Can anyone recommend a cheapish HRM?

Hmm interesting.. I have always wondered about this too. I am conscious that its best to have high sugared fruit like bananas straight after a workout. I might start worrying about this less now... I do occasionally have breakfast bars which are probably a big no no. I don't have them weekly though..

I say I'm 5ft but I never let anyone check apart from the gym! 51KG and always saying I want to be fit... I never really know if my efforts pay off enough.

I like what you've said... :) I always have my goals in mind, but they are probably too vague. Maybe I should think about realistic goals within a certain time frame.

Thats amazing! How you you manage to lose that so fast?! I am stuck in a wee rut at the moment and am not expecting to lose a huge amount of weight but I think I do need to lose it because I am not physically fit. I love food too much to be worried about any eating problems but I'm having to apply pressure on myself to…

I am going to do a 10K with obstacles (Mens Survival of the Fittest) and a 5K (Spartan)... Every year I say I am going to get fit and so these events are going to be an additional push. Looks can be deceiving in my case, but my photo was a few years ago now and I've not changed a huge amount but I have never been…

Oh this has been useful to read as I am a 'newbie' to running since the days when I was a long distance runner at school. Having a friend run with you is a great idea... I am doing two events to give me more incentive/pressure to get fit called Spartan and Mens Survival of the Fittest. The first one is a 5k with obstacles…

Oh wonderful... Great to meet you all :) I am not from Edinburgh, but I have lived year for 6 years now. I was a student at Napier and I am based near the Pentlands! Anyone signed up for the British Military Fitness at all? Look it up http://www.britmilfit.com/ I am doing it with a friend on the 18th in the Meadows. Feel…

Lol this is amusing thread to come across..

I used to go to an Edinburgh Leisure gym, but I seem to keep going back to Virgin Active, Dundee street a lot better. Its worth every penny.

Oh I see.. Ah I won't be around for Tough Mudder, I will be in Greece with my boyfriend and his family so that will be fun. Well my aim really is to complete the course without any injury as I have never done a marathon before and have always wanted to do these ones. Yeah Spartan is coming up mid September.. Tough Mudder…

When is it? It looks terrifying. I have signed up for spartan and Mens survival of the fittest for now.. I'm not sure I'd physically be able to complete Tough Mudder.. But I am intrigued.

They are great.. Thank you for posting them! At some point I will definitely do them.. Perhaps when the school term is over, the attempt to do it at the moment would not get me anywhere... waking up during the week is a big enough challenge at the moment for me!

I'm 5ft and 117lbs! Really wanting to tone up and get fit! Just started my routine back into the gym and swimming. Doing lots of classes, when I can find time in between my two jobs and diploma. Last year was easier, but I had shorter working day... It always takes me a while to get back into my routine.. My goal is to get…

I like your thinking... and course its true.

No I haven't but I'm intrigued... I am so bad at keeping to a particular diet in general. Just had a tuna, light mayo and sweetcorn panini and am full but not satisfied! I was fairly close to getting a meal that had fries with it instead...

I am 25, new to this and want to get fit and toned! Please add me :)
