Super Saturday Session (aka SSS) today. So no sleep in but instead I was up early to get ready for swim and gym. I was wondering why on earth I was doing this, as I was drinking my coffee. I’m injured so surely that’s my get out of jail card? Well, no. Lame excuse really, but was worth a try 😉
First up was my swim session: 200m warm up, then 500m with pull buoy, and finally 500m without. Total: 1.2km
Next: 4 x 25m pool walking.
Gym session: I had to modify today’s SSS because I can’t do any of the lower body exercises such as burpees, lunges, etc (there is a god!). So I did things my way!
5 min warm up on the bike
Then 3 circuits of the following:
20 bridges
20 push ups
5 min bike
20 one arm rows (10kg)
20 dips
20 barbell shoulder presses (10kg)
20 barbell bicep curls (10kg)
5 min treadmill walk
Total: 63 min
The grumbling gremlins had started before I even left home this morning so the grumbles from my my stomach were almost deafening by the time I got home again 2 hours later! I was starving.
It’s been a wet, miserable and cold day – appropriate for the first day of winter. I’ve had to employ my secret weapon this afternoon to stop any unnecessary snacking. It doesn’t help that Mr CJ had bought a packet of chocolate coated marshmallows, waves them under my nose and then proceeds to eat them in front of me, one by one.
One day at a time 
Awesome SSS! Also that’s awesome that you changed the exercises up instead of just not doing the ones that you can’t do at the moment!
Thanks Emily. I’m pretty impressed with myself for not giving up and saying the heck with it, why bother. That’s how I usually treat my injuries and down time! So the 12WBT is keeping me on track.

Someone needs to slap that evil husband of yours! 😉
I agree. I tried that, it didn’t make the slightest difference! 🙂
