Sadly I am overweight at the moment :( I am 5ft 3 and weigh 10st 9, so I need to really lose a good 20lb to be an ideal weight, but this is purely down to a lack of exercise and a lack of willpower when it comes to the wine on a weekend.

In terms of the routine, this is something I did today because the cycles were all taken when I wanted to use them. I decided to opt for a more intense workout so I did 20…

Hi, I am Colleen from West Yorkshire, UK. I have arranged a charity walk with a group in August doing the 3 Yorkshire Peaks - 26 miles of walking in under 12 hours, ascending over 5000 feet. I was training in May, when I had a few too many glasses of wine one night, fell, and sprained my ankle and did my ligaments. Since…
