Christian Ainley my day to day

  I woke up early and did a little bit of course work I’m nearly at the end, I’m currently working on unit 7 of 8. As ER is on Netflix I had that playing in the background.  After pancakes because it is shrove Tuesday and the start of lent for Christians, dare you give up something for 40 days until Easter Sunday ? It was to the gym.  Rowing to start and I know I normally add a picture of the summery screen but the sensor on the only decent rowing machine was playing up. It was 30mins and 384 calories.  On to dead lifts and adding 20kg to a bar then another 10kg to finish off.  Oh to machine rows and starting with 50kg going up to 57kg Lat pull downs and starting with 50kg again and going up to 57kg it was low reps to finish as I struggled.  Reverse flys to finish and starting with 42.5kg going up to 57kg it was a struggle agin and finish.  It was a good session and slightly higher weight this week.  Have fun stay safe👍🏼

 Sunday afternoon was a walk around the estate followed by Rowley footpath after cutting in to it via Pinewood hotel. It was a nice walk and I finished of my audio book and started a new one, more to come soon.  Only two golf balls but the weather has been absolutely disgusting and I’m sure most of the golf course is flooded and hard to get round. Monday I had intended to go to the gym after work but instead it was finishing off unit 6 of my course on team leading, It was conflict management and delivering feedback, I managed to finish it off and submit it only two units to go !  It’s been a good couple of days, let’s see what tomorrow brings!  Have fun stay safe 👍🏼

  British cycling has evolved from the millennium to where it is now. it was an underfunded sport that was hard to break into. Slowly this changed and more resources were made available and a management team was put in place to drive success. They based themselves in the Manchester velodrome and recruited the best young riders from around the country.  Steve Cummings entered that program to become an Olympic cyclist for Great Britain, Steve is a great cyclist but by his own admission he’s better suited to long road races rather than punchy Olympic short races on a velodrome. This book covers the start of his career through to his specialty of getting in to the break and riding solo for the win.  With in this book he gives an insight into team sky and team GB as well as the other teams he’s ridden for, he doesn’t hold back an where there were problems he holds his hands up.  It’s a good sporting biography sand if you know an aspiring cyclist then they’ll enjoy it. It ...

  It’s back to the gym and cross trainer to start on intervals, I didn’t push too hard after two tough days. 1.54km in 30 mins. Cable tri pull downs with a bar 16.5kg up to 28kg.  Over head tri pulls starting with 20kg up to 28kg Rope pull downs starting with 16.5kg up to 28kg  Some bar presses staring with 15kg up to 30kg. The tri machine next starting with 50kg up to 58kg it was a struggle.  Wide chest press to finish starting with 19kg up to 30kg and back down to 19kg. It was a good session.   Gave fun stay safe 👍🏼

  I woke up early and while having a nice breakfast of granola and yogurt I worked on the next unit on the leadership course. Equality, diversity and inclusion. I worked through the first half of the unit and decided to get out and have some fresh air.  It was a nice long walk up to Windsor and then up the long walk to George III statue and back into town. It wasn’t a pizza express today but an adult happy meal from McDonald’s for the Friends toy. Today it was a Ross to go along side Chandler from last week. I came home and finished off unit 5 and submitted it for marking.  A nice day all in all let’s see how unit 5 gets on. With my poor grammar I’m unlikely to get a plagiarism strike.  Have fun stay safe 👍🏼

  I’ve completed half of the Principles Of Team Leading course. Unit 4 has been marked and I’ve passed only 4 more to go.  In all honesty it’s a bottom weighted course with the first two units having 40% of the questions.  But it’s progress and I’ll soon be looking for my next project or course to study.  Have fun stay safe 👍🏼
