Dodgeball

As a festive treat for my clients I hired the sports hall at Kirk Hallam School where I do group sessions for an hour of dodgeball.

After a little warm up we set up the foam balls and off we went. teams of 3 or 4 depending who was in which game. Just like laser tag I took the GoPro camera with me to get some footage of the day. We didn't keep score as we changed the teams most games, it was all about having fun.

It was very surprising how energetic it was, when we finished all of us were dripping with sweat and by that evening I had messages of people starting to ache already. When you think about what we did for an hour it shouldn't have been too much of a surprise really:-

Running around
Jumping
Ducking
Throwing
Catching
Diving around
For an hour is always going to be tiring. Add to that last dancing to the cheesy music we had on it was a good calorie burn.

This just highlights that exercise doesn't need to be a gym session, there's so much more out there for improving your health and fitness. As highlighted in the blogs this year, walking, running, sports, activity days all get you off the sofa and active. To see the different things I offer for Personal Training visit my website - www.adamfretwellpt.co.uk There is also a newsletter sign up link then you can receive information about other days out like laser tag, walks, and dodgeball in 2015.

The two videos below are just a couple of the 9 videos made from the day. To view others visit my YouTube channel - https://www.youtube.com/user/AdamFretwellPT



Once again thanks to Alistair Carvell for the music I used on one of the videos, the other music was that on the GoPro software. Bring on more activities in 2015.
