time to shed a couple of stone from my current 16

 

i have the will power to do it but itll be easier if im not alone

 

anybody else making the effort and sharing their progress

 

14 stones where i want to be by end of March

got 4 PBs for 5k last year

 

then found an excuse not to run

should add, they were the first and only 5ks ive ever run with a clock on them

Thought I'd mix it up with a bike ride t'other evening...Went arse over tit on black ice - twice.

 

The second time I somehow contrived to fly about four feet in the air feet first and landed slap bang on my lower back/arse.

 

I'm sure concrete/metalled surfaces are harder and more hurtful in the winter...

 

Anyhow, got a bruised and fucked cocy... coxy... cocx...arsebone - walking like John Merrick channelling John Wayne after a pool party at Barrymore's. Three week layoff I reckon.

 

Luckily I'm almost out of Stollen now, having given most away (sorry CWP).

Bad luck - try and get out and do something before three weeks - otherwise you’ll be starting from scratch if you’ve only just started.

Can you not start baking your own with your three week lay off?

need to get in the gym and start doing some leg weights.

Jesus Christ please no. I can't handle daily gym updates as well.

Think it's got to be aged, like Christmas cake.

I'll do some upper body weights, can't stay idle.

Gutted, as I’m only doing it for you. ????

Please tell me in minute detail about your workout and then tell me what protein shake you've had after. Also post a picture of a sweaty towel and then the words 'serious gains'.

So we can expect some knob waving? Good Lord!

Protein shake? I’m not a gym bunny.

 

Water, and no gains for me - I’m now down to 12 stone - should probably start putting some on now!

7 pints in Chester this afternoon ring gonna help.

Just for Kent....

 

2 mornings of hill repeat sprint sessions.

 

Hurt like fuck.

I liked you better when you lied to girls about what music you liked so you could finger them.

There’s only so many times one man can say, “yeah, the New Radicals are a fantastic band.” before he has no soul left.

Treadmill 5k yday. Literally can't walk today. Le ft side is fucked. Can't put weight on it proper. Right side totally fine. Always seems be issued with left side. Shooting pain between hip and above knee

He did what? The filthy white middle aged man.

Might be your tendons, if you’ve not done much before they can become inflamed, plus treadmills aren’t as forgiving as other surfaces with your impact so you can do more damage over distances. Can’t say I’m a big fan.

 

If it is that you’ll need to do some weight work on your legs - nd stretches at home (filling a rucksack with books and doing squats really works for me!) if it’s one side (mine is always the left as well) you probably over pronate and if you are dominant in your right side your left leg isn’t strong enough at the moment.

 

Mind you I’m not a doctor but this happened to me all the time - and I still have to manage it.

Young and horny white man at the time I thank you.

 

And pretending to think that Jim Morrison is ‘a true American poet’ is hardly akin to a bum pitch at the bar.

seems a reasonable analysis. Legs are weak as fuck . Never ever do any weights or strength work. Drainpipe legs carrying a pot belly. Gonna have do as you say though if want carry on running I suppose

I'm no doctor but I'd say your left thigh is fucked.

 

No, don't thank me.

Do weights incrementally like Crawley writes, I'd use fixed machines though rather than weighted squats.

 

Run slower, walk even, but on a much higher incline - you'll utilise more power from your glutes and will limit the shock/stress factor on ligaments and joints one gets running fast(ish) on the flat or low incline...

It might be your hip btw.

 

Get on the chewable calcium.
