I have identified during tonight's training session that despite careful guidance by Kristy regarding the importance of balancing my muscular training on either side of my body, my right arm is still stronger than my left. Please, no muffled schoolboy sniggering. It could have been quite serious.
The second set of 20 reps of Gym Ball press ups (thighs on ball, body straight, arms on floor) went into extra time, brought on by the inability of Instructors to count properly. You know - the stutter count, the 5, 4, 3, 2, 2, 2, 2, ...... 1 syndrome. I press up'd to failure and took a moment to catch my breath.
To quicken the dismount process, I gave a mighty push to force my body back over the ball and come smoothly to rest on my knees. Unfortunately, might right arm was working at about 50% capacity, but my left could only muster around 10%. This has the unfortunate effect of adding rotataional energy to an already tricky manouevre. I flipped off the side of the ball like a greased up seal with only one flipper. NOT very elegant. Had it not been for Kristy's valiant effort in halting my rotational progress, I fear I would have taken out the water fountain.
Current weight is 19 stones 2 pounds. (268 pounds / 121.5 kg)
