Conditioning

Chris - Resisted RunWe truly believe that the best way to get strong is to lift heavy weights and the best way to get conditioned is to practice low skill movements that are safe at high intensity.  Some of our favorite conditioning tools at SCS are the airdyne, rower, sleds, resisted runs, burpees, conditioning ropes, sandbag work and farmers walks.  When you try to do everything at once you will undoubtedly get weak, unconditioned, overtrained, and injured.  Keep it simple- Legs, push, and pull.  Strength train, then condition.  Finish with trunk work regularly.  Stretch.

you think you can create a link on your website so that we can all track the top lifts for each category on the wall while we are away from the gym?

I like that idea. We can update the site periodically with all the top scores. That way you know when you have to push it (at least a little) while you're away to stay on top:)

My new goal is to stay at least within 100lbs of all Andy's lifts
