Tá an lá go hainnis.
And so it was, the day was terrible. It's hard to motivate yourself for anything when you look out the window and see that it is well and truly 'weather for ducks'.

None the less, it was off out the door just before 7am for the gym ritual. Todays focus would be on shoulders. Again the workout was light, and it will be for the first and second week. It's always best to ease yourself back into the swing of things. Injury is always lurking around the corner, although I've been lucky injury wise the last while, where's that proverbial wood when you need it?!

A quick burn up on the shoulder region from dumbbell pressing at an easy pace with 20kg's in each hand and then some standing military press's. This was followed by lateral raises and rear shoulder shrugs. The cardio ensued as did the stretching.

I had a bit of space this morning to run over Yoo Sin quickly. It has 68 movements, but even still it is quite an easy pattern to remember, probably down to the easy symmetry of the diagram, or in other words, you do something on the left then you do it on the right. I have all three 3rd degree patterns learned. It's a matter of just perfecting them, if perfection is ever achievable.

In the news is the ICTU march on November 6th. Probably another pointless exercise. Who's in charge of that Congress? Oh yeh, it's the Grand Old Duke of York.

I bet those ducks are happy.
