Been pretty good with the gym and running the last few months. Hoping to have a bit of a health kick from Monday and kick on a bit. 

Got a Garmin vivoactive 3 for xmas which seems pretty good so far, makes it a lot easier to try and keep on top of calories in/out.

Have to say that this iWatch that Mrs Manc got me for Xmas is quite good

Entered some goals into it and the fucking nazi on my wrist mithers me all day long if I’ve been sat down for too long or not walked about enough.

Its worse than she is. Just waiting for it to tell me to start fucking decorating or make the tea

Does it let you know when she needs shagging ?

My Garmin does 😉

I put a particular profile in. She doesn’t fit. But it’s found someone in Stalybridge for me

Aye. Looks good to me. You only need to enter three words. Athletic. Outdoor. Fistmaster. Amazing

4 years ago I was running 5 or 6 times a week, competing in ultras, long distance fell races etc then I got a series of injuries.  That's culminated in 2020 being my least active year, an ever growing belly and a wardrobe of medium size clothes I can no longer get into.

Fresh start on Monday.  If I've not lost at least a stone by March I'm giving up!

15 stone 2

Body fat percentage is 16% reckon I can get to 12%

That's very good! Advantage of being in an active job? 

Lowest mine had been is 20%!

Sure, but on the BMI chart, that’s teetering on obese, @Rudy

Yeah it is plus the gym at work so it’s easy to be addictive. It would be lower but I’m not a strong swimmer at all. Splashing about with my daughter yeah, lengths nah not for me

Which is one of the limitations of BMI

Just been on scales. Put over a stone on in December. Over two stone since September and the heaviest I’ve been since New Year 2 years ago 🤦🏻‍♂️

Aye, it can create a very false picture.

It like seeing the age of a car seeing the miles and declaring how good it is based on that alone

Tbf, it does say that on the tin, if/when you use it

I'm watching it just for the personal trainer 👀 I'd actually do some exercise if he was shouting at me to do it 

25 mile bike ride today 

A footy ground special 

Home to Edgeley Park to Etihad to Old Trafford and back home 

Didn't realise City were playing and incurred the wrath of their security whilst taking a spin round the ground 

Manchester city centre was proper 28 days later scenes, can't have seen more than 10 people going through the NQ and down Deansgate
