Circuits & Pyramids

Monday night was circuit night at the Club, led by Brian, following a routine on sequential pieces of apparatus / stations of 40 seconds on 20 seconds off/change for half an hour, then 30 on 30 off for 20 minutes then 30 change 30 for 10 minutes then weights up for some of the same. Matt was doing really well on the pull ups, like the original ape man swinging on the bars, he is now up to 10 or so pull ups, I cannot do one yet or my excuse is that my personal trainer advises against them.

We used all the weights in the gym and there were four core exercise stations (swiss ball, medicine ball, large free weight (10kg) for twists etc. and lunges)

Tuesday morning early we were back on the ergos for a pyramid session of over 1 hour, sweating profusely by the end but at least now the heart rate drops faster than previously which a good sign unless it hits zero.........

Note to Lee remember to pack a full work outfit for post exercise, as temporarily he joined 42 Commando today!!!

Beating the streets tomorrow, back to running, snow permitting.

Matt has taken the boat off to a specialist repairers / boatyard to get the footplate brackets bonded back into the hull so hopefully we will be waterborne again by the weekend.

Our support crews are showing signs of life too as they wake from their winter hibernation......
