Diary

Woke up this morning an my legs were killing me felt like walking round with lead weights. Not sure if this was down to holding on for dear life while climbing ladders yesterday or the weights the day before.

Set out for my morning walk, although decidedly milder it was still very icy but made worse as the ice was thawing leaving an icy film of water on the pathways so was still as slippy as normal, 3 miles today was hard work because of this.

Headed off to meet Alex this afternoon another heavy session mainly weights, Alex has upped the weights on every exercise this week so what i thought was hard work last week had nothing on this week. Now would you believe how i have said about my legs being bad the first half an hour was squats followed by dead lifts followed by clean and jerks my legs are no more!!

Done some more work and then was winding down with some high leg stomach crunches, five sets of 12 on the third set i stopped at 10 thinking they were sets of 10 so Alex made me do the extra 2 to make 12 and after i had completed the 5 sets Alex decided i needed to do an extra set to make up for the one i only done 10, even though i told him i had done the extra 2, all he said was get it right and you wont have to do it again!!! WHAT????

 a very apt adage i like
success is not final  failure is not fatal  its the courage to continue that counts.
