Starting to introduce plyometric exercises once a week from Ali the physio
Starting with one exercise then adding one more each week for 4 weeks
High step/knee drive - 3 x 40 secs on 40 secs off

Physio exercises - Back on it!
Single leg bridge - 10 each leg x 3 (20kg weight)

Goblet squat - 10 x 3 (12kg weight)
Something that doesn't have a name that I know of but I am calling "twisted band leg side and back" - 10 each leg with orange band x 3
Standing lunges - 10 x 3 on each leg, 8kg
Hamstring Curls - 3 x 8 each leg with double band (2 heaviest bands - black and orange)

YWA - Yoga for Cyclists
Lovely and stretchy
Just what was needed this morning
Namaste x

Had planned to run as well as Zwift today but a combination of work and, more importantly, my hamstrings meant that running was a no go.
Really fed up and miserable about the hamstring pain but at least I managed a super gentle spin on the bike AND a new season of RHOBH has just appeared on Netflix.
So,
Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, Season 9, Episode 1

Calf session
Work laptop started updating so I thought I would use the time wisely so made a cuppa and did my calf exercises.
Had I known it was going to take 25 minutes I would have gone for a run or something

YWA - Gentle Morning Yoga
And very gentle it was, too, which is good because my body feels sore and tired this morning
Namaste x

Physio exercises - After what seemed to be the knock on effect of adding weight and resistance and doing hamstring curls in the same session as lunges (ie extreme hamstring pain) I took a gentler approach this evening

Single leg bridge - 10 each leg x 3 (12kg weight dropped back down from 20kg for a while)

Goblet squat - 10 x 3 (12kg weight)
Something that doesn't have a name that I know of but I am calling "twisted band leg side and back" - 10 each leg with green band x 3
Hamstring Curls - 3 x 8 each leg with orange band

First 20 mins of this was this week's Zwift Workout of the Week - Twenty Torch (which was apparently going to torch some calories) and I kept the session going once I'd finished that and went straight into RHOBH, Season 9, Episode 2
Really enjoyed the 20 mins workout

Great for getting the HR up
Will definitely do this kind of thing again (ie short workout followed by an easier ride)

Duvet entanglement meant I only had a short time available for yoga
Nobody's fault but my own.

Namaste and all that x

Magical mystery tour running and so much fun
Chose to walk through fields of cows and sheep with lambs because a) I didn’t want to alarm them and b) I wanted to take pictures, say hello to all of them and get my fill of the lamb-y cuteness.
Also saw a field full of chickens and goats with loads of kids

Coffee at Cadence for the first time in a while
This was such a good run.

I had no planned route or mileage

Aim was just to be outside moving and having fun
Mission accomplished

Lots of twisty tiny trails in the woods

I was expecting to feel lumpen and sore but my body actually felt the best it has in quite some time.
Happy 😊

Had a few minutes and could either log on to work early or do today's 5 mins of calf work
I did the calf work

FWFG - Yoga Ritual - 1/7
15 mins yoga and 5 mins of meditation each day
Returning to this series as I have stopped sleeping so well and am back to worrying about work during the night and I really don't need to be doing that.
Going to try daily again, too. I find a daily habit easier to stick to for some reason.
Namaste x

Zwift workout of the week - Sevens (first 30 mins of the ride) then the end of a RHOBH
Probably shouldn't have done this today. Haven't been very well
But I wanted to be moving and I was "quite good" and didn't go for another episode of RH
Going to do not very much at all now, though, for the rest of the evening

I had a choice this morning. Do the yoga workshop that I had booked or head out for a run for the first time in a week. I chose to run.
I had a really quite dicky tummy but thought it was worth the risk and got the train to Glynde to run home from there. Luckily there are public loos not far from Glynde station
Just ran where my feet took me and it was lovely.
Saw a sheep that was on the brink of lambing. Hung around at a discreet distance for a while but I think I was making her nervous and I didn't want her holding it in so left her to it.
Then went through a little field of sheep just before Cadence. One sheep came running up and demanded head scritches and then a lamb came over and butted my leg until I stroked it and then it licked my leg. I can die happy
Also saw my most amazing fox - deep, dark red, fluffy tail with a shock of white fur at the end.
As I ran through East Dean my tummy really started to feel dodgy and so, when I saw the bus coming, I decided to jump on it instead of risking the last 3 miles to home.
Let's just say it was the right move

Blissful day at work because pretty much everybody I work with in Europe and India were off because it is the 1st May.
Had no calls, got loads of actual work done and finished on time.
Alison the Physio said it was Ok to cross train with the back pain so I did

Needles. Lots and lots of needles
This was a happy coincidence that I had this appointment scheduled as it meant that Alison could not only check out and needle my hamstring but also my lower back as it was worse today than yesterday when I woke up this morning *sigh*
Happy with the effect of the needles, though, and also with the conversation I had with Alison about my back. Made me worry less.
I doubt I will go to Fee's class this evening. Need to be sensible. Will do something at home instead and have a hot bath.

Muddy in amongst the trees
Saw lambs and bunnies and noisy rooks and not many people

And a wren (a family sign of sad or bad news which is what I’d just had so interesting to watch her watching me from the hedge)

I'm loving this week off work
A warm one today!
No plan at all for this run. Wasn't even sure where I was going to start from. Bought a ticket to Lewes but decided to get off at Glynde and head up to the Downs from there.
Turned right at Blackcap down a bridleway that I was sure I must have run in the past but it was not at all familiar and was absolutely lovely. Peaceful and green and just gorgeous.
Paused at Cadence for an ice cream and bumped into Nicole so had a lovely chat about the yoga retreat in 3 weeks.
Had no distance in mind and no finish point. Aim was just to stop when I felt like it and I felt like it outside the Deli in East Dean where I bought a sandwich, had a chat with my former next door neighbour, then got the bus home.
Happy

YWA - Rose Yoga
Bit off kilter today worrying about Mum but sure everything will be fine
Really interesting to note that my body (and mind) this week feels the best it has in a long time and the main difference is that I'm not spending my days sat at my desk.
Oh well
Namaste x
