So I've not been training well at all lately partly due to having broke my hand again, but also mostly because I was just not motivated or had the will power to start again!

So this is the purpose of this thread for me to mark off each day (hopefully) successfully having finished some form of training and having completed over 10000 steps

I prefer the combat programs having previously trained in Kickboxing and boxing but decided that I was just going to attempt whatever Darebee has to throw at me

So the plan is to do the exercise of the day, Daily Workout, complete the monthly Challenge whilst also completing the 60 days of HIIT

Today saw me complete
100 side Jack's
7 sets alive and awake workout
Day 1 of the power hold challenge &
Day 1 of 60 days of HIIT

Currently only at 8500 steps roughly but still plenty of time to complete that!

So day 2 and still feeling good!

So today saw me go back to playing 5aside football! Was blowing out my arse by end of it havn't ran or done much cardio bar a few dog walks since I broke my hand but felt good to be back and managed to survive for the full hour!

Followed this up with 7 sets of the workout of the day and straight into the exercise of the day! Tried to do it in one go but it took me two, Shoulders were feeling it for definite!

After a quick break to sort the family out back to complete 7 sets of Day 2 of 60 days of HIIT, managed to keep 8 lunges on each leg throughout bar the last set on my 2nd leg only managed 7 lol

Then attempted to do day 2 of the monthly Challenge and it was less successful my hand and wrist are still sore but despite maybe not getting many reps I did the 3 sets of maximum and 10 sec hold so I'll count it as a success as better than anything I've done in a while!

Also managed to already meet the 10000 steps for the day (mainly due to the football) and this was finished off by a plunge in my ice bath so hopefully that will help the shoulders and legs not feel so bad tomorrow!

So Day 3...my legs were feeling it today! First day back to work aswell so not happy lol

Completed 7 sets of Day 3 of 60 days of HIIT followed by day 3 of the January Challenge and then the exercise of the day ( again couldn't finish in one but split of 40 and 20 wasn't too bad given how my legs were feeling before I started lol)

Also managed over the 10000 steps again

Feel bad for not attempting the workout of the day but don't want to do to much and either injury myself or put myself off training at all!

It's all about finding what works and
making it a habit!

Day 5...my legs finally started tonfeel better today, or so I thought!

Another wee 5 aside match for an hour

Due to time constraints today decided to go straight to the gym after and do day 5 of 60ndays of HIIT, that was a bad idea only managed 5 sets of it before I was busted! Moved on to the exercise of the day and broke it down into 5 sets followed by the workout of the day as I thought it looked liked it would be a nice wee cool down!

Day 6

Completed day 6 with 5 sets of 60 days of HIIT with dumbbells followed up with the exercise of the day (I wasn't sure if it was meant to be 60 seconds on each leg or 60 in total so did 2 sets of 30 secs on each leg with no break)

Followed by 7 sets of the workout of the day and finishing off with the challenge of the month (more pushup than last time tho still not happy but means my hand is starting to get stronger atleast and it's all about the baby steps at first!)

On course to make the 10000 step total aswell

Day 8!
What a start to the morning, wee 3 mile walk to get some breakfast and then a 3 mile walk back! Which was then followed by another 5 aside game!

After this my legs weren't up to much and then having to start night shifts I wasn't in the mood either! Lol

Day 13!

Another day completed, after a bad start to the morning with the boiler breaking I wasn't in the mood for training by the time I had got it sorted!

Tho I told myself that I should especially having seen the workouts for the day I thought I'd fly through them!

How wrong I was, yes day 12 of the 60 days of HIIT May have only taken 10 mins to complete but I forgot how much I hate ab day (mainly as I have beer keg and not abs) lol but got through all 5 sets and then completed the workout of the day in one 60sec sitting before rounding it off with day 13 of the January Challenege

Also managed to get the 10000 steps in for the day too!

OK so I've been away for a little bit but it was to celebrate my 10th anniversary and I did make sure to get my steps in (for most of the days anyway I promise)

But back home and back at it today, started with a wee 4 mile walk with the wife and dog after the school run and then a game of 5 aside!

Went to the gym after having found a new program which sounded interesting so going to give it ago!

Will be back to the Darebee grind too come February
