How To Train Your Dragon

Greetings Draconians! It's my first post ever since I assume this position as captain. First and foremost, it's a real great honour to be the captain of this FUNTASTIC HOUSE! This House is cool! This House doesn't need much of renovation...just need to put in more furniture...cuz old furniture are being shifted away. Haha.. Ok Ok...serious time!

As you may all know, IMU CUP will commence in August. The last week of August to be more precise. So we have approximately 3 months before the whole thing starts. However, time will not be on our side if we do not prepare ourselves well for the incoming course of events. To address the issue, I will first talk about the VACANCIES FOR CERTAIN SPORTS CAPTAINS :

1) International chess
2) Darts
3) Foosball
4) Netball
5) Scrabble
6) Volleyball

As you can see....We still do not have representative/captains for these sports.Hence, I would need people to step up for this!

The final issue to be addressed here is that, there will be TRAININGS prior to IMU CUP commencement. Therefore, for those who still think it is still early for sports training or preparations, I really hope you can change your mentality on that. This is simply for the sake of saving the trouble of finding people for participation and also to use the available time we have to improve ourselves on the sports that we are going to participate. Some of you will be receiving calls to participate in trainings for certain sports that you have already signed up..including CHEERLEADING haha! (Eg. Adrian will commence Basketball training after his summative his over in late May 2010. I will be commencing the track and field training in June 2010) Hence, I really hope that there's cooperation and understanding towards the situation that we are in. However, one big line to draw is that you are not forced to participate but are ENCOURAGED to! It is sports! No one is forced to do sports! (I THINK :D...I know we are forced to study our asses off....that is sure haha!)


LET's MAKE OUR PREDECESSORS PROUD AND GO A LEVEL HIGHER! LET's WIN THE IMU CUP BABY!!!!!

Track and Field Training Regime

Hey guys,

this goes out to everyone who wants to run for track and field for IMU Cup. I still need loads more runners so pls come for trainings starting on the Monday after Raya at 630pm. But for now, i want you to follow this regime everyday till then. I highly encourage you to follow this for the entire week of the holiday untill sun. the coming sunday just rest and then we'll meet again on Mon.

Morning:

do 3 sets of the following exercises. do each exercise continuously for 45 secs, rest for 2 mins then move on to the next one. repeat this 3 times:

1. Push ups
2. Crunches/Sit ups
3. Star jumps/Vertical frog jumps(squata like a frog and jump as high as you can and return to the same position)
4. Superman(lie flat with hands behind ears and raise them up like reverse sit-ups)
5. 10m sprints

Evening

for the evenings, do a 1.5-2km warm up jog everyday before starting training. and do the proposed trainings on alternate days.

Sprinters:

Include in your warm-up striding exercises. if you don't know what i mean, i'll teach you after Raya. for those who do, pls do them

1. Do 30-60s. Sprint continuously for 30secs and then slow jog for 60secs then repeat immediately after. do for 5-8times depending on fitness.

2. Focussed training. measure a distance of the event you want to run and do timed runs at least 5-8 times. shorter distance sprinters do more reps.

Long Distance Runners(1500m, road relay):

1. Do 30-60s. Sprint continuously for 30secs and then slow jog for 60secs then repeat immediately after. do for 5-8times depending on fitness.

2. do timed long runs up to 3.5km. this is especially for Road Relay runners who need to race 2.9km.

3. if you have a running track near your place, do 1,2,3,4,3,2,1. run 100m, rest for 100m then run 200m, rest for 200m and so on up to 400m then work your way down. this can be done instead of part 1.

I really hope you will train during Raya and we can do more focussed trainings after when we meet again.

Thanks
Sandip
