Parkrun yesterday and 30km mtb ride today

It's good to start light. Make sure you use proper form and get into the habit of picking the kettlebell up safely while you are working with a light weight.

Here is a link to show how to do a kettlebell swing

If you aren't already part of one, I'd recommend thinking about signing up for a fitness class. You can get exercises and workouts from the internet but it's another thing to have a coach explain the exercises and correct your form plus you get the added benefit of connecting with like minded people in the class

Take a look at Adventure Bootcamp for Women - something like this might be good.

Thanks, appreciate the links and info! I did yoga for a number of years, and spent time with a personal trainer as well as doing Bootcamp previously, so I'm comfortable with form. My problem is time as far as classes go, I just don't have that much of it, and often schedule can be all over the place, so I prefer to be able to do my own thing on my own time. Studies are a massive time drain for me at the moment, once those are done I may well look into boxing again as I enjoyed the few classes I went to last year.

Me on the other hand made the most delish spagbol... Which I enjoyed. So I hereby dub thee as cheat night.

Step goal met for the day, and did 5 minutes lower body kettlebell (pretty much variations on squats... Brutal! ) Now rustling something up on the braai for dinner (thanks load shedding!) ahead of next fasting period starting at 8pm.

Taking a day off although I feel better than I did yesterday morning. I've been stretching whenever I can. Luckily I can sneak in a few Downward Dogs at work

Carried a toddler 400 km across Europe (not all in one go mind you). If you don't have a toddler or access to one then a sack of potatoes would probably work just as well and would likely cry less.

Took it slightly easier in the gym because I had one hellavu afternoon at work. And loadshedding meant no fan. Bloody hot in the garage.

Calisthenics beginners class #3 went down despite the best efforts of Eskom, Bryanston traffic and the weather.
Amongst today's workout, my first attempts at low level Dragon Flag and tuck planche type exercises. Happy Days

Was fighting with the family at home.. So was in a kak mood. Went to gym and made the super circuit pay.



I felt better afterwards and apologized.

 

[PoppieChoffel]

Again I didn't get to do my usual morning walk with colleague, which makes hitting my daily step goal after work quite challenging, but hit it I did! Daily goals met
