"No pain no gain"......excercising does not have to hurt to be good for you "the faster you go the better it is"......wrong its not a race to be first across the line go at your own pace, its more about technique than speed the best i heard was "my instructor told me not to have resistance on the treadmill as its not a…

I go to the gym in the afternoon most days As I'm and older gym junkie nowadays I have had a similar problem if I exercise to close to having had a meal I discussed this at length with my nutritionist/trainer who explained the following for me...... My metabolism does not run at the same pace as when i was a young man…

a couple of things 1 are you using the hrm and seeing the figures on the gym machines - mine is always wrong - my wrist says 130 and the machine says 157, its not always accurate on the machines 2 is the battery old or new - old ones send wierd signals 3 the variance you are talking about is not massive its 5 so I would…

Drink water only for 3 days reduce the fatty foods reduce the caffeine foods eat high fibre cereals why waste your money on faddy products I don't mind admitting I used to have a wind(gas) problem (its gone now ) Since I dropped the caffeine intake, had a fibre cereal for breakfast and generally changed my ways my body…

Hi I have a rehab trainer who encourages me to have one bad day per week He says its good for several reasons the main ones being :- It confuses your body, that may be going into starvation mode Its nice to have a treat food day and break the 'rules' If you overeat/eat like before it reminds you just how much you used to…

Welcome there is a means to display weight watchers points in your food diary if this helps - its a change of settings which you can do for yourself I use it to keep an eye on things and am having a bigger success here The interesting thing for me is that I am winning by using fare less points than WW would say and I feel…

Wannabe nobodies who jump on the machine next to you and go like a bat out of hell for all of 5 minutes Usually these wannabes have no incline resistance on......and then they get excited about how far they ran Rant over, their mothers must love them !

Unless you have an allergy to a chemical then I tend to ignore the individual items at the moment as my goal is to lose weight I am aiming to eat my calories I have seen a dietician and she explained that this information is usefull to her however I should not obsess on sugars, salts etc, She uses that information when…

My rehab trainer tells me to drink coffee, a short black one before gym time as it gets the heart rate up, this helps increase your metabolism and hence burns more fuel does it make me hungry - yes when i go past 4 cups in a day I tend to use the coffee pod system as it gives a measured black espresso and I usually have…

How about walking 30mins per day at a brisk pace then when you can handle that try the c25k app to learn to run i am using a gym and learning to run again, at age 50..... its hard but im now run walking comfortably for 25mins, its taken me a while there are loads of sites to give ideas on the net .....try these for…

Ok I have several pet hates on the treadmill.... 1 the guy or girl next to you decides to compete only they are 30 years younger and weigh about 100lbs less than i do 2 in competing they have zero incline on their machine whilst im pushing along at anything up to 10% incline 3 they want to chat to you.....while the sweat…

I have a similar problem the solutions that seem to have worked for me are as follows:- 1. buy a really good pair of shoes for excercise, i went to a sports shop and in my case i selected a pair of Mizuno runners shoes ( even though at the time i could not run, this is my ultimate goal to return to running 10k at a time, i…

So . . . I am a few days in and I have adjusted up and now take 4 teaspoons with my yoghurt and fruit, and whilst I don't feel full for longer I have to say I am not as hungry, although when hunger hits it hits hard. In the last few days I have to say I am feeling sharper and clearer in my general outlook....could this be…

I drink coffee every day I take a short black before the gym, trainers orders i love coffee and it loves me

I go to the gym every day and use the cardio machines so I weigh myself and take advantage of the guidance the machines can offer I enter my wieght, age and time as part of my programme and then the machine warns me if I push my heart too hard so its worth it It also tells me to keep going my gyms scales are in kg and have…

I have my diary open to friends so feel free to add me my baseline is 1200 calories per day i excercise vigorously 6 days a week and eat back most of my excercise, some days I forget to log all my food, however for me its has finally clicked together and I am makiing some good solid progress I am happy to add as a friend…
