Thanks. Some of these are interesting additions to the pilates i already use, will certainly have a go at these. All but 2 of them can be done at home too, ( I don't own an erg ) which is always a bonus.

Well, I think you better not make me laugh too much today. Added the core stability ball exercises after my work out yesterday. My core is pretty strong but this added a new dimension. Good fun haha

    Loose foot straps

    Following a strapless 5k I decided to try rowing with loose foot straps. I was encouraged to do this as a training technique years ago when i was in a boat crew and I forgot what difference it makes. There's a huge temptation to strap in your feet as tightly as possible, but it's really not necessary. Just looping the straps loosely over the bridge of your feet - literally just enough to stop you flying backwards off your seat - gives you so much flexibility and power if your technique is right. Does anyone regularly train like this, or has anyone else even tried it?

    Workout Music Playlist

    This week as I was ramping up my Week 18 Session 1 workout, I was especially motivated by listening to music by 20th century German composer Paul Hindemith (1895-1963): https://music.amazon.com/albums/B0050FWZQM?ref=dm_sh_61dc-0e53-dmcp-6532-82675&musicTerritory=US&marketplaceId=ATVPDKIKX0DER https://music.amazon.com/albums/B00BQRWWOI?ref=dm_sh_f504-ebd2-dmcp-701e-4699d&musicTerritory=US&marketplaceId=ATVPDKIKX0DER Cheers!
