After the lovely cooler weather last week, the sticky Tokyo summer is back with a vengeance. So far am hiding in doors in the aircon but I can feel myself get cabin fever.
Am kinda grumpy too. Not sure why. The housework seems never ending and I just want some time on my own where I don't have to talk to anybody.
But skipping and workout done for the day. The elevated pushups looked worse than they were - so perhaps I am doing them wrong. I was leaning my shins on the footstool rather than being perched up on my toes. I will ask the question for the weekly video.
Again with the 90 second planks - first one not too bad. The next two quite hard and the last one not too bad again. That is just weird. Makes me think that it is all mental rather than physical.
I think I need to get outside for a bit.
Oh no, sorry to hear that the heat has come back with a vengeance. Bali strangely cool. Kids think the pool is too cold. Weird. If you are feeling grumpy that is possibly something that comes with the heat, the cabin fever and the idea that the housework will never stop as you said. MIrroring your advice to me, just take it as it comes. I think I am back on track with the exercises (don't want to do them), but am finding the eating at the right times a challenge. Wine has also crept back in. I am looking forward to going home to Tokyo. On PCP may not be a bad thing that you only have 2 days in Okinawa. I know that this is reality, but this past week has been harder than I expected in being hard-assed about my eating. Have stopped weighing which I will need to do.
ReplyDeleteIn the meantime, are there any pools you can loll about in as a respite from the heat? Setagaya Park has a nice one for kids. Also Meguro pool run by the ward which is near the Yamate-dori/Meguro-dori crossing.
The planks killed me today. I decided to do 8 min Abs and some V-sits because I just couldn't manage them. Hope you had a happy happy birthday!
