Frisbee Training Log - Alex's

I've only ever done hard training once before in my life. It was many times a week, with 4 organised sessions. 2 Just normal waterpolo trainings, one ground fitness and one pool fitness. It was pretty painful, the guy who ran the ground trainings was an ex boxer and extremely crazy, I dont think I've been put through that much pain in a long time, but his sessions were a lot of fun with part of his fitness sessions being games like theres a big ball in the middle of the room you ahve to put it in your box, team build ups etc, pretty good for increasing pain tolerance, speed and strength. Since then I've been pretty lazy.

I've haven't been challenged for a position in any sporting team.
In year 3 I tried out for a school cricket team and failed.
I tried out for a softball team in year 4, made it, I played pitcher and was pretty damn good at it. We won a lot of games.
In year 5 I tried out for a softball team at a new school, I didn't make it this time.
In year 6, I tried out for a school cricket team, we won our zone comp, carried by Jack Ritchie (our state player) that was a fun season, I remember the last game we lost for the Elders Cup. There was a lot of crying when we lost. We had 3 balls to go, they needed 3 runs, 1 wicket left. Ball is bowled, hit up in the air, a guy drops a sitter and starts crying. In the time he cried he missed any chance of a run out. We lost and a lot of people cried.

In year 7, I tried out for a volley ball team, got in, but was too scared to travel out west on trains to play games.
In year 8 I started playing waterpolo for school, a semi-obscure sport.
We had an awesome team, carried by our solid team work and our state player Tyler. Year 8/9 there was homebush, we lost to them in the finals. Year 9/10 we played opens and got dominated as the smallest team. I did manage to score a goal against homebush one game who at the time were a monster sized team with a lot of skill and aggression.
Year 10/11 was an annoying season, our state player t-mac was poached by the 2nds (we were the firsts), had a semi decent season, but came from 4th position to take the zone title. We won Crawford shield, but got Kincumbered in the regionals of state knockout.
Year 11/12 was a lame/average season. Worst final ever.

The point is, I've never been challenged for a position in a team for 6 years.
This will be something new.
I've started training since then.
Started a log as suggested by Piers a few weeks ago.
