It looks like pretty good stuff as it's over quickly so you don't get fed up and has plenty of variety. Those burpees take me back, haven't done any since I stopped playing rugby. They were hard then and I doubt the extra years would make them any easier for me. Might annoy the neighbours downstairs if I start chucking a ball at the floor though

You and Stu really need to stop feeling sorry for yourselves and just get on with it. What a pair of whingers. Put it in the box. Im worried that George is going to join you whimps after saturday as well now.
For myself, xmas was Ok. I didnt do a lot of training but just tried to keep things ticking over. As you get older, I think it is essential not to have too long a break. I beleive in the "use it or lose it" theory i.e. if I stop training and lose say 20% of my aerobic fitness, I can only get approx 19.5% back and the 0.5% has gone for good. Therefore two layoffs in a year could cost me 10w at AT.
I therefore never stop training for any more than a week and before have continued to train even with some terrible injuries (im not saying this is a wise thing to do though and wouldnt train with a fever). I have noticed when I start to get a cold, stopping training never seems to stop it developing so always crack on untill I feel too rubbish to continue. Its always hard to start training up again after a cold/flu so as soon as the symptons die down, I will do 10min turbos sessions untill Im feeling a bit better - I think a bit of exercise can help to clear out the airways.
Training is not a problem for me as I enjoy it and have an understanding wife.
