Suppose its potentially a quick way to lose weight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SnoopJohnnyJohn Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 Urgh. I need to start this. I'm currently 17st 7lb, and that's just too much. Any cardio tips for someone with horrifically bad knees? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Low impact stuff. Swimming would be perfect. Failing that nice and steady on a cross trainer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnoopJohnnyJohn Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 (edited) Low impact stuff. Swimming would be perfect. Failing that nice and steady on a cross trainer. Might have to be the cross trainer then, I swim like a brick... Thanks Normally at the gym I just lift, but that tends to make me heavier.

Moderators Casino Posted March 7, 2017 Author Moderators Share Posted March 7, 2017 Good effort. What's the target Cassie? 14 stone by the end of this month, was the target at new year (30lb loss) thought that would be easy, now i think ill get there last week of march if i get to 13, im definitely in aids victim territory 13 7 will give me a bit of room for blow outs, so prob that by end of may hate running, but thank your bro for me, for his encouragement last saturday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not in Crawley Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 Had a lovely 7k run this morning when back home - round moss bank and then up smithills dean, now I'm doing it more often my knees aren't playing up - just been building up to it and now starting to really enjoy it. Want to get to 13 stone in the next month or so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Site Supporter Tonge moor green jacket Posted March 7, 2017 Site Supporter Share Posted March 7, 2017 Do you never fancy joining the Lycra brigade and doing a bit of off road stuff- some great tracks around moses gate and Phillips park in particular. A bit less impact and more interesting. Do get shitted up though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

QFPants Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 I'm doing the Wigan half marathon next Sunday; that goes through Haigh Hall so presumably that will be a test for the legs too? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

no balls Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 Is that not dangerous- big fluctuations in blood sugar levels etc? it's supposed to emulate when we were hunter/gatherer types. The 5:2 is a pretty successful version of this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye; just thinking about what the mother in law tells me when she was a teacher up daubhill. Kids on Ramadan flaking out.
