Mulberry harbour walk 🚢⚓️

I had the pleasure of meeting a lovely bunch of people today on our walk out to the Mulberry harbour, creating new memories for many people..

Thank you for those who took time out of their day to join me

What is it?
The History: It is a surviving section of a portable temporary harbour built for the 1944 D-Day Normandy landings.

The Story: This specific unit (a C1-type caisson built in Yorkshire) sprang a leak and was grounded in the Thames Estuary while being towed toward France, where it has remained ever since.

Scale: It is a hollow, reinforced concrete structure measuring over 200 feet long.

Tuesday night bootcamp session
And the sun made an appearance after being a miserable day 🌈☀️

Big thank you to those who made the session 👏👏

Yesterday’s session was resistance band workout in pairs
It looked easier than it was
3 minute exercises 4 reps before changing over 💪👊

How They Work

Progressive tension: The band gets tighter and harder to stretch as you move, which challenges your muscles throughout the whole movement.

Constant tension: Unlike free weights that lose resistance at certain angles, bands keep muscles engaged during both the lifting and lowering phases.

Versatility: You can use them at any angle to target stabilizer muscles and joints that standard weights miss.

Resistance band training builds muscle strength and joint stability

Joint-Friendly: They place less stress on your joints, making them ideal for recovery and physical therapy.

Resistance bands provide safe, scalable, and effective strength training that easily adapts to any fitness level from beginner to advanced athlete.

Resistance bands help recover from injuries safely by offering joint-friendly tension and progressive resistance that protects healing tissues

🏖️ BEACH SESSION

Sunday’s session is on the Beach 🏖️

There’s something pretty special about training by the sea 🌊 and we’re so lucky to have it on our doorstep

Training on the beach offers a high-intensity, low-impact workout that burns significantly more energy than exercising on hard surfaces.

And what a brilliant way to start the day!

If you’re thinking shall I give this a go then just
DO IT👊

It’s just 1hr and costs just £5

The weather is looking great for Sunday ☀️
