I haven't been blogging much lately but my training is going really well! My muscles feel rock hard & I've really been enjoying my exercise science unit. During the course of the last three weeks we've done long distance running & drills in the running practicals plus body weight exercises & free weights in the weights room. I've now learnt how to perform a deadlift & I can now successfully complete 4 unassisted chin ups. Our trainer has also been instructing us how to train & spot for others in the gym environment--- I'm certain that it will be helpful in the future.
I have had a bit of trouble fitting in training sessions but I've decided to start going to the gym after my practicals so that will let me get 4 L&S sessions in per week. My nutrition has been pretty decent & I've been maintaining my weight--- I have allowed a few less healthy foods but nothing excessive. I need to do a bit more pre-planning when it comes to taking food to uni, often I forget to pack lunch in the morning & end up buying either sushi or a sandwich (both low in calories but not as nutritious as something home made). I've discovered some more healthy snacks so that I'm not constantly drinking protein shakes while I'm at home.
My weak point this semester is my organisation when it comes to study. This is probably just because of the huge summer break between semesters--- I'll really need to put in some effort to get back into the swing of things. I've skipped a few lectures already so I need to sit down & watch them all to catch up... It's week 4 already so I need to get on top of things.
