@Nepia what kind of psycho loves a 35C day? Honestly...
This one.
Man I'm so happy being back in a cooler climate. From 33 every day ro a high of 16 today, awesome.
Did a 1hr walk with the fam this morning, then a 4km run with the older kids, then a 7km run on my own after dropping them home.
The QT- Frankton is so good.
That sounds awful - today was the best day we've had in Sydney in ages.

Looks like LesMills have provided free at-home workouts during the virus outbreak.
Bloody good on them! -

@Nepia after 3 months of 32-34 degrees @ 90% humidity, EVERY SINGLE DAY, I am loving the cooler temps here.
Aside from my run, I didn't sweat all day today - first time in 90 days I can say that!!! 🤣
34 degrees in Sydney today!
I actually went for a swim!

@Nepia only 25 here and I went for a swim today, and yesterday and the day before, you sound like a wuss
It doesn't need to be 34 for me to swim, mostly the bushfires fucked the swimming this year.

Thought a few of you might benefit from this... 😉But seriously there are no excuses when there are lots of free resources to work out from home, I've had a lazy weekend and less active week working from home. I can see how it would be easy to put on a few lbs and get down, need to keep moving. Tomorrow's a fresh start going plan a routine for midday I think to perk me up for the afternoon.

Had to move all the reformers around in our pilates studio so everyone is 1.5m apart which has result in us now having a couple of them in the garage so looks like I will be doing some pilates now with my own personal instructor!
Also managed a good week of riding last week - great exercise in isolation. 86km for the week which is a fair bit for me and a fair bit of it off road too.

We're ok to go for a run or a ride as long as we keep 2m right, even at level 4?
That's my interpretation

We ordered a large oval springfree trampoline last week. Realised the way things were going and wanted it for the kids but also for me and the mrs!
We have a concept 2 rower in the mancave too.
Run most days with the buggy to get daughter to sleep and I bike ride 100km plus a week.
Was in Richmond park yesterday and made sure I didn't draft or ride with anyone but there were a lot of group rides still going and you can see them stopping together in big clusters so screwing the social distance thing right up.
Frustrates me as they will get us all banned when cycling can be a brilliant self isolation exercise if you are not being silly!

@Davesofthunder pictures of Richmond park this morning (from yesterday) were pretty bad....almost Bondi beach bad...

If we can't get outside I'm going to kill one of my kids.
Make sure it's the fastest one so you get some decent exercise in while chasing them.
Not the chubbiest to fill out the freezer?
-
Yeah, I was super unimpressed.
Loads of groups walking and clustering around car parks.
Its frustrating because if done sensibly it is a great way to get out and stay healthy.
The group bike riders annoyed me the most as it is so easy on a bike to maintain plenty of distance if you just choose not to draft or group ride. (And I want to keep riding. I can step out my door for a couple of hours and interact with nobody yet get great exercise!)

I have a pull-up/dip station, about 100kg of weights, punch bag, treadmill and rower...expect to be ripped by the end of 4 weeks...or I'll pull a muscle tomorrow and be fat AF by the end....on a knife edge really.

You'll get him eventually, so may as well save him/her to when you're low on energy as well.
