Just a quick run down the lanes today. Nothing special, just a 4 mile run, actually it’s a bit less than 4 miles, probably 3.6 or 3.7 miles. Total time was 34 minutes, though I did have a walk after about 3 miles as I was breathless. I probably walked for about two minutes, so [...]
Tuesday - back, biceps and run
Back
I start off with some lat pulldowns on the gym’s lat machine. I do two heavy drop sets, with three sets in each drop set.
100kg x 6 reps, 90kg x 5reps, 80kg x 4 reps
100kg x 4 reps, 90kg x 3 reps, 80kg x 3 reps
After that, I went onto the [...]
Sunday - run
I look forward to my Sunday morning run, and today was no exception. I’d been feeling a bit down in the dumps over the previous day, even though I’d had a good HIIT session, I still couldn’t help feeling a bit gloomy. I guess it’s just uncertainty about the future and wanting to [...]

Tuesday - run and abs
Run
I’ve been reading about doing more intense cardio work rather than doing longer runs, so decided to put that into practice today by doing a very intense interval training session. I’m pleased to report it went well, though I almost puked at the end!
First 10 minutes at 10kmh
45 seconds at 15 [...]
Saturday - cardio and abs
Run
Just a quick 25 minutes on the treadmill today, bit of interval training but wasn’t breathing very well. I seem to have developed some severe synus problem which inhibits my breathing through my nose, as such I’m under-performing when doing cardio work as I’m not able to get enough oxygen into [...]
Sunday is a long(ish) run day. I’m not training for a half marathon or anything like that so I’m not out trying to get a specified number of miles done or anything. I treat my sunday run as a nice end to the week, go for a longer run than I would do in the [...]
