Sick of being Fat

[Lee909]

Its simple

 

If you use more calories than you eat youll loose weight.

Went to cross fit last night. Thought I was fit as I pretty much box three times a week and spa once a week. Cycle quite a bit as well. That cross fit has got me hurting in places I never thought possible. A good different way of training. Some mental heads in there though!

What is cross fit?

[Rico1304]

I've just started running again, I'm shit as I get myself thin and fit and then stop. Done it about 4 times.

 

Done 4, 4 mile runs this week with the last one fartleks of 1 mile warm up and then 2.5 miles of 2 mins fast and 2 mins slow with a warm down of 0.5. It was fucking awful, nearly puked about 3 times. This time last year I did 10 miles at 7.30 min miles. Soul destroying.

Another all or nothing man, huh?

 

Let the 'this time last year' shit go; there's nothing to be gained from it. You are where you are and that's some effort you've put in this week.

Cheers Champ, totally correct about all or nothing. I can be committed for about 10 weeks, then I see the result and dive into a pool of chips and gravy to celebrate. I'm 44 next month, it's going to be tougher to yo-yo so I need to get my act together. In my head I've still got a sub 45min 10km in me.

[Lee909]

And you have it,if you want it

 

 

 

That man is amazing

[lifetime fan]

I had a chest infection and tonsillitis, lost 10lb in less than a fortnight.

What is cross fit?

Like a mixture of weightlifting, functional movements and cardio. Designed to make your body do something different everytime.

Fuck, I saw Ron Hill on Wednesday, he's an inspiration- or a reminder how shit I am.

[Paulie Dangerously]

Oh god. I helped a mate move before I went on my run yesterday. Felt great but can't move today.

Is he on the move again today,tell him to do it himself.

[Paulie Dangerously]

W3R1 of c25k done this morning.

 

Thought the 3 minute run would do me in to be honest as it was the longest so far but managed it well. Lost another lb as well in weight but can tell from my jeans I'm losing inches

Jesus, not worth it

Feel like that after Ive spent all day detailing the cars. Back and knees fucked and struggle to run!

[Paulie Dangerously]

Knees are sore. Normal for tubbies jogging or am I a crock?

Depends how old you are!

 

Ive managed to get out every day over easter (4 days) but all the good work has been undone because the wife gave us pudding with cream and after 8 mints with every fucking evening meal! Oh well, maybe I havent put on as much weight as if I hadnt done any exercise!

[Section_31]

Can anyone recommend any decent cardio routines for the gym for those of us who get bored easy? I lost about three stone a couple of years back doing the couch to 5k, I've tried doing it again a couple of times but just get too fucking bored. 

[johnsusername]

Cardio is generally boring. Resistance training (i.e. weights) is well better, more varied and burns calories long after you've finished your workout. Plus you'll look better. And running just destroys your knees and ankles. IMO.

Not fancy cycling instead. I do weights in the gym but the cardio equiptment bores me to tears. A good bike ride is great.

[Section_31]

I never found resistance training, cycling or cross training helped me lose weight. Jogging was all that worked. I need something varied and reasonably short but intense.

I use the cross trainer and step machine for my cardio because the treadmill hurts my fucked knees. I also do sit ups with the medicine ball. Am I doing enough to lose weight and look fucking awesome?
