Cheers guys. SL 2x a week as a weight session to keep things going. Once rugby is over SL 3x a week until preseason cardio kicks in.

Found this. Thought some of you may find it interesting. http://www.endofthreefitness.com/51-health-fitness-rules-for-my-son/

I am hoping I can stick with this. I do most of my MFPing via the app so usually don't dive into the community side of things. Aim for this week is a financial one as well as a nutritional one. Home prepared lunches and stop buying coffee. I have an espresso machine at home AND at work, while I use these daily the odd cafe…

Happy New Year all. I am still here. 32 M Sydney. After getting close to goal and losing around 20kg I fell off the wagon and was absent for about a year. Now I have seen where I have gone wrong and what was holding me back. Not overly concerned about the scales. I lift, I play sport and I like to eat. Getting the right…

What the others said. You will find it hard to get bulky. If you bulk up easily please tell all the guys your secret ;) Stronglifts 5x5, Starting strength, new rules etc etc are all good programs to get you into lifting. Make sure you focus on correct form and proper warm ups (the "SST" app for iPhone works out your warm…

In the ceiling. My wife is the one I need to watch out for, the kids are happy to wait for the surprise.

I love seeing how many female Rugby fans there are in the USA and Canada. A great game. I have twin boy and girl who both play and love it. Pre-season about to start down here in Australia

Weights are awesome. Male or female, it doesn't matter. With any luck those that are staring and just keeping an eye out to see if you need any help/advice.....and that's not because you're female.

Same boat old friend. Eating, attitude, illness blah blah. All bull**** excuses that got me back to here.

I think she means illegal?

Sydney here

Yay for Australia. Feel free to add me:D Sydney NSW

I disagree. How the body handles its own weight is totally different to how it handles a weight it is carrying. While there is danger in all exercises there are more instances of people injuring themselves doing bench press vs push ups despite the pressed weight being less than their body weight. You should always be…

Going to second third and fourth what everyone has been saying. Free-weights FTW. Strongliftd 5x5 is a great place to start. I have lifted for a while but the 5x5 program I was able to go back to the start and focus on the important things. Well worth it.

BodyPump 560 RPM 675 BodyAttack 735 BodyStep 620 BodyBalance 390 (On average per class from the Les Mills site. I would subtract your BMR for the time spent per class when logging)

OK first. Exercise will not knock off the 60 pounds. Nutrition is what you need to focus on. Weight loss is 80% nutrition. Exercise has numerous advantages other than weight loss, don't get me wrong. But if you want to lose weight you need to focus on getting your nutrition right. Is Body Pump right for you? That is up to…

What she said I am a coffee slut. Brewed, espresso, latte. I don't like sugar in coffee..ick. Milk does not agree with me so I got sick of fighting it. Soy is OK but same cals as regular milk. Almond milk, unsweetened is pretty good. If you like a hazlenut latte then the sweetened almond milk does a good job of that.

I used to do crossfit style workouts at home. I like the variety and being able to push myself. I have however always been strict with form. Form>weight>speed. I can see how in a crossfit style workout some people may break this equation to achieve better times etc. I have never been to a box so can't comment on their…

You got it right as you are. Eat food, drink water, exercise. Simple. Don't need to waste money on shakes. Also a saying that pops its head up around here a fair bit. If you want to look good, watch what you eat. If you want to look good naked, watch what you eat and train.

I agree. If you wear a HRM all day in theory you get your BMR...do you add this to your calories? Noooo. Clas burnt in a routine are HRM reading minus (BMR/1440x per minute exercised) Work out your BMR for the day then divide it by 1440 (minutes in a day). That will give you a figure to subtract from your HRM reading per…

Downunder here. I am a union player from when I was under 7 in New Zealand. Love the game and now like to enjoy watching my twin boy and girl play on the weekend. Such a great sport. I am a prop, second row, flanker. It is great to see most of the posters in this forum are dirty pigs. Yep us filthy forwards that do all the…

I am a FF member. They can be turds but I have a really good rate so it is a winner for me. I would complain and say that the programs were a reason you signed up to the more expensive FF rather than a cheaper gym that doesn't offer them. If they won't budge it is time to take it beyond your branch and talk to head office.…

You're doing the hard work with exercise and nutrition. Why not stick with it and give it time?

5? This is way too hard but I will try. 1. Pink Floyd 2. Led Zeppelin 3. The Cure 4. The Beatles 5. Smashing Pumpkins Wow. So many left out, genres not just performers/bands

At the risk of being shot down here....Just eat better, save your money

Regardless of your own weight struggle your children are your responsibility. I find it sad that adults are surprised their kids are eating well when the parent decides to do something about their own diet. What were you feeding your children in the first place? Even as an overweight adult my children had a healthy diet.…

Darts isn't judged. It is competitive. Are you going to sit there and say darts is a sport over gymnastics? If so line up for registration at competitive wanking.
