What's Wrong With This Picture?

I can't quite put my finger on it, bit something's amiss?

Yesterdays Workout

I planned to get to my gym early yesterday, get a workout in shower and then relax in the sauna for only about the 5th time in the 4 years I've worked there.

I got there and there and ended up missing my workout because I had to sell a gym membership instead. Oh well such is life.

I waited til I got home and did 8 minutes of intense exercise and made up for the missed workout.

The Workout

Tabata style 20 seconds of work followed by 10 seconds rest x 8

A1. Bodyweight squats
A2. Press ups

Rested 1 minute grabbed my rucksack, it was full so fairly heavy, and did swings with it

20 seconds on followed by 10 seconds rest x 8.

Believe it or not it was quite intense.

So a good workout and made up for the missed one at the gym

Todays Workout

I seem to be spending less time in the gym working out and more time exercising at home.
I use mostly bodyweight and dumbbell exercises and the only exercises that I do in the gym but can't do at home (yet) are inverted rows and chins ups.

The Workout

Prisoner squats
Mountain climbers

Scapula wall slides
Front plank

Prisoner lunge
Press up

I found this quite challenging, could possiblybe, just maybe due to the fact that my 3 year old son decided it was time to get up at 4 am this morning! I was due to be up at 5.30 so lost an hour and half sleep : (

I'll have an early night tonight : )

An Apology

It's been almost 3 weeks since I last posted, WAY TOO LONG in my book!

In the first week of January I hit a massive slump, I felt down and really demotivated almost depressed. Now I'm not writing this looking for sympathy, it actually turned out to be a positive, it gave me a real chance to do some long hard thinking.

On certain projects I'd been getting too carried away, projects that ultimately wouldn't earn me any more money and would end up wasting a whole bunch of my precious time.

I had too many blogs and was trying to juggle them and ended up not posting on any.
My training wasn't 100% geared towards my goals.
I was also being distracted too much.

Last week I had some moments of clarity and inspiration.
So from now on I will be posting daily with great info that will really help in your fatloss efforts.
