May look like a scene from Casualty but I had a great day yesterday at St John’s Ambulance, doing my Emergency First Aid at Work course 😃

I’m always a fan of an exercise that works more than one area of the body and this is a good one 💪🏻.

The Zercher Squat - you may never have heard of it or tried it before, but it’s a good one to mix up your training. It’s a great exercise for…

Improving strength in the back, core, legs and glutes. It also helps you to maintain an upright position, achieve a deeper squat and by your elbows coming down between your knee it will improve your knee and hip mechanics.

How do you do it;
- Stand with your feet slightly wider apart than you normally would for a squat.
- Hold the weight in the crease of your elbow, hug the bar as close to the body as possible.
- Keep your shoulders pulled back in good posture (don’t hold hands as this will round your shoulders inwards).
- Squat down, keeping your torso straight and let your elbows travel between the knees as you lower.
- Drive back up to your starting position.

It can feel uncomfortable in the crease of your elbows, if so, you can wear a long sleeve top, wear elbow protectors, put padding on the bar or just suck it up and get on with it 😉

Mark, I have an idea 💡 let’s do a 2 day mountain biking route around the Gower, but let’s do it in 1 day!

Me, 🤔 hmmm that sounds ridiculous! OK, let’s go!!

So after….

46 miles.
4,800ft of climbing.
Heat ☀️☀️☀️
Lifting bike over stiles.
Paths full of boulders and potholes.
Many many climbs and descents.
A ridiculously steep climb.
Crashes (by me) 🤕
Biking in sand and the sea.
Tiny overgrown paths full of stinging nettles 😖
A vegan magnum ice cream 🌱😋
2 x beers 🍻

I was completely broken!

But a day of mountain biking in a new place with good company, in the outdoors, exercising, great weather, amazing views and scenery, lots of laughs and memories = an amazing day!! 💪🏻😊
