Was meant to be a deadlift day today but had a late night last night and didn’t really eat properly yesterday so wasn’t feeling it and just did light shoulders and arms to make sure I actually got to the gym. Consistency wins! |

It was a lower day today. My back still isn't 100% so did some smith-machine squats instead of barbell squats, RDLs, leg extensions, hip abduction, calf raises and hanging leg raises. Then I finished it off with some physio-assigned exercises  |

Cardio day for me. Started with a few games of pickleball, stopped off in gym for 20mins on rower and 20 on the bike (I love the Apple fitness+ workouts). Topped it off with a quick mile walk during lunch at work. Tomorrow will be legs and lat pulls |

Nothing today. The gym I normally go to is closed until Tuesday but might go to the local leisure centre on Monday.
I am dog sitting for a friend this week so have been on 2 walks a day which is much more than I usually do. Going to try and keep up at least 1 walk a sat when I get home, on top of normal gym sessions.

"I’ve just started rope flow. My rotator cuffs really need some attention."
I like the look of rope flow.
Big body weight session today followed by some intervals. Glad we get an hour extra in bed tonight... oh wait  |

It’s really helped with improving my shoulder and spine mobility. Plus it’s quite fun when you start adding more movements. |

I'll give it a go sometime. I did animal flow for a while and still do some of it for my warm-ups. |

I do some animal flow too. It’s a great warm up but sometimes I want something with less intensity and I found the resistance band exercises for the rotator cuff just wasn’t cutting it.

Bodyweight exercises.
& Going on a treadmill in the garage at a high incline, wearing 2 sets of ankle weights whilst running on it.
I also do mountain climbers with ankle weights for about 15 minutes.
Ive yet to go on a real mountain climb, whilst wearing ankle weights. I might give it a try.. |
