Training Log Archive: Becks

8 mins aerobic, 4 x 3 (1), 13 mins aerobic. First rep felt awful, huffing and puffing all over the place, then they were ace. I was naughty and ran off the paths in the illegal wood. It is sooooo nice in there. Down with stupid Conservative councillors and their "not in my back garden" nonsense!

Strength session 2. Plank based stuff is tough but really, really boring.

I am really not happy with my weight at the moment. I know my volume is low, and I guess I'm not stressed etc, but I am way way heavier than I feel I should be. It's clearly visible on my core and thighs/bum. Food at home is basic, lots of veg, very little bad stuff, and I'm not snacking on crisps and chocolate and cake like in Edinburgh. I wonder if it's a physiological thing - stress hormones finally subsiding and my body thinking it's time to pile on the pounds to save up for the next time it happens? I guess I just have to grit my teeth and hope it drops off when training volume increases more - at the moment it's still very low. Still...not happy with it at all.
