I'd planned Round 3, Day 18 for Sunday or Monday but could still feel Friday's Day 17 in my upper body on Sunday and then Monday ran away with me.

I'm still pleased with the efficacy of the Iron Programme. Even though I am now only doing at most two sessions a week I seem to be able to up my weights this time round.

I found chest press using 2 x 8kg DBs quite hard - but doable. I haven't used anything heavier than 2 x6k for the past few years - certainly not since I turned 70 two years ago. So I was pleased with that and not too worried about not lifting for a few days.

It would be interesting to go in a gym and use the Olympic bar and weights again. Bar and weights mainly easier than DBs. With my other tippy toes flounce around activities seems unlikely I will get to Lee Valley in the immediate future though.

Day 4 completed. Abs have recovered but legs are in bits especially the inside of leg just above knee. No idea what muscle that is. 😬

About This Thread

Maintained by Shark the Herald Angel
Caroline Girvan - tiny but tough, sweet but strong.

Here's a thread rather in the manner of the Shred craze that swept Fetchland some years ago, or perhaps more recently (and less bossily) Adriene's 30 Days of Yoga each year. I found Caroline Girvan via geordiegirl (ta, GG!) and am well impressed with her workouts. I'm currently on Day 27 of her 30 day Iron Series and have STUCK TO IT. Wonders will never cease, I was beginning to despair of the likelihood of me getting any sort...
