[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

[REHAB] So this is the reality of rehab part #1. Small, controlled movements and the only weight in sight is a 1kg dumbbell! It's not very exciting and I don't even really need to be in the gym to do it, but the gym is my happy place so I'm choosing to do my rehab there, at least at the weekends. I know if I stick to what @sonia.p10.fitness tells me I'll be back to doing what I love soon. #strongwoman #strongman #rehab #strength #gym

[WOMAN DOWN] A trip to @sonia.p10.fitness this evening confirmed what I already suspected. After my first season of 7 months of full on training for successive national and international strongwoman competitions my body really isn't very happy with me at all. The tendons in my right forearm are strained and very unhappy. My sciatica has flared up probably due to general overload and inflammation and my outer left leg is also super sore to the touch. An hour of release, masssge, needles, scraping (I'm sure that's not the technical term but it's how it feels) and cups later and I've been taped up and sent back to the start of my rehab programme from almost exactly 2 years ago. I sort of knew this would be the case so had managed my own expectations in advance. It's frustrating but I know it's necessary. I'd started to mentally plan out my season for next year but I've decided to put that on hold. I need to give my body the time and attention it needs to heal and recover before I even think about another competition. And since I'll be training less for a few weeks it's time to really concentrate on nutrition and deal with the post holiday change in body composition that's occurred. I blame the dulche de leche 🤭 #strongwoman #strongman #injured #rehab #recovery #rest #strong #strength Coached by @strengthcoach_london Put back together (on a regular basis) by @sonia.p10.fitness Nutrition by @shannonsnutrition

]STREET ART] All this amazing street art is within a couple of blocks of our hotel in Montevideo. Looking forward to exploring more tomorrow. #streetart #montevideo🇺🇾 #uruguay🇺🇾 #travel

[PUNTA DEL ESTE] We're leaving Punta today to set off on the next part of our adventure. We've had a great few days here, giving Dean time to recover a bit from his Atlantic crossing and it's been a lot of fun spending time with Clipper crew and supporters. But we're ready to head off and explore a bit more of Uruguay now. Thank you @yachtclubpde for your hospitality. What a great stopover. #clipper1920 #uruguay🇺🇾 #travel #clipperrace #puntadeleste
