5) First day back to working from home. Walk with kids after work. Push ups and kettlebells in evening
6) No walk, tied up with work. Push ups, a bit of core, some stretching. Probably not quite half an hour, but nearly..
7) Lunchtime run - 6.3 km, slightly over my a allotted half hour, but had to walk a few icy bits. Evening board session. OK on big moves and slopers, terrible on crimps, and stamina through the floor. Good to be back on it though. Push ups.

Pretty sure I updated the "Keeping It Real - Ales" thread with my AF top 5(ish) ages ago..need to add to it as the Lucky Saint Lager is actually pretty good / the only AF lager I've found thus far that's palatable.

Only update from me was still Dry January. A whole week off the ale!

I ran a stopwatch once while on a bouldering session to see how much time you are actually moving. When trying hard problems, it's a dismayingly tiny amount.

My first 7 days:

1. 81.7kg. Run (3.4km) 17mins. Yoga 15 mins. Core 5 mins.

2. 82kg. Dumbbell conditioning circuit 21mins. Yoga/core/shoulder physio 13mins. (Walk with baby, 40-50 mins!)

3. 81.6kg. Run (4.16km) 20:25 mins. Yoga/shoulder 13 mins.

4. 81.6kg. Long day at work. Yoga/shoulders 15min

5. 81.9kg. Conditioning circuit 24 mins. Yoga at least 10 mins.

6. 81.0kg.  Floor core. 6 min.  Run 24min 50sec (5.12km). Yoga/shoulder 13 mins.

7. 80.5kg Dumbbell conditioning ~11 mins. Got stopped by baby... Yoga 11 mins.

Average week 1 weight: 81.5kg

Pausing the stop watch for any big rests if doing circuits.

Didn’t make 30 mins everyday, but diet has been pretty good and no booze. Very committed to that this year!

True, but this is sharkathon, so walking to boulders counts.

Even then there’s usually more time spent walking than pulling on holds

I factored in 6 mins of walking each way with two pads and kit, a bit of a warm up and then some pulling on holds but maybe I've overestimated.
If I get to the end of the month I hope this session doesn't discount me from the free Sharkathon 2021 t shirt.

It wasn't a criticism, it was a "just saying".

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!

31/12 - 4 mile round trip walking/jogging with my son on his new bike. In the evening, some pushups and other things on paralettes
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.
2/1 - some stretching, 4 mile loop as per Thursday
3/1 - short campus session. First time back in ages, so not a great session but you’ve got to get back on the wagon somewhere. A mile or so pushing a pram to accompany the tiny cyclist.
Monday 4/1 - 5x5 weighted pull-ups. Not done these for a while so down on previous efforts. 2x10 hammer curls and some feeble knee to bar sets later on too.
5/1 - sets of different varieties of pushups plus static holds
6/1 - aerobic 5-3-5-3-5 foot on campus session, more feeble knee to bar sets.
7/1 - 30min/2mile walk with the tiny cyclist
8/1 - campus session. Good improvement over the one on the third. Then a push session.

20 mins stretching and joint mobilization out of necessity rather than choice.

Walked 18km at work.

At work early tomorrow so probably won't do anything else

Had to dig deep today, Sharkathon got me out when I could easily have not bothered.

Foggy all day today in Sheffield. Dogs wouldn’t have got a walk without Sharkathon
