Fitness Testing

Long time no blog, again. So this blog post is way overdue.

Quick Update:

• I have not lost/nor gained any weight since coming back to school
• Softball season ended for the fall season. We now have strength and conditioning once a week on monday mornings along with a coinciding strength workout two days a week
• I am adding this to my normal workout
• I biked today for the first time in a good couple of months. It felt good, but not as good as when I elliptical for the same amount of time
• We did exercise testing in strength and conditioning this morning, I was rather bad

Going off that last bullet point here is what I did for our quick testing, which is what I will work on getting better:

• Vertical Jump: 14 inches
• I hope to get at least two more inches
• but I can still easily do a box jump on the largest box, I just cannot jump straight up
• Standing Long Jump:
• 68 inches
• I am actually kind of impressed with my score, though I think getting another 2-5 inches is a good start. 
• 60 feet sprint
• 3.37 seconds fastest time
• yeah, wayyyyy tooooo slow for my sport, so I am hoping to get to a 3.15 and under by the end of the preseason
• Push Ups
• sadness
• 5 on my toes as we had to practically touch the ground
• 17 on my knees before they began hurting too badly
• Plank Hold
• 50 seconds
• I am going to aim to double that
• Side Plank
• 30 seconds both sides
• will work to double both

There is my testing and my goals for this upcoming month with that. The sprinting may not be possible, but the rest is rather attainable if I work at it.
