Besides, isn't most manhandling about leverage?
Probably![&o] I need to learn some of that stuff!
Update:
My bike tyres can't handle the roads around here,
third puncture in as many months, all from little
rocks, I've been trying to work the legs and the
cardio by playing football here and there, according
to American Dad, "like kangaroos and rapists, a
wrestlers power comes from their legs."
So legs have been on the agenda for a while, not
sure if they are really progressing too much, I
need to get new bike tyres asap!
I have been very busy with a lot of stuff lately,
mostly work related, but also academic so my
morning workouts have taken a hit...
I really am at my limit with all thats on my plate
right now, the work I've been up to latley is
extremely physical so if I had tried to keep it up
this week, I don't think I would have been able to
make it through the day, so yea very tired atm, I
don't feel too bad about it, definitely will be
burying myself in a heap of workout hours
beginning next week, after next week I don't know
what my schedule will look like so better to cram it
in before then.
Summary, so I've been working on a few things
since the start of the year, The improvements
have been good over a wide range of things, I have
had some injuries that were exercise related, one
was pretty bad, I couldn't even drive my car... but
I was able to recover quick and those stumbles were
more of the "shaking a few kinks out" type, as my
body kinda has adapted to the new loads and
stresses now, I still want more out of myself so this
point I'm at currently is only really a place to take
stock and have a reflect, I'm hungry for more
endurance, more strength, better cardio, faster
acceleration etc so I will keep pushing further, if my
gains and improvement continue as they have I will
be over the moon!
Actually, I'll mention about injuries, I've had a mild
but persistent case of tennis elbow for years, it is
now almost non-existent, that is four months of
careful, structured exercise and a healthy diet and
I have basicly got a brand new elbow! Thats was
pretty unexpected! I kinda like using that arm as a
pillow... I don't think it likes it... [&o]
So I set out not really having a specific goal in
mind, just to improve generally, and on almost all
counts I'm quite happy with myself so far, I would
pat myself on the back if I could still reach it...[:D]
Hope this gives a bit of encouragement to you guys,
It has for me!
