I've been low on updates lately... Ok, lets make it short and sweet. CAPOEIRA I missed capoeira twice because I was either knackered or sick, I still made it twice to the lesson and did my best. It pays off, I got praised in the roda for actually, for once, being able to play properly (I'm...

100 hops. :chicken:

MON 09-10-23 A good night sleep makes wonders. I'm feeling almost fresh and rested this morning (my body is tired, sore and slightly scratched here and there but my mind is fine) AM-- Power Builder #7 : Strength - 3 kg dumbells. Mods : Push-ups on the knees for all the sets. 10- count push-up...

@Nanna Io Thanks! I'm going really easy on the weights though, it's more for maintenance than actual gain, but I think I've done Ironborn 4 times already, some variety is always welcome! FRI 06-10-23 I was a couch potatoe most of the day, I got a lymphatic drainage at 1pm, then used my...

THU 05-10-23 I experienced an intense working day from 8am to 8pm and gave up on capoeira in the evening because going back home at 11pm was asking a bit too much of me. (usually I don't work in the morning) No regrets, there was pizza for dinner, and that's just what I needed. Also, I'm going...

WED 04-10-23 Woke up with a dull pain in the left knee, mostly due to capoeira and maybe a badly executed side lunge in Power Builder day 1. Put some ice on it while wondering if it was reasonnable to do the strength day of the program when my phone alarm told me that I had physio this morning...

TUE 03-10-23 I wanted to bollywood dance this morning but, energy-wise, I'm feeling like an overcooked spagethi. So I worked on my lacking senses of balance, coordination and proprioception. I didn't break a sweat but it's very challenging. I'll try to work on it more often. AM-- Balance and...

Congrats on completing your September challenges! :u:

@Zenchan : I'm quite happy with my run, indeed, this ability to speed up was a first. It feels very nice! (and yeah, I don't recommend lymphoedema having it 'under control' takes up a lot of time unfortunately.) Let's update it's been almost a week. WED 20-09-23 Nothing, I was tired. THU...
