Lämmchen's Workout Thread

[Lamb]

I've been keeping regular runs and walks in, mostly gentle runs just to log the miles. I've been doing a lot of electrical work in confined spaces which is quite demanding on my leg muscles so sometimes my legs complain if I try and do that as well as running.

Today my arms ache as well. I don't need to go to the gym, playing with my young granddaughters is enough. They like me to pick them up and carry them but they're not getting any lighter. They really like it when I pick them both up at the same time, but I'm not sure how much longer I'll be able to do that.

Holding kids definitely strengthens your arms and your back!! Great training, until like you said, they get heavier and you can't do it or you actually hurt yourself. Know when to stop.

For me right now it's hard to know whether my muscles are aching because I'm getting older, because I was swinging my grandchildren around, because I've been running, or because I've been working in confined spaces pulling cables and connecting stuff over my head.

I've told my daughter she needs to stop feeding the children because they keep getting bigger.

Today's going to be a more gentle day. I'm going to walk rather than run. I kinda want to take the day off the electrics but we want to get our daughter moved in this week, and I need everything reconnected before she can move in.
