Afternoon all,
I'm Rob/Grins, and I started using my fitnesf pal on Monday. Seems to me to be a good system for watching what you eat and training and all that good stuff.
I've been training to some extent for years, about 8 years ago I was probably the fittest I've been, ran a half marathon and was pretty toned, and a little muscular. Since then I've suffered a few injuries which prevented me from running, and hitting thirty has seen the additional battle against the weight as everything I eat seems to try and make me grow outwards!
I'm now in the best shape I've been for a long time, running a fair bit and weight training a fair bit to keep my fitness up, I've kind of hit a wall with the training now which is irritating to say the least. After the initial 'wow look at the difference' I've hit the 'man, surely I should have lost more/gained more/arrrgh!' spot! :-)
Anyhow, Hope everyone's having a great Wednesday so far, and if you ever get bored my blog will be updated with my training cheers and woes pretty regular.
Cheers
Rob/Grins
p.s. Is it possible to bulk up while trying to tone up? <- my major issue so far, which way to go! :-)
