Strength and Conditioning – upping my game

Me lifting weight on trap bar

So, having built the garden gym I’ve finally started using it, but never really been able to apply the necessary rigour or find the time to fully plan out what I should be doing. So time to turn to the professionals….. I’ve started working with Molly, or “Coach Wheeler” as the TrainHeroic app calls her – has a certain Hollywood ring, perhaps that’s an omen that I can pull some sort of movie-like miracle out of the bag 😉

This seems to be going really well, just a few sessions in but feeling better for it already. Definitely get a better range of exercises and testing out bits of the body that have clearly been neglected.

I’ve created a quick video summarising session 1.

Lockdown Conditioning Commences

Starting with good intentions Marcus and I set out our mats for a quick workout. Starting with a range of press up variations – 20 of each. These really kill me, I’m fine with the standard press ups, but the variants really kill me. I should probably put some of these up as resources here. I no there is a wealth of stuff online already, but we have adapted for ourselves.

Finish with a bunch of abs exercises, 50 of each. We’ve decided to focus on these two areas a bit until we get more comfortable with them and then start to mix it up.
