It’s the end of October already so you know what that means! My monthly exercise wrap-up post!
If this segment seems new to you basically at the end of each month I do a quick wrap-up post of my monthly exercise. This serves as a bit of a reminder for me of what I did and how my body was feeling so I can readjust if necessary as well as a bit of motivation [I hope!] for you lovely readers. You can see previous wrap-ups here if you are interested.
I’m a bit sad to say that indoor netball is finishing for good, we have played our last game at the Newmarket courts this month and we only have a semi final and hopefully a final which are going to be played elsewhere (read a pain in the butt to get too straight after work), so we will not be entering the next league.
Netball is something I really enjoy, in fact when I was in Wanganui I was playing four games a week for a while there and loved it! I’m not too sure what I’m going to do in replacement for netball, maybe a class at the gym, maybe go back to a four day a week gym split or maybe just use it as a training day for the triathlon?!
1st – Upper body at the gym
2nd – Legs at the gym (I had DOM’s for a few days after this, oh my quads!)

28th – Lower Body at the gym (a lot of single legged stuff, my glutes were fried!)
29th – Short walk around the domain

31st – Lower Body at the Gym.
You may have noticed that there are less rest days than usual this month and a few additional walks around the domain, I found this was quite a nice way to unwind for the day without putting much stress on the body so I think I will try to continue with this.
