Wednesday - Saturday Update...

As I told in my previous post, I have been struggling with man flu.

Unfortunately, the symptoms were getting worse.  By Friday afternoon, I'd spent the best part of 24hrs shivering.  The cold/flu moved down from head to chest and within 24hrs had gone back to the head again.  Blocked sinuses, headache, the lot.  Severe lack of energy.  I seemed to have hit rock bottom.

As of Saturday evening, I've recovered a little.  Dont get me wrong, I still feel like shite but I've got some energy back.

From an fitness point of view it hasnt been great but because I havent been able to exercise because of having Izzy, its not been a total disaster.  However, from a parenting point of view, it has been a disaster.  I've been a right grumpy sod the last three days with Izzy and we havent quite been able to do what we were planning to do.

However, I have managed to fit in three sessions as such...

2 chest/abs circuits at home, consisting of:

10 x (20 SB sit ups + 20 SB sit twists + 10 chest press* + 10 chest fly*)  * 2 x 9kg dumbbells.

I also did manage a 1.5 mile walk with Izzy on Friday morning over Oxleas Woods through the mud and puddles.
