Thursday

Tried to not forget chin ups (which are hard to do in the gym at work - people don't like you using the bench press equipment to do chin ups!)

Tuesday Gym

Didn't have a lot of motivation last night, but still managed to make it to the gym and have a good workout. I completed the deadlifts after the leg press, so had very little energy to do more than 11!

There is a new gym opening up in Kilburn which is close and looks good & cheap. Once back from the states in March, I'll sign up, so I can deadlift heavier weights and do proper squats, rather than just using the leg press machine.

Still looking for a good swimming pool nearby that doesn't cost a fortune, plus trying to book a squash court can be a nightmare!

Running time

Ran home from work, and bumped into W at the station, so walked and talked for a bit before carrying on. Time therefore not relevant! 7.5km, felt ok!

Update

Friday to Sunday evening was a weekend away at Center Parcs. The beauty of going there means rather than just eating and drinking during the weekend, I played squash, went for a walk, went to boxercise, went bowling (yes I got a turkey) and went swimming - along with eating healthily all weekend.

Nice and restful!

Now back to running and gym time!

Weds evening gym time

Focused on form rather than weight or reps but completed 4 sets each of between 5-8 reps for:

Run home

Bit slow as taking it easy and wearing a bag but not too bad.

Rest Up

With the change in weather, everyone is coming down with something, and I can feel myself fighting off a cold or something! So worked from home today and avoided pushing myself too much.

Press Up 32 - 33 - 31 - 35 - 20

Astro Ultimate

Monday night has now become AstroTurf Ultimate night, where I play 5-a-side Ultimate, with very little stopping. Great for sprints and cardio.

60 min - sprints, throws and jogging!

Sunday

Was meant to be out playing ultimate in winter league today but rain stopped play... So some indoor core work instead, a roast chicken and lots of sport on tv!
