Day 36

Woo hoo - the days are counting over pretty quickly (H-Hmmm, not that I want them to of course..).  Went down to Patrick's studio and Saya-san kindly ran the show with our mean but quick work out. Incredibly sore all over but learnt two clever things today:

For skipping: low jumps make for a quicker set. For the plank, moving back (leaning back) on your heels provides for a better focus and balance (ie, it's heaps easier and more effective).

Had my dinner shake which tastes great although losing my banana equivalent (mango in my case) means it is a very light dinner.  I will wait for an hour plus some before my vegetable snack of steamed carrots. I try to go through the colour wheel of veges to ensure I am mixing it up. Otherwise I'd be doing potatoes all the time.

Came home, went into the jacuzzi in our gym here and stretched actually in the jacuzzi which was great for my legs. Pistols killed me - especially right one. Funny my left knee was giving me trouble initially - now it's the right. I am guessing my left has built up strength since.  I should note - just as there are no pull-up bars at Patrick's studio we did tomorrow's workout today: flip them around.

We all did our skips very quickly - I guess with time there is improvement. Onwards and updards. PCP and the weekend is great. Now to a DVD on the sofa with an espresso. Giddyup.
