Week 6 Day 11: Fireheart Ngl this one sucked!! Didn't sleep much last night and it's been a long week so Ive been super tired all day - but whatever it's a Saturday I'll just have a duvet day, watch some cartoons right? Except by the time I pried myself out of bed to do my exercises - I'm...

Week 6 Day 10: Fireheart Regaining my confidence a bit now and having all together too much fun with those knees and elbows playing with different styles lunging all the way from one end of the mat to the other - def did more than I was supposed to, lost count and just kept going cos it was...

Week 6 Day 9: Fireheart Core day again today and I managed to do the sit-ups this time whilst keeping my heels and butt on the ground - so no need to mod after all After last time I felt really strong in the abs, I guess because I hate doing it so I don't means that when I do it's easy to...

Week 6 Day 8: Fireheart Felt like challenging myself today and since it's arms day (not much gammy knee involvement) I went for it!! Did all the pushups properly!! My form wasn't great by the last set - but I did them, even the raised leg ones - getting strong!! 💪

Week 6 Day 7: Fireheart Had to be real careful with those lunges - did a bit of research to check my form and did them reverse style to take the pressure off the knee and they were manageable - also reintroduced cautious side to side lunges in my stretch routine #KneetureIsHealing Slow and...

Week 6 Day 6: Fireheart Into my 6th week of daily training and y'know, I'm pretty proud of that - not stopping for nothing, not even p bad injuries - I'm adapting and working around, but I'm not stopping!! And I think that's something to be proud of!! These leg raises (I've got them on my...

Week 5 Day 5: Fireheart That's me at the end of week 5 of daily training - it feels like a lifetime ago now I was battering my way through Fighters Codex this bad knee has me feeling elderly! 👵 This one was pretty good tho I did half the pushups properly cos I had to go straight into the...

Yeah I thought about crunches but I had to do punches at the top of them - I guess I could punch up instead of forward 🤔 Idk from reverse sit-ups - but I'll look 'em up!

Week 5 Day 4: Fireheart Yeah my knee is still not better - which pretty much means it's tendons/ligaments and will take ages to heal properly 🤬 So! Slow and steady for me for a while!! Especially on them squats and kicks, and keep at my knee-hab routine Still, another day another workout!! ✅

Week 5 Day 3: Fireheart Yeah I'm not a fan of core day!! (is anyone?!) My knee is gradually getting better, fortunately there are no stairs in my house cos I tried to do those yesterday on my way to vote and ‼️‼️ #nope So maybe this month is about discipline! Doing the difficult thing...

Week 5 Day 2: Fireheart Day 2 today - these are so super light! But honestly, thank goodness because I think I partially dislocated my knee on that Bruce Lee one!? (that's what happens when you train beyond fatigue - when will I learn?!) Was super sore yesterday and I accidentally knelt on...

Week 5 Day 1: Fireheart Ok!! I'm right back at it with Fireheart this time!! Yesterday was fun (up until set 4 then it was just exhausting!!) I really enjoyed playing with that classic Jeet Kune Do stance a lot - but it was absolutely hella reps and I've knackered my knee and slept for 11...

Day 30: Fighters Codex I did it!!!? 🏆 2 effin hours - but I did it!! Debrief later For now I desperately I need protein and and a shower and like 4 or 5 buckets of water!! 🥵

Day 29: Fighters Codex Day 29 complete with just one more day to go to complete the mission - ain't nothing can stop me now!! :kungfu: I do enjoy this classic training style over the circuits - good challenge but not too grindy as to get boring Hard work but nothing i can't handle at this...

Day 28: Fighters Codex Well that was fairly hellish - although I did (I think) make some progress on the forward bends by rolling my feet out to the sides and bending my knees a little - I was able to get a bit more rotation in the hips (I think my hip joints have that thing where they're...

Day 27: Fighters Codex Done! ✅ That is a LOT of punches and it's so hard to get motivated for casual training on a lazy Saturday - but I did it!!

Day 26: Fighters Codex Relatively easy one again today - pretty short although p high intensity The timer was wonky again 🤷‍♀️ was doing switch stance style but I got to the end and the timer was still going, so I started over from backfists - but then it stopped before I got to the end...

Day 25: Fighters Codex Just 5 days left to go now!! That was haaaard!! Came in with fatigue and all those kicks and the bounce squat push up intervals were absolutely exhausting!? Glad I had my protein packed overnight oats this morning else I may have perished!! 🥵

Day 24: Fighters Codex Morning y'all! Into the last week of the program now with a relatively easy session - slow kicks are getting pretty strong but my balance still isn't great (using a "Jo staff" aka broom handle to help balance during the kicks - and just wobbling around and falling and...

Day 23: Fighters Codex Another Day done and another 2000+ punches ✅ Getting nice and fluid with these and excited to get back on the heavy bag once I've finished the DIY to see how these are landing (af I'm guessing!)
