Monday was busy day training clients, but rest for me !
Tuesday Rpm class followed by 4Km run, wipes your legs big time, coming off bike and hitting the running !
Still feeling very lethargic and not losing fat or weight, hoping nothing wrong, think my body may still be adapting to new regime ?

Latest Update
Friday was (as always) RPM in the morning, that was it
Saturday meant a little bit of swimming (and some flumes ) as had planned to do road race on Sunday
No road race today, so 90 minute cycle then 20 min run.
Long beach walk then some boules on beach, making up games and rules as we went, also received my new (well some of them) competition kettlebells today

Wednesday's Workouts
Another good day, getting easier to motivate myself to train, without making up or listenung to the usual old excuses !
This morning saw the return of the kettlebells, if I'm being honest being avoiding them as I know how much I've let myself slip with them. If you know kettlebells, you'll know how unforgiving they are !
Workout consisted of 2 Kettlebell snatches for time, embarrassingly only lasted 3 mins, 1 minute rest then 3 mins again !
Moved onto 1 KB snatches fro 2 sets of 2 mins
Next up was snatches, 3mins each side with one arm swings to finish off.
This afternoon I scouted out the route for Sundays cycle race, tough course, I covered 2 laps today (8 laps on Sunday) 30K ride including to start of circuit and back, 1 hour so not too bad a workout

Weekend training
Saturday, rested up for Bike race on Sunday
Sundays bike race, round most of Jersey, taking in nearly every bay, which means HILLS ! I managed to get stuck between 2 groups, so did most of it on my own, which led to me taking 2 wrong turns !! Adding some 5KM and 2 hills onto route, needless to say came last after that, but 2.5 hours hard cycling done :)
Tired old body today, so resting up for big day tomorrow

Last week
OOOOOPS !!! Forgot to post training for last week !
Still on it, mostly RPM and cycling this week, so all good.
Was at a white collar boxing night last night which also proved the difference people can make, to their lives, fitness and weight loss in only 10 weeks these guys had. Plus learning how to box, which is no mean feat.
