This week my strength tests have been influenced by bad pain across the back of my shoulders.

radiating down toward my middle of my back.

No, I don't think I am having a heart attack, but I do think I have muscle

strain in my back from when I was jumping on the trampoline.

I noticed that it has been since then...

It was good in theory!!! 

But really happy with the time trial which just about killed me this time!
I made so much noise that Stu (Hubby) came running out the back

because he thought I had done some damage!!! 

I have mixed up my exercise this week,

I have only been on the cross trainer once.

Walked up to the lookout about 3 times.

I did the 5km run/walk to the video shop and back yesterday which is major kilometers for me!

Its great to feel so fit and vibrant again!

Start Round 1 2013 Fitness Test.... or unfitness...

I did my fitness test on the cross trainer.

It doesn't mention to use it on the program, 

but I figure I set my own pace, not like a treadmill and really its all about measuring results.

I can measure my results more accurately on that.

Time Trial : 8.3mins

Push Ups on Knees: 23

Abdominal Strength: 59 secs on Knees

Wall Sit; 1.1o mins

Sit & Reach: -8cm.

The sit and reach surprised me, I've always been fairly flexible!

The last time I did the time trial i did it in over 10 minutes,

the the ground here is up and down which I thought a more accurate measurement for fitness improvement would be the cross trainer.

Push Ups, my husband bet me 21, I just had to beat that!

Looking forward to seeing how things improve.

Ive done my weekly shop,

Ive cleaned out the fridge and cupboard.

I will prepare what I can in advance of an evening to take to work the next day and for my meal the following night.

2 nights a week I have to have a quick meal as I teach a Scrapbook Class

and also have a Ball Meeting on the other night.

Organisation will be the key to this journey!
One I hope I can stay on for a very long time, until the journey is normal anyway!
