Ordered a new type of coffee & it arrived slightly damaged. Informed them & got a replacement in the same week.

Two packets for the price of one.

Quality :grin:

Try doing some legged calf lowers with a rucksack for weight on your back.

Stand on steps etc and raise up with two feet but only lower on one. repeat for 20 reps then switch legs. Do 3 sets everyday. Once you get comfortable slowly add weight at a 3-5 lbs per week.
