Second career

 It's the start of a new era, and this blog has been sorely neglected. I might consider moving to substack but there's too many things for me to think about in the 2nd phase of life!

More to follow.

24 Jul 22 update

 Been baking hot in the UK, and work has been crazy busy.


But. Double under progress is still on. Doing 1 pretty easily. Next to do 2..

But golf is busy and I am lying down after two days walking the golf course with aching legs... particularly knees and ankles.

Onwards and upwards...

Cats cradle to windmill done plus backward EB swing 🥰

24 May 22

 Skipping at the gym, tried Kimmie's footwork but can't do the turn, more practice required.

Also can't do a double under, will try on the air mats tomorrow.

Phewie.

Monday 9th May 22 Jump!

 Came 4th in the Spring Meeting on count back. Happy my hcap has gone down but 0.5!

Thos evening I took advantage of my new work finish time. 

I did some southpaw dubs and even some double unders! I was pleasantly surprised that it was relatively easy to get the double unders except I can only do 1 arrgh!

19 Apr 22 got further

 At Pure Gym today was joined by a couple using weights.

Did some regular skipping, releases, leg wrap release, wrap part 1 and 2, then tried P13fit again.

Still tough but at least I can finally do the little pony hop on the right and the left. Got to midway. Easy does it...will keep at it.

Used 3/4 lb at the end. 


6th time at the gym this month and loving it. The cycle room is empty, I can watch my form in the mirror and focus on practice! What's not to love?
