[SUNDAY MORNING] We're away visiting family this weekend so no training for me. Instead I'm starting to read this to hopefully understand a bit more about strength training. #sundaygymday #alwayslearning #strongwoman @_jacklovett #strength #strong #strengthforlife

[IT'S OFFICIAL!] My place at the @worldheavyeventsassociation 2019 World Championships has been confirmed. I'm going to Finland! 🇫🇮 The events look great and all well within my reach: 1. Truck pull 😁😁😁 2. 150kg frame carry 3. 50kg log for reps 4. 70kg sandbag carry for distance The top 6 from Day 1 go through to day 2 1. Max deadlift 2. Crucifix hold 6kg 3. Loading medley and tyre flip I've got 13 weeks to be the strongest, fastest, best version of me I can be. Here's the plan: ⭐Follow my rehab plan and get my back totally healed. All being well reintroduce deadlifts and squats from August. ⭐I'm aiming to drop a couple of kilos of fat with the help of @shannonsnutrition. I'm going to sharpen up on the quality of my food intake, it's pretty good already but extra fruit and veg in place of processed snacks will never be a bad thing. I'm also going to cut down on alcohol. I only drink a couple of times a week but again a little less wine in my life won't hurt for a few months. ⭐I will follow my programme from @strengthcoach_london to the letter. He's got me this far and I have absolute faith that his programming will get me as ready as I can possibly be for October. ⭐I'm making a commitment to do some kind of mobility or pre-hab work every single day. This not very exciting or glamorous stuff is AS IMPORTANT as lifting for me. I know this and I need to keep getting it done. ⭐Regular trips to my Sports therapist to make sure that any niggles get dealt with before they turn into injuries ⭐Get enough sleep and stay hydrated. These things make SUCH a difference to how I feel and perform ⭐Make time each week for some mindfulness work - this really helped me in the run up to Brits This isn't hugely different to how I prepped for England's or Brits but writing it all down and sharing it will keep me focused! Let's do this! #strongwoman #strongman #bnsf #whea #Finland2019 #masters #nattyoldwoman

[LOG] Events for @worldheavyeventsassociation #usworldchampionships 2019 have been announced and I'll be seeing quite a lot of the log over the coming 12 weeks. First session this week and it was good to be back. Log in sets of 6 from 30kg to 40kg. First go at floor press - all fine until I got stuck under 30kg and @skorpion_fitness had to come to my rescue. Finished off with some lateral raises because that's what @strengthcoach_london said. Happy with the other events, plenty to work on but it all feels well within my reach. Just need my back to settle down so I can deadlift again, but plenty to be working on until then. #strongwoman #strongman #bnsf #masters #natty #nattyoldbird #worlds

[BALLS AND BANDS] More rehab and assistance work today - including stretching out tight quads and hip flexors on the ball - my face says it all. Some band work for lats and glutes. Feeling very tired after 2 nights of broken sleep but once again better for getting my body moving. #rehab #prehab #strongwoman #strength #strongman #strong #masters

[MOVING[ Felt good to be moving again this morning. Some rehab stuff to start followed by body weight squats, step ups and lunges followed by a bit of modified log and some push press. Nothing major just good to get my body moving again after a busy week at work with more time sitting down than normal. #strongwoman #strongman #strong #rehab #bnsf #masters

[PIRIFORMIS] 🍑 I saw my sports therapist last night and her verdict is that I've strained my piriformis. It's a muscle in the glute area that's involved in all sorts of things and can put pressure on the sciatic nerve when it's grumpy. A proper pain in the arse! 🍑 Some unhappy tendons around my hips are also adding to the pain party and the potential cause of the referred pain in my quads. 🍑 She thinks it's not too serious but has given me some lower body rehab to do - just bodyweight at the moment. No deadlifting or squatting for a couple of weeks. 🍑 World's is over 3 months away so I'm not worrying at all. A couple of weeks to fix this and rebuild my confidence will mean I'm ready to hit my World's programme full on once the events are announced. 🍑 Already looking forward to getting back to the gym this weekend for some pressing and back work as well as the rehab - my body is ready to get moving again. #masters #strongwoman #strongman #strong #womenwholift #BNSF #piriformis #downbutnotout
