What an absolutely amazing day I have had today. I was motivated by Charlie’s post about his mum doing strength and conditioning… this is something that I have avoided as I know my legs are so weak… It’s a silly reason why not to do something when it is an area that I definitely need to work upon. So thanks Charlie and his mum for inspiring me to get to it….<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Base Superset here I come!! The Warm-Up left me tired… Jumping Jacks; Walkouts; Running On The Spot…. My heart is starting to pound! Hip Openers… This is something that I need to do more often especially on days that I work as I spend the majority of my time sitting down! Heal Flicks…. I always find these hard work as I tend to go quite quickly at the start.. then I get knackered and lose my rhythm. Downward Dog with a Cobra (not sure if it is called a Cobra… but It’s what I have decided to call this movement! Marching On The Spot. I am thinking if this is the Warm-Up… what is the main workout going to be like!! Leg Swings.. yes, I feel as though this is a great opportunity to catch my breath! Sprints…. breathe Louise Breathe… There is no need to hold your breath! Oh no…. Standing hip openers…. Pick a spot on the wall… come on you can do.. try and balance on one leg… brace your core… You have this… <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Time for the main session…. Squats and Calf Raises are the first superset. 3 sets of 30 seconds each… so far so good
Moving onto Good Morning and Narrow Squats. My thighs are probably going to start to ache or burn… Narrow Squats… nightmare… but hey we have to start somewhere.
Bear Plank and Reverse Lunges….. Lunges and Reverse Lunges are definitely an area that I need to work upon… I just do not seem to have the strength or stability for this…<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"S&C\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Time for a quick shower and then I am heading into the West End to meet friends for lunch, a walk around London, dinner and Wicked The Musical.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What a fabulous day, I have had; we walked and talked, laughed and chatted some more. It was so nice to get in steps without running and spending time on my feet without even thinking about it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
