Forced Lay Off!

My back and knees have been playing up a bit. The back is the tweak I did with the deadlifts session in Strength I and the knees are from overdoing it with the cycling (I think). I finished the last Strength I workout on Monday but haven't been back to the gym until today (well I'm going after I've written this) as I have been giving the back a bit of a rest. I've been cycling to and from work during that time but I've been taking it easy on the way back instead of really pushing myself and my knees.

The plan at the gym today and for the next few sessions (over the remaining two weeks) before I go on vacation (where I will have a rest from the formal training) is to familiarise my self with the Strength II sessions and ensure the calculated weights are correct so that when I return from vacation I know exactly what I'm doing and with what weight.

I quickly got weighed this morning and from the reduced activity my weight has risen again to 14st 5lb (up 4lb) so we'll have to see what this eventually levels at for weigh in at the weekend. Right that's all I have time for at the moment so I must get going to the gym. I'll let you know how it goes.

Cheers, BustaGut!
