APCA Dragons Extra Credit Opportunities‏

Hello Team,

EXTRA CREDIT OPPORTUNITY

As you know that our teammates Andy and Justin is trainer at the Equinox Sports Club in Irvine.

They are willing to invite our team to their group class session as their guest which includes free use of their facilities.

For some this may be inconvenience due to location but it will be great opportunity to get that extra point.

You will get to work out at high-end fitness facility for free and get extra point. I see this as win-win.

All you have to do is attend one of their class for extra point credit.

You’ll need to contact Andy or Justin before attending their classes so they can leave you name at the front desk.

Please text them with your name and date you are attending and mention APCA Dragons team.

You can only attend one-time only for each class so that’s 2 opportunities for up to 2 points.

AT&T APCA Dragons 2015 Home Work #1

Hello Team,

Thank you for coming to our 3rd practice on Saturday.

Here's your chance to earn more points by doing some homework.

Be sure to warm up before exercising.

HOMEWORK

We'll have 2 part home work for this week since you have 2 weeks to do it.

Part 1: Cardio

Can you run/jog for 3 minutes?

Bronze: 4 mph

Silver: 5 mph

Gold: 6 mph

Platinum: 7 mph

Anything equivalent is also fine.

Part 2: General Fitness

You do not have to do all at one time but recommended.

Levels are there to motivate you. You know your body the best. Pick the one that will challenge your body.

Let’s do…Push-Up, Sit-Up, Squat, and Jumping Jacks (Ex: Bronze Level will be 20 + 20 + 20 + 20 = 80 total)

Bronze Level: 20 each

Silver Level: 30 each

Gold Level: 40 each

Platinum Level: 50 each

You can substitute the above exercises with set of Burpees then you do not have to do 4 separate exercises. (Ex: Bronze Level will be 20 Burpees)  Anything equivalent is also fine.

After you complete one of the levels then you can either send me an email, post to our blog at http://apcadragons.blogspot.com/ or post to APCA Dragons Facebook by 5/29 Friday 6pm PT.

If you are receiving this email but should not or do not want to continue receiving then let me know.

Thank you.
