Today I went to the gym earlier than normal, I got there at about 5.30 pm, and suddenly remembered why I go there late.  It was busy

I wasn’t able to do the walking part of my cardio routine because all the treadmills were full. However I was able to do all the rest of it (tell a lie, between my second and third set I offered the pull-down lats machine to a woman who was waiting, so I never did the third set) and was pleased with it.

The cycling is still the hardest thing, I did level 10 today and it was really hard work. The big success was the rowing: 838 metres! I was amazed.

Pull-down lats – I put 17.50kg on today, and did not hurt my shoulder. I’ll do that weight this week and see if I can get to 20kg next week.

Core exercises on the ball – I’m ready to go to three sets now, even on the difficult hamstring curls, so I’ll do that on Wednesday.

Slowly slowly getting to where I’m supposed to be.
