    The 2017 Exercise Motivation Thread

    I agree with Nirachan too. Rohan is making me rest every second day and I'm not even sick. Exercise will have no benefit to you when you are sick. Your body will be using all its energy to recover. It will not grow muscle, it will not burn fat and you won't be improving your fitness. In fact you...

    The 2017 Exercise Motivation Thread

    I'm on holidays. Not good internet connection here at times. I can't remember if I posted my change of plan? I'm taking a month off he weights to do cardio and reduce my body fat.

    Thanks for the welcome back 128512 I've decided to take a week off the weights and I'm going all out cardio to try reduce my body fat. I did 1/4 oval sprints and half oval jogs for 20 mins this morning and then 10 sec sprints with a 2 min rest x10. The afternoon sprints were not very intense...

    That's a good question Norachan. I don't think shivering counts but I wonder do our bodies burn more fuel to keep warm or to cool down? I'll have to google it. JTbo do you know the answer? You always seem to know these things. I was a slacko on Sunday and didn't do my workout. I had 2 naps...

    Hi everybody. I'm so sorry to have neglected you all. I do however think of you daily. I've still been lifting weights 6 days a week plus 2 1/2hr jogs or peddles on my spin bike. I've also been sticking to my new diet. I've lost 1% body fat in 4weeks which is apparently very good. The main thing...

    Yay!! So glad twinkle is back. I'm still working away here. It was 30 deg Celsius today here. I did my legs light weights and then went for a 5km run. I stopped and walked for 5 mins. I kept hoping someone would have a garden hose running so I could get a drink but no such luck. I survived...

    I did it!!! I trained after dinner last night. I did back and chest. Today I did shoulders and triceps with Rohan and tonight I did my biceps which I was supposed to do last night but it was too late. Today I signed up with a nutrition coach. It's crazy expensive and I woke up in the middle of...

    I trained on Monday with Rohan. I started my new programme. I did my back and chest and then planned to go home and do my biceps. I got home, ate and crashed. I didn't do my biceps nor did I train again until the Thursday. 128576 I was unmotivated. That's pretty much a first for me. Sure I...

    Hi Peeps :wavey: I'm well rested and back. I did go for 2x 5 kms runs last thurs and frid. That was great. I did get pretty sore legs though :D. I think I used to wear a D width sneaker for running and the last pair I got were a B and they have been terrible from the start. I had blisters on my...

    I've hit the wall. I didn't train yesterday. I had a headache and felt tired. I did biceps and triceps heavy and shoulders light with Rohan today. I'm so glad I was booked in to train with him. I'd be still procrastinating now. So I'm officially on a rest week now. I am relieved. That's another...
