Having studied the plan Im not overly impressed....

Your luxury meal isn't very luxury at all.

A luxury meal plan for me looks like.....

McDonalds Breakfast
KFC Lunch
and Chinese Takeaway
washed down with a few jars of larger

I don't think im cut out for this nutrition stuff

Vegemite, Bovril, ????

Edible variant ?

 

[MattyontheWhistle]

lol...there is space reserved in my luggage for bringing a few jars of the PROPER marmite back with me.

Will be landing in UK on Friday - make sure the weather is turned up for me guys?

 

[SM]

Your in luck weather wise! We have some sun and usual moaning "it's too hot..." From the indigenous population!

 

[MattyontheWhistle]

lol...being an 'indigenous' myself I have caught myself here saying 'it's too hot' - in the middle of winter!

 

[Ryan Owens]

You lot don't know winter until you've been to Canada. 25 degrees below and 25 cm of snow.

25cm of snow?? Last year, near where I live, we had snow that stretched for a couple of miles!

 

[SteveAustinRef]

haha its snow problem......

 

[Ross]

One more terrible snow joke a d I start dishing out warning points!

 

[Ian Mitchell]

Ross, I just don't catch your drift!

 

[Mick.]

All white. Calm down. Don't take the piste. Snow laughing matter.

 

[Reffariiii]

Now now, your walking on very thin ice here!

 

[SM]

I don't know, snow jokes when it is so hot outside that I am... flaking... out....

I'll get my (snow) coat...

 

[Ross]

@Ian Mitchell @Mick. @Reffariiii @Supermonkey you leave me no choice! I think warning points aren't enough. How about a nice little holiday from the site?

Where's the ban button?

Started training on June 3rd after taking a rest from football for 3 weeks.

Training 3 times each week. Simple 12 minute warm up consisting of 5 minute run, 2 minute rest and then 5 minutes of shuttles over 16m distance. The hard work is all interval training. Some days it's 30s running, 30s walking doing up to 50 reps. Some days it's 2m running, 1 m walking doing up to 12 reps. Some days it's running one side of a field, walking the other three, running two sides, walking the other two, running three sides, walking the last one, running all four sides. 3 minute rest and repeat in reverse order. Warmdown is a 5 minute jog/walk before doing 5 minutes of static stretches.

I'm training in a group in 2/3 sessions and on my own for one.

Lost 16lbs in weight (7kg) since then. VO2Max increased from 31 to 35. I turn 50 in 32 days.
