Week 2…DONE!
We were told to “drink more water”
and I am trying to do exactly that.
I poured and took the picture at the same time.
As a “gift” to myself, I bought a new running watch.
There was nothing wrong with my old one,
aside from the fact that the built in technology was dated.
Also, it did not have a heart rate monitor,
or work if I used a treadmill.
I took my watch for its first run on Sunday,
and once I was used to which button to push,
I was able to enjoy the run.
I also discovered how quickly my heart rate drops
back to “normal” once I completed my run.
75% of this run was done at a heart rate of 150 bpm or higher.

Push-ups

One handed push-ups.
It has been a LOOONG while since I did these.
Back in the day, when I was young and foolish,
a group of us, including our instructor, would finish off
our sessions with at least 10-15 of these…

Morning squats

And my evening squats were done in more “Formal” wear.
Many thanks to my wife for lending me the dresses,
and when I mentioned how comfortable they felt,
she offered to go dress shopping with me.
I now understand why the Scots wear kilts.

She says that I have “killer moves”…
I am not so sure, but I do try.

My push-ups…
The last 5 almost killed me.
A few months ago, I went for a Discovery fitness test and managed 21.
I set myself a goal of getting to 30 by December when I undergo another test.
Looks like I might be able to do a couple more by then…
As Dr.Greg said at the dinner;
“I am not broken”…
