It’s not good enough. I am a champion, and I will win! Now I’ve got to find a way.
Hello? Can I help you?
I need help, I need to get fitter
and I need to win by any means necessary.
Challenge accepted!
So James, the blokes who have been invited this year are huge. There’s a bloke from
Canada who might as well be the same size as the Rockies. Huge Polish guys. And our
female jouster is beautiful but terrifying and incredibly powerful. I need something
that is going to allow me to compete with these men mountains.
Alright so we’re looking for heart, some determination, and definitely some aggression.
None of which I really have.
I’ve got just the thing. Really? Come on, hit the bag.
Right.
So we’re going to be using the prowler next, ok so we’re going to use to rope to pull in
so working a lot of forearms and a lot of upper back muscles. Good for your stabilising
for the jousting. And then we’re push it back out in a sprint style so working lots of legs and
stamina as well. So let’s get on with it! Let's go.
3…2…1 let’s go! Pull it in. Pull pull pull! That's it hand over hand, get that body moving!
Pull pull pull pull! Now let’s sprint it out, push push push. Go go go go go go. Run run run run! And time.
Let’s go back again pull it in pull it in!
Full body into it. Come on!
Let’s go Lancelot!
Ahhhhh! Crikey
Nice.
Okay so we’re moving onto the battleropes now
so we’ll do a few different patterns keeping the rope moving continuously
Heart rate up, lots of shoulders stability for the lance and a lot of core stability as well.
Excellent, as many as I can do as quick as I can?
Yep, we’re going to go for time. Okay let’s go.
So pick the ropes up, we’re going to start with an alternate whip, so go go go go. Faster than that.
Now let’s go doubles, so full extensions right up pull right down.
Nice! And relax.
ARRRGHHHH! YEEEAHHHH!
Andy – hope you’re not too tired for this?!
You’ve got to be joking?! What am I supposed to do with that?!
We’re going to flip-out. *Laughs* show me!
Let’s go so up up up, drive drive drive, go go go go!
There we go nice. Let’s go so you drive forward drive forward run through it.
Shove it over boom get back in let’s go.
Stop
Eh?
HAMMERTIME!
Alright big man that’ll do you for today, how you feeling?
Ruddy awful. But I know defeat will feel worse.
So, same again in the morning at 6am?
*sigh* alright. See you t’*groan* Let’s go!
