A BIG BIG HELLO TO ALL FROM MY NEW ABODE!!
What a stressful few days! I hate moving house! But now we have made across to the other side of Belfast, to our bigger, damp-free home 😀 The cats have been pretty stressed too, it seems that Tim has been the worst affected as he has been in hiding for the last 3 days 🙁 Poor boy LOL
After 3 days off training and eating rubbish (because we don’t yet gave a fridge), I notice a big difference in my strength and my energy levels!
The Workout
The workout itself is 21 minutes long, it is interval training. There are 3 rounds of 7 exercises. Using my Gymboss Interval Timer , which I finally found (turns out Andrew didn’t have it after all :/ ) I set 21 cycles of 15 seconds recovery and 45 seconds effort. The workout is a mixture of body weight and Kettlebell exercises, and the usual mix of cardio (c), resistance (r), some strength (s), plyometric (p), stabilising (st) and core activating exercises (cae). Sorry if the key is all over the place these days, I sort of forget about it sometimes. I have also recorded my reps per exercise, which are also in brackets in the list below.
The exercises today are:
- Two Sumo Squat Jump into Evil Burpee (c,s,p,cae,r) (11,9,8)
- KB Renegade Row (s,r,cae,st) (16,14,14)
- Side Bridge Raise (right) (st,cae,r) (13,12,10)
- Side Bridge Raise (left) (st,cae,r) (12,11,9)
- KB Goblet Squat into Shoulder Press (s,r,cae)
- DiveBomber (s,cae,r) (14,12,9)
- Two-Handed KB Swing (c,r,cae) (24,21,21)
For the Kettlebell exercises I used my 16kg (yellow) and the 20kg (grey). I really felt like giving up today, so I hope my mood didn’t come across as too negative. I know that I will regain what I have lost as I get settled, but it’s frustrating when you are out of your “flow” 🙁
Please leave your feedback and comments as always as it is nice to stay connected to you all. Let me know what you think of my wacky orange wall LOL!!! Not my doing I promise. My Studio may need to be rearranged a little to accommodate it being a little smaller than my old one, the camera range can’t fit me in any closer, so I may need to turn it around the other way. Will try that for the next video and see which is better. So many changes!! Turns out the only variety in life I enjoy is in my workouts, and food 😉
Talk to you all soon.
