Quick Update!

Hi there, just wanted to give you all a quick update in terms of training. I did the last workout A of the current cycle of Fat Loss III sessions and will be completing the final workout B tomorrow. I've been hitting the cycling hard and have perhaps over done it slightly since I've been experiencing a few problems with my right knee.

That aside I have managed to do a 40mile (slightly over) ride on the bike on Saturday with the brother-in-law and the knee felt relatively okish. as I had rested it on Friday. I did an additional 14mile on Sunday as the weather was nice and forgot the suncream so have burnt my shoulders and ended up with an invisible vest look. Not good. This is one of the reasons why I didn't produce a detailed update this past week. Hopefully the lines will have faded a little over the coming week before I do a proper update again.

I hopefully intend to do some cycling again this weekend as the charity ride is only a couple more weeks away 13th June so I need to make sure that I'm ready. I've been gaining sponsorship at work today and hope to get as much as I can for the good causes allocated to the ride fund. I am contemplating riding with a group on Sunday that will be doing 80 to 85miles ride. If the weather and knee holds up then it should be a very good test in terms of distance (although the terrain is generally flat - where as the charity ride has a few hills thrown in). We'll see how it goes. At worst I'll pop out on my bike myself at somepoint over the weekend just to keep things ticking over.

Like I said earlier I'll be doing the last session of the Fat Loss III sessions tomorrow so will have to consider my next step. The most probable is to move across to Strength I and then plan further a head once these have begun. Ideally I'll want to revert back to some Fat Loss sessions before I go on vacation in August. The Fat Loss III sessions have gone well and I am pleased with the progress that I've made from session to session (especially lately). The last few sessions I've managed to up the weight in a few of the exercises and also reduce the overall time it took to complete the entire workout. Let's hope I can continue that trend into the final session tomorrow. I'll let you know how it goes.

Cheers, BustaGut!
