I haven't blogged since last Tuesday after my swim session, so here's my week in review.

Wednesday 29/4
Arm workout at the gym...

Kickbacks 2 x 20 @ 20 lb
Machine Dips 2 x 20 @ 78 kg
D/B Curls 2 x 20 @ 40 lb
Incline Curls 2 x 20 @ 40 lb
Hammer Curls 2 x 20 @ 20 lb
Close Grip Bench 2 x 20 @ 80 lb

I quite enjoyed this workout and was pumped afterwards.

Thursday 30/4

Happy Birthday Vince Lee David! (my step son - 9 today)
We had a birthday tea for Vince Lee, Nan & Pop came over from Huntly and it was cool. Party food!!! YAY!!!
I was absolutely knackered after work so I didn't do any training of any description. In fact had a pretty lazy 3 days training wise Thurs, Fri and Sat.

Sunday 3/5

Swim session with Kathy.

Did 2300 metres today, in what was a fairly hard but excellent session.
I'm really enjoying swimming with the squad and getting a push along with the training.

Here's what we did.

Warm up:
200 free
2 sets of 100 free with 50 kick

Drills:
100 one arm swim
100 catch up drill

Main Set:
6 sets of 100 mtrs - 75 steady, 25 hard. 20 sec rest / 100 mtrs
8 sets of 50 mtrs - kicking. 10 sec rest / 50 mtrs
500 mtrs pull ( pull buoy & paddles )

Warm Down:
100 free

Felt bloody good after that one.

Received a bit of bad news today. Brother Maurice broke a bone in his hand whilst out on a training run. He'll be alright though. He's a tough lad. Hope it gets better quickly brother.

Monday May the 4th... Star Wars day.. You figure it out...

Gym session tonight. chest & back as per last Monday.
Felt a little flat today to be honest, but got through the workout without any hasslehoffs.

Weight as at 6:15 am 136.50kg pretty happy about that.

Until next time... GOODNIGHT
