I apparently haven’t updated everyone on all the excitement around here since thursday, so here is everything I have been up to since then…
Well everything exercise related anyway, I suspect even with the increase in time people seem to have on their hands you don’t want an update on every time I hugged a cat or made a coffee… (suffice it to say both happen pretty often) ok full disclosure, it is mainly going to be pictures.
So…friday was a day of yoga and dance and walking around…
I tried the shed gym out as a place to dance… it works pretty well at the moment, even if the floor is a bit lumpy…
On Saturday I decided to attempt to get some improvised strongwoman training in, so I hooked my harness up to the garden roller and dragged it up and down… it wasn’t that heavy but still good if you run (trot) with it!
Later on, I attempted to make my 28kg kettlebell heavy enough for heavy deadlifts by adding resistance bands… it worked reasonably well… I also decided that resistance bands would be the basis of the work out for the day…
There was, also, of course, some walking…it’s government sanctioned you know!! 😁
Sunday mainly involved walking, and some delivery of provisions to a friend who is self isolating…
It was blooming cold!!
Monday I woke up extremely grumpy and out of sorts…
I managed to do some yoga then at lunchtime I went and danced in the shed gym…this cheered me up no end and I resolved to do it more often!!
I was so cheered up in fact, that I made a surgical plan, then went for walk 😁
I am considering changing the name of this project to project lockdown 2020… but I haven’t decided yet 😁
Project Warrior Goddess 
Please don’t change the name. I’d feel as if that was a signal of the end.
Have you decided on flooring the shed? Not as in, knocking it flat (although with your mighty strong Warrior Goddess strength you obviously could with a mere flick of a pigtail). No, are you going to lay a nice, non-bumpy floor in it?

Oh that’s amazing! I never expect to be motivational…I mostly assume people will think I am slightly crazy!

Such a good point, I’ve always given up without trying different things before this particular journey 🙂

It is so important, forcing yourself to do something you hate will never work in the long run!
I can highly recommend Shaun T dance programmes (actually any Shaun T programme but the dance ones are the ones I am living at the moment)

I might give him a go. Even if my coordination makes mr magoo look intentionally coordinated, it would be fun to try something different.
