Fitness 4 All- Clapham

Lambeth Report written by Joel Wiles

10 Fitness seeking GoodGymers increased their fitness with 60 minutes of running focused exercise on Clapham Common.

Great to be joined this week by Winni, Kelvin, Corn and Kiki all the way from Hong Kong!! Trying out a few of the GoodGym moves on their visit to London, maybe even taking a few ideas back to Hong Kong.

With the light fading fast on our last session in this block on Clapham Common we got our running motion on point and drilled! A big focus on knee drive and powering our foot back to the ground to create a powerful and effective stride cycle.

Using some mini hurdles and really getting some serious leg turn over as well as testing our coordination we upped the tempo powering over the hurdles.

To finish off the running portion of the session we split into 2 teams and with batons in hand we worked on our faster running with some slick change overs!

As the light had left us we got stuck into 30 minutes of running specific circuits!! Smashing out 7 minute blocks focusing on our Core, lower body, upper body and Cardiovascular fitness. Top effort and exercise execution by everyone ensured we all got a serious workout in!!

Thank you all for coming along and putting in such great work!!

Next week the Fitness 4 All sessions will be back on the road in a new location, check the website out for more information!

Smooth Running

Dicing with Breath

Two tasks on this lovely summer evening in Islington.

One group popped up to Whittington Park. Aidan describes:

We arrived at Whittington Park after our longer run down Holloway Road. Our fortnightly task awaited us with Martin ready with bin bags and gloves.

The majority of us tackled the 1 o'clock club's garden as we need to keep up our good work of maintaining a weed and nettle free garden for the kids who use the club.

There was also the task of de-weeding the entrance of the main building, keeping it looking great for everyone!

After working hard for twenty minutes what better way to treat ourselves than with some circuits. Everyone got a chance to pick an exercise for everyone else to do whilst they went on a short lap of the field. Although some of the ladies did get a bit lost along the way! We had all the classics; press ups, sit-ups, planking and two types of squatting for good measure. All before rejoining Holloway Road for our run back.

The other group travelled to Barnsbury Community Centre. We've spent a lot of time over the last year helping create a wonderful garden in the disused space behind the centre and we're now just putting the finishing touches to the project for their grand launch on 25th August.

First job was to get gloves out the storage cabinet. Simple, right? Nope. A combination of stupid rain and then stupid heat meant the combination lock for the cabinet had seized up completely. Despite the best efforts of Caroline, Patrick and a pair of pliers it remained stuck. Not to worry: we'd just have to be extra careful.

We spent 25 minutes carrying old pallets and broken bits of wood round to the estate's waste disposal site, having a thoroughly good weed and watering plants. Nice work.

Following the task we played "Dice of Doom" with Simon's new giant foam dice: everybody had a chance to throw the dice and determine the activity that had to be performed for 15 seconds. There were alternate squat thrusts, running high knees, start jumps (LOTS of start jumps), sprints, dreaded burpees (boo) and the elusive jogging on the spot. We then played a game that Caroline made up. Nobody was quite sure what it was.

Back at the pool we had a free stretch, a biscuit and voted on the proper way to eat scones: jam then cream, cream then jam, or Claire's suggestion, butter, jam then cream (which is apparently the traditional Cornish way of doing things)? Jam then cream won by quite a large margin. Some people were disgusted at this - especially Steve - but the people have spoken.

If anybody wants to make scones for next week maybe we could put it to the test.

xxx,
Simon
