Day 15 – strength at ‘home’
This is the courtyard area at our Champagne apartment, in Epernay. If my home looked this good, I’d be happy to train there everyday!! So I took full advantage of this amazing location, right on Avenue de Champagne, 1 door up from Pol Roger and 2 doors up from Moet & Chandon. Not too bad at all.
I’m doing another early morning session, although it looks more like midday. Got to love the long days of summer – they’re just around the corner for those of you in Australia.
This is an upper body strength move. Moving one hand/forearm at a time, you cycle between a plank and a full push-up position. It’s quite difficult, so even advanced people will only be doing 8 repetitions. Strength training today is a mixture of upper body, lower body and even some core. A nice, well-rounded routine to keep you working hard, but not overloading any one muscle group.
