in an upright position while the other guy does the push up. As he comes up you bounce the ball to him and do your push up while your knees are still on the mat and as you come up he throws the ball back to you. So you never use your feet at all. Make sense? haha.
