Ave,
I've started working out a bit. I want to document what effects adding certain things to my routine. Maybe it will be helpful to others.
I traded 2 days of playing for 2 days of gym. So far it has given me better effects than actually playing.
Before that I lost 27 kgs (132 Feb -> 105 Jul), it have had the most impact on my performance so far.

Last 4 weeks. 2 times a week 1hr of bike riding.
In Dusseldorf my legs gave out middle of the day 2. Decided to do something about it.
The effects started showing up after 2 weeks. I stopped feeling exhausted in the legs and I could keep the top spin on FH running 25% longer.
After 4 weeks I can do almost full session without restricting myself.
My FH top spin got a bit more spin.
Now I mostly feel my core getting exhausted.

Today I added:
- shoulder exercise on the machine thingy, 31kg
- wrist extensions, 7.5kg
- wrist flexions, 5kg

I also do the stretching every time. It also progressed a bit.
