  • Agree 208 and 10% don't match unless your a mega weightlifter
  • Alcohol and ketosis do not go together. To be in ketosis you must make fantastic decisions about food choices, the foods will most likely be fresh, natural, very little processing and therefore lower in toxins. Why ? Why on earth ? Would you POISON yourself with alcohol? Adds toxins, affects digestion, affects muscles,…
  • 1. If your hungry eat 2. Stop depriving yourself 3. Stop putting off snack time How ? 1. Increase protein in all your meals & snacks 2. Reduce your carbs in every meal & snack 3. Stop eating the high sugar processed rubbish stuff. You can buy high protein milk shakes & chocolate bars to help you out in the early days.
  • I read posts but don't post myself, thought I would today because I for one am feeling a little nervous I'm not quite on target, I've got up this morning saying to myself "come on dig in 3 months to go" I hadn't realized until today that this challenge has helped me.
  • Ketosis and alcohol do not mix put ketosis on hold until you can overcome your addiction.

  • Do as much stretching as possible throughout the day, when possible try and make some of them into Pilates or yoga moves, you'll become more flexible than the people around you, how impressive would it be to do the splits at 60 or tuck your feet behind your head ? We could all do this at 10 but less than 1% will be able…
  • Hey Jim awesome result .2 off onederland, you'll easily do it this week, don't beat yourself up over the mindless eating, think of it in a positive way 1. You realize your doing it 2. Your trying to figure it out 3. Last week 12 rice cakes this week a lot less so that's an achievement 4. Your still losing weight Jim your…
  • Your friend is no friend at all, if she has run several marathons at 420-430 pace she knows too well that 1. You will not keep up 2. You are very likely not to finish, this may kill your motivation for the future 3. You will injure yourself There's a real chance you will do real damage, over training causes injuries, doing…
  • Hey Jim maybe try mixing things up a bit, I did a couple of weeks where I exercised for 30 minutes before breakfast, at the moment I'm doing fruit only breakfasts, not sure but I think it keeps the body guessing. I'd hit a plateau for about 4 weeks but this last few weeks have been good. Keep up the good work it'll all pay…
  • I walk between 10-20,000 steps per day, plus I do lots of gardening so I won't count either. 1 august =0 2 august = 75 mins run 3 august = 45 min swim 4 august = 90 min run 5 august =0 6 august = 135 min bike + 60 min swim 7 august = 75 min run 8 august = 60 min yogalates 9 august = 60 min swim + 60 yogalates 10 august =…
  • This is something that affects one person, I have always drank 60-80oz in the winter and 80-100 in the summer months. I have 20/20 vision Doc has never asked me to alter

  • I've always worked on 300 miles, my trainers still look brand new and there is no sign of wear at all
  • I have a wattbike though I've never took notice of the calories on that
  • Oops hadn't thought about starting a thread just thought I'd add some sense back into the other thread. Anyways, I used to drink and snack a little due to the alcohol but I've given up alcohol so I now have a serious defecit. I am losing weight though nothing major, if I log foods I lose more, therefore when I'm not…
  • @ninerbuff I'm interested to have feed back regarding exercise calories. Yesterday I group cycled for 90 mins+ = 1143 cals and did a masters swim set at approx 750 cals (I'm a fast swimmer). 1. I don't believe these calorie burns are accurate, are they? 2. So yesterday I ate about 300 of my exercise calories, that's about…
  • It's in cardio as "les mills body pump"
  • Thanks guys, 2018 is an anniversary year so it's getting an extra 2 miles, I've done marathons, I'm returning to running after 8 years of long distance triathlon. & so loving the running now, it was so hard when trying to combine it with 250 miles a week on a bike, the legs refused to run properly.
  • It's only 34 miles but apparently one of the uk's hardest due to the hills, have a look it's called dartmoor discovery. For most people it seems to be 2 1/2 to 3 hours longer than their marathon pace, and there's a 7 hour cut off.
  • Yep, I'm 210-217lbs for the past 5 years, I've ran on and off all my life, always been overweight, I run 15 miles long run, a tempo 7 miler, a 5-6 mile interval session and a 5k park run each week, My best times recently =1 mile 7.30, 5k 26 mins, marathon 4.21 Effects on my body = very little weight loss, I drink and eat…

  • If you intend to keep upping your mileage walking on your off days is a good recovery, cross training like other folk have said a little strength training and agree stick to 10% increases, just think by Christmas you would be up to 40 miles for a long run and 80 miles a week sticking to the 10% rule. 100 miles a week is…
  • 2009 Occasionally ask a question Rarely post on anyone else's thread
  • Every calculator on the internet has my 5k run at over 400 calories, please do educate us all where are we going wrong ? I'm a 50 year old male weighing 217lbs I run a 5k in 25-27 minutes depends on the amount of hills.
  • I know my running days are awkward, I haven't the time to long run Saturday so it has to be Sunday, mondays club run, I have a choice of groups 8.30's I struggle a bit, 9's I'm ok with, or I can even go with a 9.30 or 10 min miling groups if I need too. Tuesday is a proper recovery at 10-10.30mm I'd never thought about the…
  • The Monday Club run is currently a social run usually 6 miles at 8.30's to 9mm I could easily add a few miles to this and drop the pace to 9's or 9.30's but is this ok after the Sunday long run ?
