Regular training week.

The London trip has made my weight go up and down a lot this week. Great to be back with training again.

I have decided that working over time is not stopping me from exercising even if I am beat after extra hours, being at work earlier than normal. It will be soon over which is going to be great, want to have my normal life back again.

Gym early this week.

Treadmill was free so I ran 3K as warmup, stretched, felt a pain in my right knee in the beginning but it disappeared. Fan on.

Then it was time for biceps, triceps, legs, hips strengthening and stabilizing exercises. Noticed for the first time that when I was doing leg kick backwards and were getting down on my right knee I did not have any pain 🙂

Hip tabata and my mobile died during the tabata, forgot to charge it enough at work so had to count instead of going to 20 seconds on each exercises. Then I tried a new balance exercise using a Bosu ball balance trainer balancing for 90 s, doing the yoga position the tree and some other balance exercises, calf exercise and core.

The next day I felt that the ball balance trainer got my muscles sore. Will keep using it, have read that it will strengthen my inner core muscles which runners need.

Gym

Warm up was rowing 1500 m, faster then last week.

Then it was back, shoulders, legs, hips strengthening and stabilizing exercises and core, balance board, calf exercises

Yoga

PowerYoga 2

Got to the class, everyone was sitting on the yoga mat but no instructor. Have started to like this yoga instructor that have this class on Fridays. All of a sudden a girl moves fast forward and tells us that it will be a Yoga class, she find out very sudden after her YinYoga class that she would be the instructor for this Yoga class, she informed us that she had not done this in a while. Ok this would be interesting. It was a bit different Yoga class but focusing a lot on legs and back. Good for me as a runner. To have to step in with such a short notice she did a good job.
