My Workout Today: 4 on 4 Soccer09Mar08
Submitted by Louis Moore’s Build a Better Body Blog
Today I wanted to do something different for my cardio workout, so I played soccer.
I rounded up a group of friends of mine at the YMCA and organized a pick-up game of 4 on 4 soccer. I kinda got the feeling they were itching for a change besides the treadmill too, so there was plenty of players anxious to play.
Even though we used a smaller size field (youth soccer), it involved a lot of running, and I mean anaerobic sprints. I estimate I burned at least 1,200 calories in the hour that we played. And now as I write this post at 9:30 p.m. drinking a Tecate, I really feel the DOMS (Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness).
None of us are really good at soccer. But it sure was a heck of a lot of FUN and a super great workout. Try it on a smaller field 4 on 4!
