I gave in
Well I gave in and went to the gym this afternoon. I had sort of planned to anyway but I did take it easy and just did a pretty boy mirror muscles workout consisting of incline bench, pec dec, tricep pushdowns, dumbell shoulder press and laterals, bicep curls and abs. Weights were kept about medium to med/heavy but sets and reps were short so it wasn’t too intense and nothing for the legs. There were some guys using the squat rack (yeah I was surprised that someone else actually uses it too!) and I thought about throwing in a couple of sets for good measure but I resisted.
At the moment the long range forecast for sunday is rain easing and a max of 15degrees C. Not exactly promising but here in Hobart the forecast can change in half an hour let alone 4 days.

Boy i wish you well. Can hardly wait for your blogs. Glad you resisted the squat session. Remember you can always go for a walk or a bike ride if need be..i know a bike waiting patiently perhaps not your color. Luck with the race my friend…

Thanks Guys, I already have a bike that sits patiently in the garage and hardly gets ridden.

Great job today. Good luck with the race. A little rain and 15 sounds like ideal conditions.
