One day at a time...













Yesterdays Workout:

Ring Pull Ups 10
Push Ups 10
Squats or Lunges 10
Knee hold 30sec

As many rounds in 20 minutes:

First up was Tricia. She really had a strong session. 9 rounds in total - huge number. She loves the ring pulls for all those who hate them!!!

Then came Anne, a solid 7 rounds. Could have snuck another round in as we finished on about 18 minutes but instead Iwe opted to break her PB on the 500m sprint. And that we did: ffrom 2:36 to 2:33. Super Anne. Each session counts.

Liz and Frank turned up late as always. We got straight to work. A woping 10 rounds in 20 minutes for Frank and 8 rounds for Liz. Frank had a go at his PB last session for the 500m row, this week it was Liz's turn. From 2:34 to 2:33.9. She smashed her old time by 10 seconds. Now that is improvement. Liz also noted that since starting training the numbness that she used to get every night (she is a long time hairdresser who uses her hands and arms in an uncomfartble way) has dissapeared. Another important reason to exercise other than physical beauty.

Coral was back after being Missing In Action. We gave her the basics - 12 rounds of push ups, squats and sit ups: 10 reps each. She really got through them quickly, 20 minutes max. Good to have you back Coral.

Gulnaz popped in. She scored a 6 rounds, and while lower than the other girls, she used a
massive weight on the lunges 12.5kg. And held each knee hold for 30 seconds complete. And did full push ups unlike most of the other girls who use their knees. Great strength Gulnaz.

Super Bob was in. Smashed the circuit. 8 rounds in total. But had the most weight for the lunges, 22.5kg each hand. OUCH! Plus i pushed him to a 60 second knee hold last round and he did it no sweat.

Sarah also returned after a couple of weeks off. We got stuck straight into it and she scored 8 perfect rounds.

So, at the end of the day, Frank B scored a winning 10 rounds and Tricia, on 9 rounds for the ladies. A special mention for Bob and Gulnaz for using the heaviest weights and hardest technique.
