DOMS question and advice on progressing
I've just started a training program with a PT,and she's great. Did lower body on Wednesday, upper body pull on Saturday. Both programs I was pushing myself (and she was pushing me) but nothing I felt beyond my capability. But holy mother of Jod, the DOMS. They're killing me. The legs DOMS are still lingering today, being…

Try as I might - I am NOT a morning exercise person
And I'm not talking a mental thing! I have tried over the years to engage with morning workouts of varying intensity and I have come to the conclusion that my body just *can't*.

First lockdown, I was doing OK, walking, eating well... but by…

I am a failure
Someone made a suggestion in the Feedback area that we should have a failures section, a counterpoint to the success stories section. I volunteered as tribute, and so here it is. There it is. I said it. I'm the opposite of a Success Story. I am a failure. I have been obese, on and off, for 25 years. I have gained lots,…

Nokia (or Withings) Steel HR
I'm after a new fitness tracker (currently have a Fitbit Charge HR but I'm not loving the look of it anymore) and I really like the look of the new Nokia Steel HR. I'm struggling to find information about when it is available in Australia and it looks like it suffered delays world-wide. The reviews seem to rate it pretty…
