Last nights practice...

Practice last night was a killer. We had 4 stations set up. Station 1 was the hip bump. That's where you want to eventually take over your opponent by bumping them with your hip. You get real close to them and cross your leg over theirs them bump their thigh with your hip and try to knock them over or at least out of the way. Station 2 was the whip it. Yep, just like the movie. That's where you have your jammer and she grabs your arm and you basically give her a toss and it gives her some momentum and speed. Station 3 was blocking. Make sure you're in your derby stance and keep those elbows in girls. If you have chicken wings, you will get a penalty. Do everything in your power to keep those arms down. Station 4 was jumping. Again, keep those knees bent and jump. I personally fell both times I jumped over the cones. First time was forwards, and I bruised my hands and my boob, second time I jumped, I fell backwards on the side of my ass and hip, although, I have bruised the crack of my ass, I'm developing a bruise on my hip too. But it's all good.

I enjoyed the stations and it'll be brutal the more we do, but it's a great workout.

Take care!!!
