Ill too

Think I am getting sick as well as being injured now! My wife and son have been sick all week and I think that I am slowly coming down with it too.

I woke up at 11am this morning and only woke up then because my son was off school and feeling better so he woke me up.

Because my son was home and he was ill I didn't want to take him too far from home so I didn't pick up my bike from Crucial.

We did head out a bit later and went shopping and too a quick look at the track which still isn't rideable as the weather was too wet to finish the last straight this week.

On a more positive note my knee is feeling much better although it is still swollen and a bit sore still.

I have decided that I am going to take this week off and then start at the gym next week first thing on Monday morning (5am). 

Gym wise I am planning to do Upper Body Weights on Monday and Thursday's And for the time being I am going to do light aerobic exercises (mainly exercise bike and recumbant bike for the next couple of weeks) on Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday's until my knee is better. Once my Knee is better I plan to do Upper Body on Monday and Thursdays, Lower Body on Tuesday and Fridays and Aerobic on Wednesdays. 

I am going to hold off on doing too much BMX Sprint training until the new year once I have done a month or so of Weight training to strengthen my knee back up. 

I plan to start doing Manual training as soon as my knee is able to straighten properly (hopefully in a week or so).

My main priority at the moment is getting the knee healthy followed by dropping weight followed by improving my manuals followed by getting into race shape for next season.
