    Finished the day with Stronglifts.

    SQ: 5x5 at 37.5kg. Legs were a bit fatigued tonight.
    BP: 5x5 at 30.5kg. Finally worked my way back up to 31kg after a deload when I failed to progress, hoping I'll get it next time.
    BR: 5x5 at 37kg. Eh, they were fine.

    Not much to report... Did my 2 mile run this morning. Am quite weary at work though, so probably just as well I'm not lifting tonight.

    Kettlebell Swing Challenge

    Goblet Squat- 3X7X 25
    Russian kettle bell swing-50 X 10X 25

    Today is the first day of my kettle bell swing challenge. I decided to do extra sets in case life got in the way during the month. That way I can bank some of the swings. I can really feel the extra! Now I am off to swim for 45 minutes. Hopefully that will relax and stretch out my muscles.

    Swimming-40 minutes freestyle

    Finally my sister-in-law and friend are able to swim again. Will try to get that in on Tuesdays and Thursdays. It really stretches out my muscles after weight training. I needed it especially after swinging the kettle bell 500 times today! The hot tub was exceptionally relaxing!
