Finally back to training

So anyway for at least three weeks now, maybe close to four, I have been ill and have not been able to train at all. I had flu, then a chest infection which seems like it has come to an end now but I have a lingering cough - very annoying. 

However, last night I finally felt able to do a little training so I went at a bodyweight circuit and just did it once (and now I am glad I did):

warm up
12 x step ups each leg
12 x elevated press ups
24 x front lunges
12 x horizontal rows
24 x reverse lunges
8 x pullups (felt so weak at these I stopped at four and managed to make the 8 in another go)

Kick Specific
20 x side leg swings each leg
20 x front / rear leg swings each leg
repeat
10 x placed side kicks each leg
10 x placed turning kicks each leg
20 x fast side kicks each leg
20 x fast turning kicks each leg

5 min abs:
10 x knee ups
1 min front plank
1 min side plank each side
20 cross over mountain climb things

After only once round I was shattered, looks like this flu really took it out of me. I actually feel a little sore today which is a little depressing at four weeks ago I could bang out that circuit 3 times and feel great. 

Still, you've gotta start somewhere again.

Feeling Good

James.
