my fitness journey on instagram
Shattered! 😔 .
Having climbed last night, my muscles just didn't have it in them tonight, but I still made the effort to get to the gym. I may not have been able to push myself as far as I'd hoped, but I did the work I needed to. As #nike would say, #justdoit ☺ . . .
Wednesday 23rd May Workout
.
#HIIT on the bike:
🚲
14 rounds, 45 seconds high, 60 seconds moderate intensity at 4 - total distance 13,816m with an average split of 1:48.5 - felt shattered and my legs had no more to give! .
💪 Cheeky little resistance session:
- dumbell overhead press 7kg x 10 reps x 3 sets, 8kg x 10 reps
- lateral shoulder raise 4kg x 10 reps x 3 sets, 5kg x 10 reps - front shoulder raise 4kg x 10 reps x 3 sets, 5kg x 10 reps .
- plank on a bosu ball 75 seconds x 6 reps

It's hard trying not to smile like a nutter when you see progress in the mirror in front of you! 😊
It also helps that I smashed my HIIT session time today, and broke my average split to under 1.46.0 for the first time in a full 14 round session. And... that was despite feeling shattered, so just goes to show don't stop pushing yourself as you may surprise yourself when you least expect it. . .

Compound exercises, and combining moves are a good way of speeding up your workout, and really giving your muscles a good workout.
Bicep curl, combined with overhead press for a two-in-one workout. This was my last set, so excuse the tired form, but I try to make sure I lower my weights at a slower rate than at which I push or press. This is known as negatives, and therefore you push the muscles to work harder in the eccentric phase as they are working against gravity. .

Friday = Thigh-day! ☺
... well, legs day...
.
I especially like to workout on Friday evening before heading to meet friends, as it means I feel a little less naughty when I order my ice cream sundae at the cinema!
.
After finishing my sets of leg press, I like to use the leg press machine to exercise my calves. Certainly felt the burn tonight after my HIIT session 😮

Today's adventures included an early morning ride to Essex to get myself a retro leather bike jacket, followed by an hour with this fella, Domino!
Was quite an odd sensation transferring from two wheels to four feet, and then back to two wheels again! 🤣
