Mixin It Up

On a day like today, after a relatively difficult workout, cardio is the best way to continue your progress without over-stressing your muscles. The problem is that in a sport like roller derby, pure cardio will only take you so far. The way derby has evolved into a dynamic and multi-dimensional sport means that just being able to skate every jam is no longer enough. you also have to be able to sprint, stop on a dime, move laterally, and knock another girls fillings out. That is why the workout will be a mix of many different motions today.

Enjoy!
