Hotpants on !
Warm clothing on!
Off I go to meet Ayo in the park !
Yes it's cold but at least it's sunny .
This will be a good start to the new year 2012!
10 sprints longer distance than normal
20 kettle bell(Alex) swings using alternate hands x3
15 waist twist using weight(Alex) x3
15 rear leg lunges each side whilst using opposite arm to lift Alex from floor waist level. X3
8 sprints with a squat jump at the end of each length .
20 press ups (still doing box press ups, not ready for half press ups yet ) x3
15 rear raises using Alex behind my head ( sitting position arm above/behind my head ) x3
15 double crunches holding Alex bringing the weight in as I crunch . X3
5 sprints at the end !!
Alex is my mate the 7kg weight
Sprints were done over double the distance that we normally use , still not extremely long but long enough for me as I don't normally jog/sprint
Ayo said my rear raises we're my worst exercise ! I totally agreed and said they hurt my arms to much and that I have weaker upper body strength .
Although we didn't train on the 1/1/12 I was still Ayo's first client of the year ;0) 2/1/12
Back to work tomorrow ,gym open tomorrow as its a normal working day . Probably not going but at least I have the option .

30 minute workout
Yes I was tired and felt very sick after but didn't throw up ;0)
I wore my hotpants which was a good job because it was absolutely freezing in the park .
I noticed my weight that I used is made by a company called Alex . So I just going to refer to my weight as ALEX . Alex has become a good friend he always weighs the same ,7kg! Always helpful .
Bearing in mind the night before I had been out with friends eating Italian at a local restaurant called 'locale' lovely food and great cocktails .
So I had a few cocktails .
That evening after training I was out again for a friends birthday ... More alcohol and bat snacks .
Tonight I am aching a bit but it's a nice ache as I can feel all the muscles I have used during training .
