gonzo Posted January 8 Author Posted January 8 You can smash through calories walking on elevation on a fancy running machine too. I often do that if my dodgy ankles dont fancy it. Gets bit boring like but helps if there's a scantily clad intstagram type lass on the stepper in front. Quote

I've managed to shed nearly half a stone. Spending most of my time on a spin bike, which can be a bit brutal. I've also found a new love for twatting around with boxing gloves and a punch bag. A quick half hour on a punchbag with some drills (taken from TikTok) is a proper cardio workout Quote
Dr Faustus Posted January 17 Posted January 17 i sprained my knee ligaments (according Royal Bolton) 2 month ago- i've put 8lbs on; i know i can shift especially as i am moving more now- just a bastard when you've lost most of it once still not right, aches like hell but i can move it Quote

Planning on getting back on the heavy bag tomorrow after somehow losing my gloves midway through last year Quote
gonzo Posted January 18 Author Posted January 18 I'm the heaviest I've been in years. Eating shite, drinking every weekend to excess. Barely been to the gym since November. Amazing how you can fall off a cliff. Quote
Leyther_Matt Posted January 18 Posted January 18 8.6 pounds gone in just short of a fortnight. 1,500 calories a day and no booze. Same again this week then a day off for Huddersfield away. Tend to find having a calorie controlled fry up and roast on the Sunday gets me right back on track instead of hankering for a takeaway. A long way to go, but it’s a start. First goal is to lose the 20 pounds I’d put on since the start of the football season. Quote
Smiley Posted January 20 Posted January 20 (edited) Other options for training at home - get a rebounder / mini trampoline. Don’t buy cheap (I’ve done that already). On my 2nd one now, much more sturdy. Great for mimicking runs in the house whilst watching TV, footie, etc. Usually grab a couple of 2kg or 3kg hand weights to give me some extra resistance, which works my upper body a bit more. I fucked up my knee dicking about on a sledge in Lapland early December. Carried on running on it. Not got any better. Saw my physio 7 days ago who’s insisted I rest for minimum 2 weeks from running. I’ve carried on using my assault bike and spin bike + the rebounder. Still don’t think my knee is going to heal though, so might need to take a full week off, which would be a real pisser. On the diet side, had 2-3 weeks over Xmas and NY drinking and eating shite. But dropped straight back into fasting and keto first week of Jan. Also bought noodles, rice and pasta from Bulk. All carb and (virtually) calorie free. Made from glucomannan. Edited January 20 by Smiley Quote

Otherwise you'll have some Halliwell scrubber calling you a fat cunt 😉 ❤️ Quote
