Apparently I do cardio now too??

Did my first session of couch to 5k - ran/walked about 3.5k in 30mins. Not a bad start!

hopefully it's more like goodbye to that stomach, but we'll see...

toasteh · 27 Jul 2016 at 10:14

I've only just started both, will see this running through to the end of the 9 weeks then see how to continue. if nothing else I should benefit from being able to run something other than a bath.

I know what you mean about the DL, i set it fairly low when I restarted and I feel like I can lift more. tbh Squats were a struggle today, wouldn't be surprised if DL catches/overtakes that soon.

lol what is update.

ironically enough, my legs have been giving me grief all week, been doing all the stretches i can find to try and ease things but not having much luck. dropped the weight on squats today so i could keep the movement without so much exertion, made my other lifts sooooooo much easier too as i had more energy for them.
