[STRONGWOMAN SUNDAY] It's not every Sunday you get to meet the 3 x World's Strongest Woman and her coach. Had a brilliant day @commandotemple with @trapsliketodd and @donna_moore_strongwoman. I had my log pressed checked out by Donna (thumbs up but watch for my knees collapsing in during the squat). It was fascinating to listen to Donna talk about the changes she's made in body composition and mindset in the run up to this year's comp. Then had the privilege of listening to Jenny explain how she put together Donna's World's programme. Really enlightening and explained a lot about why @strengthcoach_london programme's for me the way he does and got loads of tips that I can incorporate into my movement preparation and rest day mobility work. Thank you Donna and Jenny for being so generous with your knowledge and experience. Was great to see @cecile_sportstherapy @chickenwingsandothertings @liftlikeanerd @mighty_mayyah @silverbackblair and many other familiar strong faces. #strongwoman #worldsstrongestwoman #lovemysport #liftlikeagirl #strength #strong #alwayslearning

[SNATCH GRIP RDLs STOLE MY SOUL] Halfway through my RDLs tonight I found myself questioning why 47.5kg felt so hard. I used to do RDLs at 80kg earlier this year, surely I haven't lost that much strength? Then I realised - the snatch grip! I swear it adds at least 30kg to the weight of the bar. Good to be back to my weekday gym sessions though, just as silly season kicks in too. Coached by @strengthcoach_london #strongwoman #rehab #strength #strong #masters #natural

[BACK AND ARMS] Sunday gym session and a bit of back and arms today. Snatch grip RDLs which were tougher than expected, especially on the grip. Single arm rows and the first bicep curls I've done in years! Not shown narrow grip pull downs and tricep extensions with bands. Now for a rest day or two as I'm sure after 6 weeks of no weights my body is going to have something to say about all this. Bring on the DOMS!

[OFF SEASON] @sonia.p10.fitness has cleared me to start training with weights again and off season training 19/20 is GO! 3 goals: 1. Complete rehab and get rid of the last bit of sciatic pain 2. Lose some of the fluff that has accumulated in the last few months 3. Get as strong AF 1st session of my new programme from @strengthcoach_london this morning, pitched perfectly with weights which felt fine for the first few reps and then kicked in for a tough last couple. So good to be back! #strongwomen #strongwoman #rehab #masters #natural #strong #strength

[10 YEARS] Seen a few of these and thought it would be fun to join in. On the left October 2009 in Sydney on our Round the World honeymoon On the right October 2019 in Buenos Aires after Leg 1 of Dean's Clipper Round the World sailing adventure. We've got better taste in sunglasses, and are carrying a few less pounds between us and have switched sides for our selfies. Otherwise I don't think we really look that different, apart from Dean's beard of course! #10years #2009vs2019 #travel #roundtheworld #comparison

[ONE MONTH] It's now been exactly a month since I touched anything heavier than a 2kg dumbbell. My body is recovering and my brain is appreciating not having the stress that competition preparation brings. In these last couple of days I've started to feel a growing sense of frustrating at not being able to train. I'm taking this as a good sign - for the last couple of weeks it hasn't bothered me at all and I've actually enjoyed not being in the gym 4 times a week. But I can slowly feel the fire returning. I'm itching to get into my off season training with @strengthcoach_london. But only when @sonia.p10.fitness tells me I can of course! #strong #strength #strongwoman #masters #offseason #rehab #sportstherapy
