  • Foe me it is basically health. I am in the position now that constant and hard exercise in teh past has caused me permanent injuries that are now just getting worse because of my weight. I want to move easily again and not have to worry about my health so much. I also have a wonderful GF who has no children yet and is…
  • Please be aware that caffeine can cause heart arrithmyas. Even in very fit healthy people. And yes it is a relatively low dose but unless it is a delayed release capsule that entire dose of caffeine will be hitting your system at once. Not spaced out over the time it takes to drink a couple of coffees. I guess what I am…
  • At the moment the only real use I would have for an HRM or fitness tracker would be to ensure I am putting ENOUGH effort in to keep my HR where I want it. Probably don't need that too much as if I can finish the routine without colapsing at the end I will be happy. Not tired enough then more effort next time. Thanks for…
  • I'll check P90 out. many thanks
  • many thanks for the reply. I agree with you re. the info from machines as well. Too many variables in my opinion. Once I start the T25 I will adjust other training accordingly to work around that. Once my weight reduces I will be able to increase walking as impact on my joints decreases so it may be worthwhile then. Really…
  • No idea about the ticker but if you click on the TIME of the last post it will take you there. At lkeast it just did for me to your post. :)
  • I did it the other way around. I gave up smoking first. Best way I found to quit smoking was through vaping (a more advanced form of electronic cigarette). Yes it keeps the nicotine coming but it gets rid of all the other 4000 or so chemicals. My health has improved dramatically and I gained no further weight since I…
  • I have a similar thing with my girlfriend having a bit of "Fun" with my weight. And I really don't like it very much. Thing is for me though, I live in Thailand and she is a Thai national. There is a different culture over here and to be honest if someone my age is overweight it tends to be seen as a sign of wealth. You…
  • I'll have to look in to turbo fire. I haven't heard of that one. T25 is the one I have been leaning to because of the shorter duration as well. Seems a bit more suitable to my situation for the moment. P90X requires extra equipment, I believe and my available space for that sort of thing is limited to say the least. Also…
  • Main problems are knees (basically no cartilage anymore). I have been able to work around this in the past by modifying the exercise. Medial and lateral elbow tendons ( sort of RSI/bursa damage I suppose from repetitive exercise and contact exercise. Mild rotatorf cuff injury that won't clear up and lower back, mainly from…
  • Basically for now I am looking to get a general overall workout program to aid in basic fitness, toning and weight loss. So cardio, and flexibility together. Resistance and endurance training will come in later on once I have my body working more efficiently and have had some weight loss and muscle toning to counter…
  • Hadn't thought of checking reviews on Amazon etc. as I don't buy there. Thanks for the idea. I'll get on it.
  • Would be great to add a few people on here, particularly from Thailand, English/Aussie expat living here.
  • Thanks for that. Seems like a good reason to keep you coming on here. :)
  • New on here today so sorry for a daft question, maybe. But can you log on at any time during the day or is it after you hit that you have completed the days intake etc. that counts?
