Social prescribing now going on. Amongst other activities, football/walking football being used. Not just for better fitness/weight loss but also mental health. Quite funny seeing little clips of overweight blokes trying not to run. Good idea for me, I would assume it becomes a bit more technical as you can't just drop a shoulder and sprint away from an opponent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the social side is what it’s all about definitely helps with mental health and keeping active even if walking going to help fitness, think Biff lost a stone or 2 since taking it up. When I get more time would love to try it out. Edited January 31, 2019 by Mounts Kipper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I get more time would love to try it out. Might consider it myself. Bit of a warning the other week; I had a chest x-ray to check a chest infection- but came back showing the appearance of "fat pad" around the heart. GP said nowt serious, but need to shift some weight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't be silly now. When we attack down here, what do you think the warheads of the first volley out of our trebuchet are? Closely followed by a head on charge with our St. Georges flag beach towels proudly flying like Rome's SPQR banners. Know suspender.

Members bolty58 Posted February 1, 2019 Author Members Share Posted February 1, 2019 To those considering giving it a try I would encourage you. Social/laugh/camaraderie - all those things but don't think it's a doddle. Pissed wet through with sweat after my first ever game of it and even now after multiple games it is still a workout. When you love the game like we all do, you don't really realise that you are exercising once you get absorbed in it. Before the 'well a fat unfit cunt would sweat his bollocks of' jibes come out, I'll have you know that I power walk for an hour each day and am reasonably fit.

Those were the days! - sadly it would mean a yellow/red card these days. I Would consider doing walking football, i played in the Over 35's (full pelt) league for 10 years and loved it. You know you''re getting old when you have to retire from vets football Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where you playing outside in Perth in 35 degrees P ? Maybe playing outside at Leverhulme Park in Feb would help with the sweat problem.

Dr Faustus Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 I need to get back into playing; not 40 yet, but a beer gut and glass back stops me from doing anything too fast for too long- is it acceptable for us types to join? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
