Start my day early, helping clients get fitter, healthier and reach there goals.

I personally have been training years now and its a lifestyle not a chore.

Workouts should be fun, consistent and effective.

I love lifting heavy weights and high intensity cardio like boxing....oh and

Good lad. Rich Piana has a similar ethos and clearly you're both doing well.

I'm training back tonight, can't wait because if I'm honest back is my favourite. I done full body 1-on-1-off until New Year and loved training back every other day, but I've switched back to a split this year basically so I can have no days off. I feel like I'm properly falling in love with the fitness lifestyle / lifting to be honest, all I want to do lately is eat, train, sleep, repeat. I'm still feeling small and fat though. I always feel small but I'm devastated at what bulking has done to my abs so I think it's going to be an early cut this year. I'm tempted to have a little deficit end of the month to be honest.

Yes the bags of frozen fillets, they are nice to, class A best quality, that's good price to for £5 then have some vegetables to the meal and keep carbs low, for me I keep carbs very high around 400g mark aday x

For me it had been calorie counting 1600 per day since last Monday. I have also been on my turbo trainer with a program activated on my Polar Heart Rate Monitor. All good until today as I am travelling again this week. Now I am sitting in a Finnish restaurant with a beer, nachos and a order of ribs on the way. Diets and travelling don't work. I'll have to work extra hard when I get home later this week.

What's macro?? I got told about an online company today called 'muscle food' they sell meat and protein bars, eggs whites and all sorts of other stuff. Looked like quite similar prices to what you just said as well x

Should do, I'm optimistic it won't take too long but hurting nonetheless. Having a set and losing them is like breaking up with Scarlett Johansson. I've got like a threeish pack. The only way back is the hard way at the end of the day but it shouldn't take me too long. I screwed up in getting sloppy with my macros when I started bulking. Don't get me wrong I'm no bodybuilder - if I'm honest I'm happy with average definition but good explosive, raw strength. Anywhere below 15% bf I'm happy. It's all about strength for me more than size and definition. Long term goals focus more on weight than size and definition for me. But I do throw a bit of hypertrophy and cardio in the mix all the same.

My advice xx

For all those with good intentions , start slow , resist the urge to go full on until you understand your body and its reaction to excercise and diet change x

Shag, you seem to know what you're doing , however maintaining low body fat and heavy weight training regime , can be perilously close to the health line . Make sure you rest as hard as you train my friend xx

Reply privately (closed, thread got too big)

I've dialled back on the cardio for now as I felt it was becoming a chore (and the gyms choice of largely crappy music aided in that - no I don't own an I-Pod), and I've now placed a much greater emphasis on the weights, which I train heavy every night.

There's no such thing as spot reduction, so diminishing a soft belly requires fat loss overall, however, ab exercises can firm up the muscles beneath the area, and reduce the wobble (I know this from personal experience)

Great workout last night, I've turned my focus to strength, and managed to lift the entire stack (90kg) on the tricep dip for 9 reps - that's heavier than me though, so amusingly I was actually lifting myself out of the seat on most of the reps

After a slight blip in December due to, tooth infection and extraction and subsequent dry socket, cold and bad chest infection and Christmas.

I have finally managed to get back to my weight at start of December.

Plans are to continue with gym but get back on the bike once it starts to warm up.

Get down to 85kgs which should be enough for me abs to show.

But generally aim is a lifetime plan to stay fit and healthy.

After years of being obsessed with exercise and training. I am enjoying just doing what I want rather than having to do,as I am not competing anymore pressure is off. (triathlon)

Best thing is jools comes with me to the gym now and loving it

Well after 4 months of mostly weights with a little bit of cardio it's occurred toe that even though I can lift heavier stuff my actual fitness/stamina is still shit!! So I'm declaring February 'running month' gonna try to get back up to a decent 10k time. The furthest I ever did was 8 in 48 minutes. Since I started working out again in September the most I can manage is 2km! Ha! Plus I'm hoping it'll shift some of the wobble off my legs they aren't shrinking fast enough for my liking they were smaller than this a year ago and I was heavier x

You can change the insoles in your trainners and put in "shock absorber" ones...they absorb 90 per cent of the shock.....

You can buy them in John Bell and Croydon....it's a pharmacy in Wigmore street.....try it !!!!

Where is it hurting? I used to run a lot but had shin splints (possibly caused by returning to running/ netball 10 years ago when I was over weight) which were really painful. It took ages for the splints to just disappear and then I broke my ankles (fractured one/ broke the other). I have suffered with my ankles ever since but the shock absorber insoles do help. I no longer run (or avoid running on hard surfaces) except for netball oh and I cycle. This seems to help tone legs/ bottom especially the cycling.

My goals have been in weight increments and I've had different pairs of jeans hanging over my bedroom mirror and been trying them on. I didn't want to say at the beginning I wasn't to lose nearly 4 stone. So I said first goal to lose 10lbs. Then another half storm target after that etc. my new goal at the beginning of the month was to get under 10st by the end if January. I've got 1 & 3/4lbs to shift in ten days. Easy enough to do and little goals mentally help as they are easy to achieve and you don't feel like you're failing trying to go for a huge goal and not doing it x

Cant believe I missed this threat at part one lol

Hitting the weight training hard this year as want to compete in northern ireland power lifting next year got my deadlift up to 180 for 5 reps and squat to 210 for 5. Still getting over shoulder injury from last year so overhead press scares the shit out of me atm but sitting at 80 and bench at 100. Feeling stronger but due to training harder and heavier finding it hard to control my food intake

Your body actually produced cholesterol anyway through the liver, we need it, eating lots of eggs means that for the most part the liver will just produce less so it's not gonna raise your cholesterol level too much. Eggs are one of the most nutritious foods you can eat..

Now that's a good idea... Not grease though. Jelly. And maybe custard..,

Up to using the entire stack for multiple sets now on the seated dip. Fingers crossed I can make similar improvements in my chest and shoulder strength.

Jools and I did lot's of legs today. Gonna start introducing more cardio as of Feb and split workouts 50/50 by end of march cardio will be at 70% ready to hit the big outdoors when weather gets better, running, ow swimming, cycling and of course screwing

Jools is toning up amazingly well I have been stuck at same weight for a few months it's getting frustrating. However I know I am getting leaner so fat is shifting I am just not dropping weight .

Testament being first time in like forever I have purchased some trousers from top man that actually fit.

Yay

This time last year I would not have got would not have got my leg in them.

Well done everyone your all doing fantastic.

Keep up the good work.

Chapeau on all your efforts thus far and long may it continue.

A word of caution, just be careful not to overdo it and burn yourself out.

I understand your enthusiasm which is brilliant.

Try not to put to much pressure on yourself, otherwise you will find exercise will end up a chore rather than something you enjoy.

I am sure that you realise all this anyway, u seem to smart not to know.

3lbs down this week on my weigh in

That's half a stone off since end of Dec. Three classes booked next week so a few more pounds off then I'll start back on the weights properly.
