Hey dude, aircon!

The summer months are intense but you kinda get acclimatised to it. I try to get out and play golf early mornings and padel in the evenings, when life allows! The rest of the year we have amazing weather, so can't complain too much.

Hey, yeah I need to be onsite while they film. Let's see I am hoping they free up a room or two.

Thanks Aletta, yeah tough match and a very close one. I felt for sure we were heading for extra time and the dreaded penalties! It will be a very challenging match against Spain!

Keep jumping!

Hey dude, also have the garmin watch just upgraded to a better one as my last one got blown off my wrist in a wave!! Anyhow, Garmin do have a jump rope app you can download from there store, which is free. VO2max is primarily your aerobic capacity, the way the watch measures this is through intense and constant aerobic work. Like cycling or running. Jump rope unless you constantly skip for 30 to 45mins (without stopping or doing body weight exercises) it does not give an accurate measure even though we are taxing ourselves.

I am not a fan of running and don't cycle much, however I do play padel tennis, I have found measuring this has helped increase my aerobic measure thus increasing my VO2max score. So I think drop in 1 or 2 sessions of 'other' cardio a week and see how you go.

Hope that helps and happy jumping!
