I have not been doing any weights just a bit of rowing in 5 weeks I have transformed from a skinny fat unfit drunken old man into a slighty fitter skinny fat not quite so drunk old man a couple of weeks back I hit 1.44.8 for 500m on the ski erg (faster than Boar)

today I did a 2k on the rower 7.23.4 my target was under 7.30 now i'm dreaming of going sub 7 again.
(what did Steve Redgrave say?)

box jumps up to 26.5 inches chuffed with that
KBell deadlifts 2x20 with a pair of 16kg's

found a renewed hate of row erg

Would like to go sub 7 again next year and bench 140 again.
