    Good day kids. Everything is closed due to this snowstorm. I am playing in the snow with the dogs to get in some exercise. Honeybadger great job. Has anyone seen 3furballs? Have a great day ahead.

    That's smart of you to plan ahead. I hope normalcy returns to you sooner. Where's that beautiful dog?

    Big 15kg PR tonight for back squat. I’m now at 85kg. About 185lbs. Super happy! I’m getting stronger!

    Also, dexa results last week showed a 9lb increase in muscle mass in the last six months. All those studies that say you’ll steadily lose muscle after age 55? Suck it. ;)

    Finally back to the gym this morning.

    Race weekend was fairly successful - I did what I set out to do, I had fun, and I set the foundation for the year that I can keep building off of. Had a great time, and my one race got chosen to get the "lunchtime podium celebration" this weekend, so got to go do the podium thing for the first time - which was actually a lot of fun :smiley:

    I got 2nd (battled for 1st but didn't pull it off) so on the right of the photos

    Congratulations, HoneyBadger! Great way to start the race season!

    Well done on the squat PR! That's awesome!

    Also great news on the dexa scan. Good to know that seasoned citizens can still build muscle!

    She’s right here “coaching”.
    She’s not gonna be too happy later. She doesn’t like people in her house...or any house...or outside. >:)

    No kettlebells yesterday; dealing with the anklebiters and sorting them out.
    Today - 45 mins on the turbo; GCN endurance tempo/threshold session. Glad I did it, was suffering with the endorphin withdrawal shakes - which I haven’t “enjoyed” in a long time.
    Now ——- work.

    Kettlebell circuit silliness with cardio in between, star jumps, skipping and such madness.

    Yesterday was supposed to be a fastish 3-mile run, but I put it off too long and ended up doing 30 minutes on the bike trainer in the basement.

    Today was supposed to be swimming, but I did the fastish 3 instead, plus 10 minutes of rowing, just for grins.

    Tomorrow, swimming, unless I continue this flip flopping of scheduled workouts. I guess we’ll see!

    Get your butt in gear, get your carcass into your swimsuit and get yourself in that pool!

    Lol! Yes, yes, I will. I’ve got my gear packed and have checked times at the pool. Thanks for the butt kicking. :)

    Turbo trainer: 45 mins, over/under FTP; Av HR 146, Max HR 175
    Basically over, under, over under..etc., etc until I was down and out - for the count! Jolly good fun it was, too!

    Swim accomplished. 30 minutes, 1200 meters.

    Also went to the dog park with the puppy. There was much chasing, fetching, sniffing of butts, and disgusting tennis balls. And on a cool, sunny, breezy day. So great!
