About 25km on the bike this morning to get the old legs moving. Pretty stiff from monday still.
And I say about 25km as strava farked out and only got last bit of the ride. Was an easy ride down through taka, around the lake and to the in-laws to prune back a hedge and put the garden bin out then a ride back home via the crater.

Woke early sat morning so went for a ride. Not the smartest idea so it seems as had a crash on first run when landed a bit off from a jump and front wheel washed out from under me. Fair few grazes on arms and back but will survive.
No time for gym this am as had a bit to do before golf this arvo but got rained out after 9 so did a pull session at gym in the end. First time doing deadlifts for ages. Felt weak

Weds - was gonna go for a run this am but hate the run so went to the gym and trained legs heavy and hard enough that there is no way I can run this week at all.
Good sesion - leg ext, hammie curls, squats,.... oh yeah lots of squats, then hacksquats, straight legged deads, heavy glute thrusts and seated calf raises. Good times.

In the gym early this am for an upper body all rounder. Really smashed the delts and out a heap of reps thru them. Everything else just a minor touch up. Good session.
Legs actually feel ok right now. Might hit em again tomorrow. Or run or ride
Clearly you didn’t hit them hard enough. That’s the only explanation.

Sat - woke early so shot out of the bike down to Devo for an easy 20km. Avoided the hills
Today did an easy jog down the end of beach and back and a swim. Then this arvo out on the mtb on some coromandel trails, much hills. Also hit the jump park for a bit of fun

MTB ride in the forest. Plenty of hill climbing
Weds - back in the gym - upper body blastEatings been shit in recent times as I'm just a pig who likes my food. It's a reward for doing the exercise though. Monday had a mean feed after my ride in coro with a fish burger, garlic chips and 3 each of deep fried oysters and scallops. Washed down with a couple of low carb lagers of course
Will tidy up the intake until xmas day, maybe

Only tan gains to report since last update. Currently I’d have to be one of the better tanned gingers around.
Exercise has been dominated by a ton of riding, surfing and swimming.
Weights work was ok last week where I was doing 100 bb bicep curls one day and 100 push-ups (on the barbell) the next and repeating.
As of yesterday changed it up to 5 rounds of curls, push-ups, overhead press and bb press ups (15 reps each). Enough (with this tan) to get a decent pump on and look like I’m in ok shape.

Gingas don’t tan, it’s just freckles joining up and creating the illusion.
Believe me I know.
