Lift, Train, Fitness
- Thread starter Trusylver
- Start date
I have spent today doing stuff for uni, this morning little miss helped me build a frame for my photography studio backdrop in the gym and tonight I finished my draft blank template for writing training programs this semester in excel it looks a lot different to my normal template but the style of programs is a lot different. I still want to ad drop down box selection for exercises to speed up the process.
Started the day with some T-Spine mobility exercises, when little miss wakes up I will get some training in, I want to try a couple of different exercise combos learning how to program correctives in between major exercises so there is no sitting and resting. The heavy strength work for powerlifting usually requires long rests between sets. so I need to reconcile the need for long recovery rests with the new methods of no rests that I need to master for programming for Uni. I think if I can do that I will be a much better coach.
I think a fear of spiders must be an inborn trait. I had to go shopping earlier and while stopped at the bypass roadworks a beautiful wolf spider ran across the outside of my windscreen, however when we got to the shops while I was parking, little miss sounded like she was having a panic attack in the back seat. When I opened the door the beautiful spider was sitting on her arm rest and she would not get out of the car until I got rid of it, I don't like killing spiders but I had nothing to safely move it and little miss was not happy until I swatted it out of the car. Nobody else in the family has a fear of spider and she has never been bitten of had fear demonstrated as an appropriate response the the little critter. I have been bitten by a redback when I was a teen but still like spiders.
Little miss likes shopping for veg, naming everything and wanting all the bright colours.

That's so cute
I know frear of snakes seems to be an inborn trait so it's not far-fetched to think fear of spiders might be, too.
There is a good reason I was terrified taking 2/3 boys for learner driving practice, and why I am terrified taking hubby out for driving practice in my car (he is trying to upgrade is licence from automatic to manual).
Both boys with licences have never had an accident here but my eldest had his car wiped out in Canberra by a drunk driver in a stolen car running a red light.
2 men in the ute that T-boned the bus are critical and may not make it, 8 kids with minor injuries, bus driver has leg injuries from taking evasive action and driving into an embankment saving lives.
Our road will likely become more busy when the bypass is finished because it leads to rainbow beach where the Hemsworth boys hang out away from the crowds in Noosa where they live.

the journalist obviously has no idea where this actually is (we are NOT south of Noosa) but the reporting could have been worse. It is one of the intersections where I took little miss to a party and her childcare is on one of those roads.

one person has died from the crash and one other id still fighting for life.
Today I have spent time photographing the Mary River and the rock hopping to photograph some rock pools on Mothar Mountain. Tomorrow before dawn I need to revisit the locations to get photos with contrasting lighting conditions, so rock hopping in the dark will be fun lol. I wanted to get Sunset pics but hubby has prior commitments at that time and can't watch little miss so sunrise pics will have to do.
I will share the pics after they have been submitted for Uni.

I will hit the gym tonight when it cools down, but on the menu for this session is Movement Prep, Bench (Power), landmine press, DB Bench, Lat Pull downs, Face Pulls. With mobility/stability exercises between sets instead of rest, should take around 45 minutes.
While I was at the rockpools this morning, I also checked to start point of a trail I have not done before, it is short (4k) but is a steep climb and rated as needing a high fitness level, so want to have a go at it this weekend, the views are supposed to be spectacular. I will also need to add duct tape to my first aid kit for it due to the likelihood of Gympie gympie a potentially deadly sting tree. The "Suicide Plant" Has the Most Painful Stingers in the World

Ok with a bit of risk assessment the sunrise shots at the rock pools did not happen.
My daytime risks
Isolated, no phone reception, unsure footing on dry rocks embedded in flowing mountain creek
Dawn risks
Isolated, no phone reception, unsure footing on wet rocks (raining) in a creek in the dark.
I used my mid day and dawn shots of the Mary river for Uni so will post the rock pool photo in the walking thread.
