Today is the midweek active rest day and I have decided that I will be more flexible in doing 15-21 min of stretching and mobility choosing from time to time what I feel like doing, so today 15 min of sun salutation Yoga :)

I'm loving this sci-fi short story series: The Murderbot Diaries Series
Emotional growth and one's awareness of the robotic character are tender :)
You know when you find a series that you really like because you don't stop until the books are finished, I'm on my third...

Today is a holiday in Italy, the gym is closed but I wanted to maintain the order of training that I am experimenting with and therefore I dusted off a nice kettle at home :)
Full Swing Workout didn't convince me much to look at it but due to the chosen weight (16kg) and the repetitions foreseen by the workout despite the 2 minute rest between the sets I huffed like a steam locomotive, yes i had a lot of fun :LOL:
I remain of the opinion that training with kettlebells is much more fun than the machines and barbells in the gym.

Today I went to the gym even though I wasn't in the mood to and I also used a different weight bench than my usual one, a small step out of my comfort zone :)
I have to learn to take the various nuisances that invariably punctuate life a little less badly and today I achieved a small victory :LOL:
