Fitness Test 2 (Week 4)

This week I joined an indoor netball team with some girls from my 12wbt Newcastle Group. A little nerve racking at first! When I was like 10 years old I played for 2 years (probably the peak of my fitness as the first year I was Centre and we came runners up - the following year I slumped a bit and was stuck in defence as I couldn't keep up being centre anymore). Then the next time I played was maybe 12 years ago with some friends from highschool.

This time, I ended up as a shooter, which was cool. We lost by 1 point but it was definitely fun.
However regardless of the exercise I have been doing I managed to cork my right thigh smack in the centre and my left glute was a little sore but bearable. The drive home was UNBEARABLE for my thigh though, got home iced it, rolled it out with a can of vege and put some arnica based rub on it. Happily enough, I was able to do squats and step ups etc on it the next day, though still sore to touch.



So yesterday I completed my fitness testing and measurements and am SOOOO happy with my results.
Courtesy of the 12wbt page, here are my fitness test results.

Also need to include
Start Week: 45sec plank on knees
Week 4: 2:21min plank on knees

I am soo please especially with my time trial, wall sit and plank.

But I still feel so weak in the arms :\ Hopefully they'll get stronger!




Below is my total measurement changes for week 4 (courtesy of 12wbt page). 19.5cm in total goneski!

I have finally bought a new pair of work slacks (only one!) as my previous ones were at the stage of just sitting on my hips - would be a bit embarrassing to lose them at the office! Hopefully in a few more weeks time I can move down another size. Won't hold my breath though as it feels like nothing is going from my stomach (ok it does say I have lost 5cm in my waist .. but still.. maybe I'm just unhappy with the wrinkly yucky stretched marked skin there)
