Hey guys, guess what? you guys won't wanna join my basketball team's physic workout that my coach had planned for us. After i did those workouts in bukit batok nature reserve yesterday, i felt like i was in hell. Fortunately God saved me. Actually, it wasn't only I who suffered like that, i believe others too. We went the entrance of the nature reserve where there was a super long and steep hill and on top was some war memorial thing plus a super long flight of steps. When we had arrived, and warmed up, we started a jog down the approximately 200- 300m or more hill, then up to the inside of the park near the rent houses which was about another 200m or so, then down the hill again, and finally, up. its was already a torturing run, which caused our muscles to become to exhausted. Next, it was time for the sprints. That was the killer one. First sprint was up the steepest part of the slope for 1 lamb pole distance, which is about 30m. At that moment, i felt my butt and quads were extremely tired. After doing the 2nd and 3rd sprint with a distance of about 60m or 90m, my butt quads and hamstrings was already cramping. I started to feel giddy also. Then, it was the sprint up the flight of steps in at least 35 secs. It was the minimum to pass. I'm not sure about my timing but i was sure that the moment i stopped the sprint, I was like some crazy man, desperate to get out of the burning hell. My head was spinning, gastric juice was erupting, body was burning. I walked down the steps slowly, with my eye balls rolling, wobbly legs crossing each other and i realised i was moving side to side. I really wanted to just roll down the steps, it was so difficult going down. I just couldn't think properly. My brains just wanted to explode. There was a problem with the blood circulation. In my mind, I just said "God help me". At last I got down that 'great wall'. I promise you guys don't wanna get yourself so tired up a hill cause you'll 'die' from going down. LOL. I was seriously desperate for water and you know what? there wasn't hardly any water left. I drank a few sips and just laid down on my bag. Minutes later, i slept for while. By the way, i vomited water while climbing down the steps. I handle the giddiness. i woke up and sat up. When the blood was somewhat circulating again, my whole body went numb for a while. I literally couldn't feel anything. I stood up and started to walk and the circulation came back. I felt better. Walking down the slope was another challenge. My calves were cramping as i walked down. My brother, Bart and I walked down with our arms around our shoulders. My eye balls were like rolling up, down, left and right. Bart asked me a few math questions like 1+1, and 9+4, etc. for the 9+4 question, i took quite some time to answer. However I started to get well, giddiness got less and i could answer tougher math questions. haha. Well the training was over... and my bro and i walked home, while others took bus home. That was one the toughest trainings I've had. nonetheless my team will be doing more of it. I think I'll be okay after adapting to it. Labels: Wanna try? |
