Here what I did today

125 swings 32kg KB
375 swings 24kg KB

60 Body weight dips.

Thursday night played basketball for 50 mins, it was 2 on 2 and it was hard going. Heart rate was at 170bpm during it. The next day my knee blew up, so I strapped it up like on MWOD a couple of time and that did the trick to bring it down.

Diet wise, cant Christmas end and people stop visiting, wife go back to work and stop leaving the house like the retreat from Moscow with sweet strew everywhere.

Today

Well I am giving up, well just on the 10,000 swings challenge anyway. Completed the last two years and and fail to complete it twice now. Work is crazy I am going to be away form home at least two nights a week and with a colleague out for a few weeks at work it going to get crazier. So I can bring a bell with me around the country or be realistic and try do a program that is going to be less demanding. As the 10,000 swings is boring come week 2, a pain cause of the strict structure of the challenge which is to do it in a month. So if you miss a day, you are behind and you end up beating yourself up and in my case feeling bad about myself. So here goes the next program will be 3 days of HIIT and two strength or something to that effect.

After procrastinating today about the swings I finally hit the gym and did a 30mins HIIT session.

Diet was good today, well no junk. Under eat of 1200cals which is not good. But on the road and just could not get something to fit the bill so I am going to keep it at that today.

I usually do a bit the nights I don't train. Pick one thing to work on rather than try do everything. Or sitting on a squat for a bit every now and then has helped me as well. Doesn't need to be long...just a little bit regularly beats the hell put of trying to do a lot bit not doing it very often

Ok I'm going to have to ask...are those just numbers for the macros relative to each other in terms of calories?
