5/18/09 - Week 5, Day 1 - Monday

At 1:00 p.m., we went to Clinton Middle School and read children's books to 1st grade classes. It was a lot of fun meeting the kids. You can tell how much of a role model that we are to the kids (Mississippi Brilla) and how important it is to set a good example for the kids.

Session 1 (5:30 p.m. - 7:00 p.m.) ~ 90 minutes

We had a light training session tonight. We started with some 3 v 1 transition work and then did some shadow play to goal to work on our build up play. Then, we did some finishing with shots on goal from outside the box combined with crosses and finishes. Finally, completed the session with a few set pieces. My set pieces were bad tonight. I was not finding the sweet spot on the ball at all, but the corners were good. I want to start working on my shooting from set pieces in front of goal.


Session 2 (7:30 - 8:30 p.m.) ~ 1 hour

Rode the SPIN cycle after our light training. Rode for an hour at a good, quick, steady pace. Rode at a high cadence with low resistance. Building the aerobic base.
