Boston YMCA in the 1890's
The photo was taken a the Boston YMCA in the 1890's; if you look closely you can see one row with the medicine balls above their heads preparing to throw to the other line.Tuesdays group consisted of Bruce, Craig & Stephen with the 4 kg/8.8lb. ball. It was warm and muggie, lots of sweating, fortunatly the day cooled off later though. Robert let us all know he couldn't make it but we have not heard from Tad in a couple of weeks. Bruce was still being tentative because of his sore ribs; injured in a skateboard crash. Craig's form has really improved but today he was trying to coast. Bruce kept after him. And, Stephen showed he still has some stamina from his long distance running background. Bruce had hoped Craig would really wear Stephen out so he could take it easy by catching Stephen, but it didn't work, Stephen rotates about 20+ reps each set. Bruce did discovered that by relaxing his arms and letting his trunk do the work his ribs were less painful. We'll see after Thursdays workout.
