water polo is not for the faint hearted
yes, it's true.
bout yesterday, i went fer waterpolo training..da first for this year. i'm in the school team so i have to train regularly in order to build my stamina and water polo skills. i found out that there is a very, very, very big and painful cost in not training your stamina and strength for water polo over the holidays.
FIRST. we warmed up with 200m freestyle, that's 8 laps. aya so easy 1...can do with goggles also.
8D - me with goggles. turn yer head to the lefty lil bit.
SECOND. we did 8 x 50m water polo style swimming. every like 10 secs between we get to rest. Not bad also...can tahan...
THIRD. 10 X 25M, each lap we have to complete within 35 seconds. WALAU WEIH. last one, we had to sprint some more...
FOURTH...yes it's not over yet...we hav to tread water while holding the ball up high FER A LONG TIME.
FIFTH. glen, which was da water polo king last time..trained me to be goal keeper, cos im da only guy who can probably do it unfortunately...which resulted in beautiful amounts of pain to my thigh muscles. i had to what they call a 'jump', where you tread water like gila until your body's slightly above the water. i had to do it bout 10 times.THEN i had to be goal keeper while the WHOLE TEAM took turns shooting bout 5 times each.
after training, glen asked me to do 100 squats a day. due to the smartness lvl of my brain, i did one set on dat same day of water polo trainin. and 2day. now my mum's worried i might have a limping problem with my leg.
