The gloves are on!

In order to keep things interesting I'm always on the lookout to vary my training.  I've tried spinning classes recently with great success and enjoyment.  Today I tried Boxercise!  

Two of the lads at work, Paul (aka Bowmonkey) and Simon roped me into the lunch time session.  An enjoyable 45 minute workout was had by all.  Although I have to say that it was very strenous indeed.  I used muscles that were last used fighting the bullies in the school playground way back in the 1980s! Ok then the 1970's!!   I could hardly move my upper body this afternoon.  Typing this blog is a bit of an effort!  

We didn't rest after Boxing as, afterwards, Simon was seen doing a few chin ups.  Bowmonkey and myself did a few weights.  All we needed was Rocky's trainer Mickey shouting "Yer a dirty good for nuthin bum!" and we would have re-created Rocky's 1 - 3!!!!  Don't expect any shots at the title this century though!
