Yesterday, half-kilometer swim. Would have been more but we were delayed getting in due to lost keys (not mine).

This morning, 3km row.

No swim yesterday due to (entirely unrelated) door problems on site.

This morning, a new PB for the 1km on the elliptical.

This evening:

Flyes and curls, 12x5.

Deadlifts, 60x5, 100x3, 130x3, 150; EMOM 60kg 7-11-1 (100 reps).

Very happy with today.

Thanks, Chris. The deadlifts are feeling really good. Being fitter is feeling good too!

No training this weekend. Spent an hour in this this morning, though.

I do like these things.

This morning:

Elliptical 1km@8.
Soft tissue, stretching.

This evening:

Bench to 120x10.
Deadlift EMOM 60kg 1-11-1. This was hot and hard, and not in a good way. Glad I did it, though.

how would you say the floatation tanks differ from a really nice snooze in a very comfy chair ? possibly after a nice cup of coffee and a bit of a read.


I would deffo have a go in one , but I would also like a really nice snooze in a comfy chair.

I'm struggling to describe it. Not at all snoozy, for me.

Sorry, Jonny. You deserve a better answer than that, but I was knackered and on my phone, Not a good enough excuse, though.

I find that it soothes away a lot of little aches and pains, presumably because you're so completely supported. I have no inclination to go to sleep, for some reason, but the dark and quiet are very soothing and your breath is very loud in your ears wihen there's nothing else happening. I really like the complete lack of temptation to do anything, even something so small as looking at my phone.

I find I come out feeling utterly relaxed but alert, which is rather lovely.

It's not easy to say what it's like, though, because it's really not like anything else I know.

It's not a miraculous effect, but it's enough that I've signed up for a minimum-three-months four-times-a-month contract to continue to figure out what if anything it's doing for me.
