Sept 7 to 14

Can YOU tell the difference? Maybe it's Maybelline!

There were some positives -mostly work related - to this week, and some real slap in the forehead, thumb in the eye kind of things going on this week. I did it to myself, but it happened. <<le sigh>>

At least the morning sessions continued - I added some light cardio to the last fifteen minutes this week:

8-10 minutes hip and chest mobility - WGS, push ups, 90/90 stretch, downward dog to cobra, baby pose, basic hip and back and shoulder stretching

8-10 minutes abs, push ups, swimming kicks, lying knee rotations, dead bugs, hydrant stretches, clam shell stretches, BJJ leg pummelling, supine ground db flies

10-15 minutes, starting with 2-3 minutes on the air bike or kettle bell swings, then lateral DB raises, "cobra" db curls, overhead presses, hip opening stuff with a PVC pipe that I will now call "pole stretching". I'm doing this last part as AMRAP. I find this part rather helpful and sweaty.

After this, of course I get in the house and make coffee, breakfasts and lunches. The lunches are as always apples, carrots and hummus, prunes, some cheese. 

Breakfasts are tending towards ham and eggs. I'm trying to get protein in and make sure the caffeine levels are rising before driving to work. 

It is the evenings that are the issue - this week I was trying to get everyone out for a swim, but decided to be an idiot. When I am an idiot, everything stops until I can apologize and then this week, not even then. I did hear back about the x-ray to the knee and it wasn't a happy message. The ultra sounds might be just worse, but we will find out this week.
