Hi All-
I have been stepping up my workouts to be in top shape for the coming season. Below is workout schedule. Can anyone let me know if I am going in the right direction?

Tuesday: Noon – Lift weights (shoulders, arms)
Evening – Outrigger team practice
Wednesday: Run 30 minutes

I would suggest lifting on your non-paddling days.

Would it be okay to run on the paddling days?

I think it's O.K. to run on your paddling days. It just helps you with more conditioning. I see alot of guys/gals run before or during practices. Just as long as you don't burn your self out. I could be wrong, but personaly don't feel like it negatively affects me. Almost every sport insists in running before practices and games to get the body warmed up and ready. Soccer and baseball includes laps to get the heart rate up. I try not to do more than 4 miles though. And when I do run before practice, it's a lite jog with a mellow pace. Good luck with training.
Alohas!

Another low impact way to warm up the body before a race or practice is skipping rope..Awesome for getting the heart pumping in such a short period of time..If youve never skipped rope..try it ..I guarantee 3 min will be sufficient to get you warmed up.
