🏋️‍♀️Science of Diet and Exercise Journal👩‍🎓

The curiosity of a 5 year old mind is amazing. I just spent the last hour answering question about the pictures on my Anatomy flash card set and then she picked out cards to make a rough picture of a whole body.

An example of a question is a picture showing the nerves, she wanted to know what nerves do. I done the best I could using language she could understand with a couple of examples of my touching her skin. she the asked me to close my eyes and breathed across my skin and asked if I could feel it followed by telling my that it was my nerves telling my brain about what she was doing.

2 days of concreting and with only 1/4 of a load to go the bloody wheelbarrow wheel went flat, no tube or valve on the pneumatic tyre, F&^$# we will have to wait till tomorrow to see if we can get the wheel from the old busted wheelbarrow to fit.

Concreting is a very sweaty job in the humidity.
 
Hubby is back at work today after the holidays, we did not get the concrete finished but I will try to get it done today if it doesn't rain.
 

This is my youngest son demonstrating a weighted Spanish squat, it can be done with or without weight, the weighted version is for those with good existing strength. A good exercise that can be used in rehab and to build strength without patellofemoral pain.


It is videos like this that shows how much definition he has lol
 
That is awesome, Tru.
Hope you get the concreting done. That must have been very frustrating to be so close to finishing.

That looks like a tough one for coordination. Pretty awesome though.

It takes a wall sit to a whole new level and offers a great way to hit quads without knee pain for the person doing them and without me needing to load a ton of weights into the car when I head out to coach at somebodies home or local park.

Son looks a whole lot more balanced with the weighted compared to bodyweight but as he has become more confident that he is not going to fall over form improved greatly. He could go a little deeper but his torso position is good and only marginally away from having his shins in a perpendicular position.
 
busy day, got school uniforms and book covering supples, got some concreting done but decided not to do the nice finish after leaving a red belly black to it's resting spot in the sand. Still have to get little miss to martial arts.
 
A red belly black is a venomous snake and it decided to take a nap in the sand I needed to mix in as part of making the concrete.

this is an image I found of this species 1673952220621.png

Although they are not particularly aggressive, I would rather not mess with one if I don't have to.
 
Finally got the finish on concreting I wanted, hubby and son mixed while I poured an smoothed it to the standard I wanted lol, they accused me of being a perfectionist :rotflmao:

and so ends the concreting saga until the next project.

Coaching tomorrow morning then I need to decide on which exercise I want to video next, suggestions are always welcome.
 
urgh, the living room needs a damn good tidy up, I have spent all afternoon covering school books along with printing Pokémon pictures to decorate the books, painting a Pokémon onto a pencil case. I have offcut bit of paper everywhere and still need to cover with plastic as I am not sure the recycled brown paper will be protective enough.
