We are almost halfway through the month and I will take it easy for personal training until the Muay Thai course ends, there is no point in trying to plan something when your legs hurt for 3 days :P
So I'll have some fun messing around later on. :)

I didn't go to Muay Thai last night, it didn't help that my friend who I always train with didn't come and the idea of doing a 20 minute strength circuit in the gym courtyard with a storm of allergies...
Anyway since it's my responsibility and I felt guilty I did some strength training today :LOL:
The trick of using just one light kettlebell and doing one-arm exercises when it's too light works well. :)

I definitely sweat less doing combat workouts because they are easier for me. :)
In July I will return to training in the gym in the morning since the Muay Thai course is no longer there, I hope to make peace with strength training with weights since I messed it up on my own, together with artificial intelligence :LOL:

Today I didn't train because I preferred to cut the lawn, the temperatures are not prohibitive yet and cutting it now I won't think about it for a while, between the heat and the dryness it will grow little or not at all.
Even the allergy with the precaution of keeping a mask went well.
The raspberry is giving me great satisfaction this year and the blackberries are even more but they have to finish ripening. Every day I harvest the ripe raspberries and we eat them the next morning for breakfast. :)

I'm letting myself go a bit when it comes to training but between the end of the old training session that will end this week and the start of the next summer training session in the gym I don't really feel like doing more than the minimum :P

I resisted laziness and did the last Muay Thai lesson, also because at the end there was a small party. :)
Today active recovery, more passive than active... :LOL:
I bought a small desk cooler, it's basically a box where you put cold water with a fan but compared to a normal fan it makes a little cooler.
We have a large one in the living room that we really like, an alternative to air conditioning when it's not really too hot. It cools a bit and doesn't have all the side effects of air conditioning.

I looked at my training notes and I've definitely been derailed in the last month in terms of consistency and intensity of training, due to the heat, the unexpected and also laziness. It's the problem of the end of the cycle, you don't feel like doing it anymore but it's not completely over yet. :P
However, at least one of the things I promised myself I would do, I actually did: I trained every week with kettlebells to prepare myself for future gym workouts. :yas:
Yesterday we had another ant invasion but we managed to handle it, my wife better than me who showed signs of hysteria. :LOL:

I'm not in any pain, just a little sore, so the gym workout worked well.
The new challenge with just 5 classic push-ups done slowly and at the maximum range works well, so I'll keep it like this for now, so that I'll be able to do it in any case as a little final extra.
Today I practically melted doing a workout that usually makes me sweat little or not at all :LOL:
I'll have to think about how to better dose the combat workouts.
