I'm a big fan of Vern Gambetta.
I've used his leg circuit progression with my athletes for years with great results. As part of my "back to basics" theme for the spring/summer I'm doing the routine myself as a way to build some strength to help me as I get into what I hope will be some significant quality training in preparation for the Grand Rapids Half Marathon in Oct.
What I should not have done though is this: do day 1 of the routine and then immediately go for a 5 mile run. Holy rubber legs Batman! This morning? Legs. Trashed.
The really funny part is that T tried to tell me that it wasn't a good idea. Need to learn to listen to that intelligent woman.
