Core - ouch!

Being as I hadn't done any exercise today, just did cyclocore - bonus abs/core...I thought my core strength was improving - didn't feel like it doing this set! Not one I usually do - obviously they must be getting too easy - didn't complete any of the sets on this - except normal ab curls and a fairly good 1min 15 body pike twice..(can't be bothered to de-jargon all that - needs to be seen to explain!)

Tues 13th Jan 09
Cyclocore - Bonus abs/core workout (15 mins) - hard - especially reverse ab curls (or something..)(the 2nd one of workout)(couldn't do more than 3 in row of those - did 4 sets of 3)
(the lateral exercise on this was good - didn't go up on wrists as in some of the other workouts, which really hurts my wrists - but the elbows.
Cyclocore - warm down stretch - 15 mins


Mon 12th Jan 09
Swim - tri pool sesh (8-9pm) - 200 warm-up alternating 25 FS 25m back stroke
- 3 x 100m - breathing 25 each: every 3, 5, 7 strokes. (managed
every 7 for 3 lots - about 3/4 of length - not too bad!)
- 3 x 100 on 3 mins (pleased as each 100m was around 2mins
consistently) and I was leading off (hate doing, but good for me!) -
so harder work - as don't want to get caught and don't have drag)
- 2 x 150m on 4 mins (did each 150 in 3m 10ish) (leading again)
- 3 x 100m - different folk leading off each 100m - much pleasanter!)
- we were pushing on quite hard)
- 100m warm down
Total - 1500m - felt like worked hard, and felt strong.
