Day 81 - Lackluster

Both Max and I are still a bit unwell. Nothing fatal, just a sore throat, swollen glands and in Max's case the 38.5ºC fever continues. I sound really sexy with my husky voice though. Max sounds a little hoarse too so I can only assume he has a sore throat as well.

Skipping was very lackluster today. Got through them but really poorly. Only managed around 2100 skips rather than the 2300 or so I have been doing over the last few days. I had to take a big break between sets 2 & 3 to attend to Max so not ideal in terms of the cardio effects. But they are done.

Workout started off pretty poorly as well. My knee is still making squats and creeps painful but pushed through the pain to finish them off.  Lots and lots of failure in davincis. I don't need to make them harder despite today's pro tip. For the shoulder press, I only managed about 10 in the final set. Shoulder flys lots of burn and failure too.

I finished strong on the abs though.

Planning on taking a long walk with Max in the sling for extra cardio but won't push it too hard for both our sakes.

  1. If you are feeling under the weather and still managing 2100 skips then you are doing very well. Sorry to hear that you are both not well. The cooler weather does have some positives, it was lovely out this afternoon. Hope that you can shake the sore throat off and that tomorrow is a better day.
