| 0:00.0 | Hello and welcome to this Q&A episode of the ESG Fitness Podcast. I'm on my own again. |
| 0:05.6 | Sorry about that. Although I was told off for saying sorry and Emily was like, you're enough on your own. |
| 0:10.7 | I was like, I really needed to hear that today. Thanks. The reason for this is actually that it's a Friday night and I didn't want to subject the coaches to having to record on Friday night. |
| 0:20.6 | Whereas I actually don't mind and |
| 0:23.3 | have no social life and this is the only time I could fit in. But, in fact, not but, and I am very |

| 1:45.8 | as I'm helping my daughter out with her new baby and grandson. I try to sneak my steps in with |
| 1:51.3 | lots of walks and pushing the pram. Is it going to be optimal for training legs with four-killer |
| 1:56.2 | gum dumbbells? No. Is it unbelievably better than doing nothing? A hundred percent yes. And there are |
