Closely followed by my second, third, forth and fifth… then I did another five! I was (and… Read More Project 44: day 44 – a lockdown Paddington!
The shed gym is now complete, and it is totally brilliant! Tuesday saw the delivery of the final piece of equipment and meant we could organise it properly to be usable for everything we do! That final piece of equipment was the power rack. It was a bit of a challenge finding one what would… Read More Project 44: day 42 & 43 – Shed gym, final phase complete!
Yesterday morning, over breakfast, a pallet full of weights and gym flooring arrived at my house! Needless to say this was extremely exciting!

I might have mentioned previously how much I love the shed gym… well it is still true so I thought I’d say it again!

Yesterday, a whole day early, the kit for phase two of the shed gym was delivered!! They looked rather like a giant and very heavy witches hat!

Now, not only am I working out from home, as of yesterday I am also working from home… I am spending an awful lot of time at home! This is not a surprise however, we are on more or less lockdown after all! It does mean that I suddenly have far fewer opportunities to walk… Read More Project 44: Day 28 working from home
