My biggest weights session post-Op, 14 sets in total across 7 exercises. I felt weak on some exercises and strong on others, but the main things is that I got it done. 5 days into a busy start of year and 3 workouts is no bad start, it certainly speaks volumes on my determination. One…

Short and sweet – 15 minutes on the bag and trampette – although it was interrupted by tech issues as I sought to roll out a new system. With it being the new year there’s some updating across the board, which always comes with teething problems. Hence I’ve only attached a snippet of the workout…
