Day 9 done and dusted

Thursday is treadmill day followed by body pump. As I'm in a recovery week and supposed to keep my heart rate low I did just a token warm up on the dreadmill - 11 minutes of run walk covering around 3/4 of a mile. I felt good doing it and my heart rate behaved itself nicely. Then body pump, I increased the weights by 1kg on each track. It was harder work but my heart rate didn't even climb into a working zone for lots of it. I must be actually regaining some fitness. When I started back at body pump around 6 weeks ago, my heart rate would be recordable for most of the session and would climb into zone 3 on the squat track!
