So, I’m now on week 9 of the plan I put together back in September. So far I’ve stuck to everything I put in place and I’ve only missed one run (bloody illness). I decided that the gym would consist of 6 exercises with 5 sets of each covering a full body workout each day.…… Continue reading A Little Update.
A Tough Week.
“Time to change things”, “new gym routine”, “full body workouts” – Just a few of many thoughts and ideas that went through my mind a couple of weeks back. So as you know, I put a new program together last week to challenge myself and push forwards with my goals. Let’s start at the start………… Continue reading A Tough Week.
New PB and New Gym Routine.
I’ve literally got my shit together at the minute and I feel damn good about it. Macros are on point, gym training is going good and running has gone spectacularly well since my knee issues. Right now, the decision to reduce my maximum mileage per run has been one of the best things I’ve done…… Continue reading New PB and New Gym Routine.
I’ve Made A Decision.
I’ve thought long and hard about this and it’s not been easy, but it’s the only thing that makes some sort of sense to me right now. It’s a decision I’m happy with but may still need to be changed again if things don’t go to plan. What I’ve decided is this – I will…… Continue reading I’ve Made A Decision.
On The Mend? Apparently Not…….
This post will contradict itself half way through, but stick with me because I started writing before today’s run. I just didn’t want to edit what I’d already written because I needed to show you & myself how quickly things can change…… I’m going to go out on a limb here and say that I…… Continue reading On The Mend? Apparently Not…….
Where Have I Been?
Wow, it’s been 5 months since I last wrote anything. I have no idea where that times gone but most of it wasn’t good so I just want to leave it in the past. In brief, my head went to a bad place, my left knee doesn’t want to play properly, the marathon didn’t happen…… Continue reading Where Have I Been?
Tweaking The Gym Routine.
It’s time for a change. I need to freshen things up; keep things interesting. It’s not that I’m getting board, it’s more like certain parts of my routine are to familiar and are starting to drag. I also need to progress from an upper body/lower body split, I need more structure. I’ve been reading quite…… Continue reading Tweaking The Gym Routine.
Goals for 2018.
That’s right, not “New Years resolutions” but goals. I stopped making resolutions many years ago because they’re crap and I don’t stick to them. Goals give us something to aim for rather than something to stick to. I’m looking for a result, not a new routine or a new habit. On that note, I’ll keep…… Continue reading Goals for 2018.
Change Will Happen (or time+effort=change).
I’ve thought long and hard about sharing what I’m about to share, so much so that I’ve been writing this for 8 days now. It’s not that I’m a self conscious person, far from it. It’s just that I’ve been on this journey for many years now and what you’ll see below doesn’t represent me…… Continue reading Change Will Happen (or time+effort=change).
Who Made Me Ill?
I hate being ill, who doesn’t? I have no idea what’s going on but I seem to be a breeding ground for germs at the minute. This latest one has taken me out of the game though. No training over the weekend and it’s unlikely that I’ll be going today either. Gutted. The irony is…… Continue reading Who Made Me Ill?
