As tempting as it was so say "fuck it" and crack a can of IPA I've got in the cupboard, I'm gonna see this out.I reached for biscuits and chocolate instead which was also counter productive. January is hard going at the best times. Sharkathletes are going to have to dig deeper than ever.

Yeah, I'm in. I'm keen to try to use this as a way to keep a good training load on during lockdown with the hope of coming out of it marginally stronger. Aim is to spend a bit of time doing something different and focus on shoulders/back and push strength with fingers and fitness being maintenance for a month or so.Secondary goal is to get some more batteries for my scales and try to combine more exercise with a slightly better diet to glide back towards a better weight than I'm guessing I currently have!Thursday 31/12 - 4 mile round trip walking/jogging with my son on his new bike. In the evening, some pushups and other things on paralettesFriday 1/1 - decent session of pushing and a little pulling on paralettes and pullup bar, plus a mile or so more walking to accompany the tiny cyclist.
