So I have been seriously slacking off on anything physical the first part of this year. Getting back into it this week but focused more on just general fitness (killed my gym memberships except for the rock climbing gym).
I want to actually lose some weight to fight the nasty affects of diabetes. and build what I term resilient strength. Focus will be around Yoga, kettlebells and cycling.
Today: Easy start
20 min of yoga.
KBs still need to be purchased.

So my cardio is absolute bull 
139 average during yoga. Ashamed I let it drop this much.
I no longer consider my self an in-shape dude even though my weight and appearance has stayed fairly constant.

You going to run the 10k swing challenge?
Don’t think so. I got one of those books by Pavel though. Starting there.
Adding these 2 to my full set of EliteFTS bands I should be able to get some decent hypertrophy in.

Cool, I’ve glanced at his stuff very briefly, will be interested to see how it plays out.
Can do a lot worse than some bands and KB for hypertrophy/conditioning

31 min yoga
Legs are quite sore from the KN work yesterday but I think not as tight as normal from DOMS thanks to the Yoga.
The isometric work during the yoga is excellent too.
May 11th,
Spent all afternoon (5pm - 830pm) clearing out the garage to get it ready for a floor coating. (Wife is expoxy-ing the floor while I am out of town this weekend). Only thing left to move is my toolbox, but at least that has wheels.
Overall not too strenuous, but constant activity for a few hours.
