Thanks for the reassurance- I’ve never worried about the time of day that I eat :) Awesome weight loss! Bravo!!

Thanks for the info- yes, the problem occurs when I get home when really it’s bedtime. Two nights a week I drive an hour (sometimes a bit less but usually the traffic is so bad here that’s become standard) to my BWL club and my coach arrives at 18:30, sometimes later. So we start about 19:00. There’s usually about two and…

Yes I think I need to do more of that, definitely! Thank you

Can I be in your club?!? I just love mechanics

Sufferer of severe SAD here in the North of England, UK. This is the first autumn I’ve started using lamps and taking Vit D (Solgar, 50mg) consistently. Previously, I’d get too far along before I’d realise and then I’d find it hard to do anything at all. I realise I need to get outside more, even when it’s grey. My sport…

Problem is, I have a coach and a club, and we can only meet to train in the evenings. That’s just twice a week, though, so at least on other days I can train earlier.

I just made this and you could replace the protein powders with whatever you have: - 300ml cold pre-made filter coffee (left over from breakfast!) - 15g soy protein isolate powder - 18g Vivo raw plant protein powder in Madagascan vanilla - 8g cocoa powder (add more if you want it stronger - raw cacao powder is better…

So perhaps a cheap set of digital...

Yeah that’s what I’m thinking. I reckon I’ll just get a cheap mechanical one!

Hey! I’ve just added you. Definitely up for returning the favour and helping each other get on it in the mornings! I need to start a new habit :) Brilliant you’re also in the UK.

Thank you everyone!

YES

Have you found anyone? What’s your training like? I want to get motivated to do some additional mobility and technical work first thing every morning. At the moment I train about four times a week in Olympic weightlifting but need to get more serious about my daily morning sessions. Where are you? Alexandra

Thank you everyone!

Sounds lovely! Would you be able to share the recipe, please? :)

Good man! Hello from Huddersfield!

Sad, a bit sick, and tired- in bed- and wondering if it's possible to estimate someone's body fat % visually.. I'm bored of inaccuracy / random variations experienced with the Tanita body composition scales and online calliper calculators.

I'm an Olympic lifter who loves powerlifters!

Wow you're awesome. I'm in Huddersfield (from Oxfordshire originally). You can do it. Consistency is key. Go girl!

I empathise with the frustration over BF measurements accuracy. With a competition bodyweight category of 69kg that I need to make the most of (obviously), I'm trying to trade fat for muscle and monitor as I go. I'm 69-70kg right now and have done several Tanita scales body comp tests since Jan, which have shown bizarre…

How do you know a northern cow from a southern cow? Northern cows like their 'Uddersfield.

I love it too! I'm an Olympic Weightlifter and thrive on the combined strength-technique challenge. Always looking for more serious lifters in my life! I'm in the UK :)

I'm in Huddersfield- from Oxfordshire originally. If anyone's into Olympic weightlifting, the Northern Seniors is at Mytholmroyd Community Centre on 20th May! My home club

I am a highly motivated and dedicated Olympic weightlifter in the UK- feel free to add me :)

How did you tear it?

Any Olympic weightlifters on here?

Huddersfield!

Competing Olympic weightlifter in West Yorkshire- always pleased to add more Brits to my fitness community. Highly motivated and dedicated to the training, and logging food daily. Hope you're all progressing happily and healthily. Alexandra
