Swimming this morning. Former coach filled in for current dude and put up a brutal set. But got through it ok. Coach said that I looked "fucking fit man" which has made my decade.

At least you got that right. People get upset when you mention the gay one.

Supposed to be chest and biceps today but chest was pretty crap since I was trying to train around the dodgy shoulder. Reckon I'll have to bite the bullet and rest it. Poo bum wee.
-
Being stupid I didn't rest it and worked around it. Actually feels ok so maybe dodged a bullet. Or probably not....
Back and swimming yesterday. Buggered.
Very good legs session this morning. Hopefully swimming coach doesn't go hard on kick board tonight. Christ I hate kick board. Absolute torture.
Have added a steak dinner to the diet and it seems to be doing the job. The issues with low blood sugar haven't been hovering. Also haven't really hit the sugary treats hard on cheat day and I think that has made a difference.

Got up early to do 30 min of intervals before swimming. Was then hoping for a fairly easy session in the pool but Kommandant Båstard von Coach had other ideas. Long warm up then an "acid bath". 20 X 25 max efforts on a minute. Båstard timed every one as well so nowhere to hide.
What a way to start the week!
-
I'm just waiting for the day he makes you do all of this with a towel over your head. Pretty much sounds like waterboarding to me!!

If I could only have one meal for the rest of my life it would be a good steak dinner. Please note the word "good" cos shit, chewy, fatty steak sucks arse. Lamentably this is what I got when out for dinner a couple of weeks back, I hate it when you pay $25 for something lacklustre.

Yeah I'm very picky about steak. Had some really shit ones when I was living in Norway and went off it for a while. But a good one is hard to beat.

Chest and biceps this morning. Again, should have been careful with shoulder but wasn't. Hopefully I'll get away with it 🙏.
-
Shoulder actually ok today so hit the back and tris. Yeah not bad. Feeling tired though so swimming tonight will be a struggle.
Had some no sugar jelly. That's good shit.

Funnily enough I became aware of this on this very forum some years back. Bartman recommended it as a treat.

When your treat to yourself is sugar free jelly, you're just doing life wrong

Son has swimming at crack of dawn so went to place nearby with a gym and pool and doubled up. Went pretty well. Shoulder 😠 for some movements but perfectly ok for the 2km in the pool. Next week I'm just going to stay away from the gym and see how that goes.
A South African woman in the lane beside me got all matey and had alot of questions. Is it a South African thing to say "literally" every sentence? Said it more than those arsehole Millennials.

The ones I know call me ‘China’, talk about biltong and say McCaw cheated his entire career but Schalk 🍔 didn’t

Swimming this morning. Woken up early by cat. Ginger cnut. He comes in every morning at about 4 and seems to have a fervent need to announce his presence. Meeows like a bitch and then runs round like a lunatic. Stupid arsehole has a catflap but the way he goes through it you'd think he was entering a farking time portal for the first time. Did I mention he's a ginger as well. Båstard.
Anyway I usually do swim then run but Obergruppenführer Coach was there and had other ideas. We a did 1.5 km warm-up then 10x100 with 10 pushups and 10 squats in between). Half the 100s had a 25 max effort to start and the other half had 50 max efforts. So you did the pushups and squats then jumped straight in the pool for the max efforts. Yep. Totally fooked.
