chavs - I think I made wee :) I suppose our chavs can't buy bullets in ASDA - lol My local ASDA has a McDonalds in it!

Maybe you're super sensitive to something in your diet? We're complex beings in a 21st century world of food that mostly isn't natural for us. Have a google on "Mark Sissons Primal Blueprint". He talks alot of sense :) Many articles & books have been written on carbs/sugars over the years that have been mostly ignored. The…

I set goals! "A goal is not always meant to be reached, it often serves simply as something to aim at. Bruce Lee"

Hi folks, thanks very much for your input. I know a pro MMA fighter who is carb free and on oily fish, he used to be fit, but now he's astonishing! He seems to be at a different level now, no crashing from carb loading, lower body fat (4%) and the ability to sustain longer! Also, as pointed out, I've noticed if I have…

Revels.......................yessssssssssssssssssssssssssssss :)

I'll be setting up a charity where unwanted panties can be sent. Ping me if you're interested :) I just hope that not too many guys send theirs in as the design can be "limiting" for our ability to run fast!

Am I allowed to comment on this thread? LMAO!

I posted that on facebook this morning! I daren;t ask if anyone is doing it!

Everyone is here is talking sense.... I can only offer my personal experience. I got my abs showing within 6 weeks, I did my own circuits 3-5 times a week which mix up strength & conditioning, I mixed my running up 5-6 days a week too (different sprints, speed work, only 1 LSD run). I take 1 day off from exercise per week…

I do for restaurants and if I'm going to a cold buffet, otherwise peeps think I'm mad or guess I'm doing MFP! I also put things in if I'm going camping, or somewhere without a phone signal! Nothing worse then logging just kcals when I won't to understand the nutritional content!
-
LOL - yes Kara ;) I think we really should petition the NHS to drop BMI as a cheap quick test! It's an instant fail..... I was bought in recently by my NEW GP who'd only met me once for having too much creatinine in my blood. After 6 blood tests and urine tests they told me I had Chronic Kidney Disease as it was a matter…

This is very true. When I was 96kgs and 15% body fat, I renewed my mortgage and they sent a nurse for the life assurance. Turns out I was showing up on their BMI calculator as having an obesity problem. She met me and said, "oh". Then took my blood pressure and gave me the all clear. Amusing and annoying at the same time!

For me, it's about linking the 5 components together. I need:- cardio endurance muscle strength muscle endurance flexibility body composition If I am weak in 1 of these areas, I can become injured. Injury = set back Mine is chaotic circuits (always different combining strength/balance/speed/cardio) with running (distance,…

(and if you fancy a "cheat" beer + bacon sarnie, do it, see how it feels)

Try things. Set out a 6 week target. Reduce your grains (not your natural fruit/veg). If you can pick it eat it, it's great. If it needs to be crushed by a 500kg roller before you can attempt to eat it, maybe we've not adapted as a species to eat it. So stop bread, pasta, rice, beer, couscous etc.... Anything with a grain…

Have a read ;) http://www.webmd.boots.com/fitness-exercise/guide/shin-splints and for running in general... http://www.runnersworld.co.uk/training/ I'm gonna assume you went to a professional running store and had your gait video recorded so they could assess what shoes you need to match your running style (if not, I'm…

2011 Navara + 2007 Porsche Cayman er....extremes?

er....bugger....yup, chubby vain or thin vain, I'm vain :( But my training is first for functional strength so I can be the best I can be and keep challenging myself, it's just a nice side effect to look fitter too :) Now where's the mirror LOL ps I'm over 40 and past it....other peeps may not be, but I collect injuries…
-
If I saw bad form, I may run over to a member of staff and send them over. I probably wouldn't want anyone to talk to me and I wouldn't bother with them. My workouts are about me, not anyone else. If someone came over, I'd probably grunt and then just got on with things! Nowaways I avoid the globo-gym and do my chaotic…

I've been using MFP as a tool but have been discovering it's nice to have friends on here too! I'll be 42 sooner rather then later :laugh:

sleep is important to our well being as is exercise! not sleeping may kill you! not exercising may slowly kill you :) http://www.end-your-sleep-deprivation.com/effects-of-sleep-deprivation.html perhaps you can mix things up a little? can you use some or all of your commute for exercise? I travel for work and sometimes find…

I've had impingement (6m), a staphylococcal infection, a torn meniscus (6m) & a broken rib (6wks). Nothing too long term, but enough to take away my "top" end. You know what you can do, the problem is the spirit is willing but the flesh is weak! Most of the time I attempt to train "around" the problem. The day after my…

Batman! No super powers, just inherited cash and the raw skills learned and practiced within intelligence to become a force the underworld fear! Damn....just need more cash....perhaps I could be Big Daddy instead? If I was a girl, I'd wanna be "Hit Girl", but I couldn't swear like her!

Photography course, pick one up on Groupon you get your monies worth :)

Hi there, everyone will give you there best strategy, your job is to pick 1 you can do! I personally have turned my double garage into a home gym, I exercise in it 3 times a week for 1hr a time, so it's excessive for the use it gets. I implemented a mixture of tabata timing (HIIT) cardio exercises combined with strength…

it's a number so it provides you with a guide! they portions may or may not be that accurate, but you've got the idea! the speedo in your car has some tolerance, so does your body too, my BMR is so ramped at the moment, every time I drop to 80kgs I have to plan a few days to get me back to 82kgs! tune it for you, make it…
