On a high...

Yes, I'm still on a high after yesterday's discovery.

Activity: weights with Satan
Time: 2pm
Duration: 30mins
Mood/energy: good.

Another Satan's special. An upper body circuit that left my arms and shoulders shaking for hours afterwards. Actually wanted to have a nap when I got back to the office afterwards. Circuit of:
* lowering phase of full push-ups (ie on toes) – those "men’s pushups" are getting closer & closer
* straight arm lat pulldowns
* one ardumbbellll shoulder press whilst standing on a disk
* standing row,
repeated 3 times followed by glute & pec stretching with Satan and 15mins of ITB, glute & calf stretching.

Activity: Pilates
Time: 5.10pm
Duration: 45mins
Classed focused on lateral moves and lots of core and hammie strengthening and stretching. Once again, I left the class feeling composed, relaxed, strong, lean & ready to conquer the world - then I had to go back to work ;-)

A big day tomorrow - another weights session with Satan, a run (without taping my patella, fingers crossed) & (the best part) a visit to the Lindt cafe. Great food and great company. Yep, it's going to be a tough day ;-)

Polar report: still in the box :-(

Don't you just love the feeling you get when you leave the Pilates class? I always feel like my posture has improved about 500%.
Good luck with the tapeless run tomorrow.

Going tapeless a veritable nude-knee run. You are a tease Jen - good luck ;-)

Jen, when you do weights sessions on consecutive days do you work different muscles?

Enjoy the Lindt cafe. I took a photo of my chocolate drink from there with my mobile and its still my phone wallpaper :-)

They say you need protein and carbs after a workout. I think Lindt covers those, doesn't it ? :-)
