THE GYM THREAD

[Baines' left foot]

Funnily enough I just weighed myself for the first time in months. I'm 92kg/202lbs, down from 95kg in the summer but I'm stronger now. That surprised me considering how much junk I ate over the last few weeks.

On another note, has anyone ever made their own pre-workout? I need to cut my costs down so I'm considerijng some citrulline malate and some other bits and going a bit Walter White.

So, dry veganjuary (that actually sounds more fun somehow?) to try and shift the Christmas pounds, what other fresh hell can be piled on to make existence even worse for a month?

You'd be better off eating a protein heavy diet


Meeeaaaat

Cocaine and a double exspresso ( not mixed together) works well

I took ten days off or so but have been back it and happy I didn’t put on as much weight after the amount of ale I consumed over the holidays.

Predictably the gym is absolutely rammed with people who take three sets of dumbbells for one workout but I really hope many of them stick and turn a resolution into a habit, as it’s one of the greatest gifts you can give yourself.

Try Dale Pinnocks books, he's not a strict vegan in his recipes but loads of good veggie and vegan stuff.

Pick up limes is a good site aswell

I’m liking this Apple Watch business. Had a great shoulder session last night. I’ve trimmed my seasons down to 35-50 minutes and I’m enjoying it more.

Know a guy that swears by his Garmin Venu, if I'm gonna take the plunge and officially find out how few steps I take daily and how few calories I burn or at least mildly singe then I need to know all the options.

Garmin are good to be fair, though since they did get hacked and have everyones data held to hostage a few years back.

Its not like apple is bad gear, its just not top of the range as advertised, apple is a western obsession and anyone who has had to use an IOS system on anything approaching an industrial level has bad vibes about them. For the individual is perfectly fine.

There’s probably better available, but likely none that are so user friendly if you already own an iPhone. Apple have nailed the user experience of mobile devices.

There’s a lot of bad advice out there these days, but this guy is good.

Money’s a bit tight so I’ve dusted off the Nutribullet and I’m currently enduring a large cup of misery.

Has anyone got any decent recipes which don’t have twelve ingredients?

Old friend of mine. Has his own app. Has been on the cover of numerous men's health magazines (inc Men's Health!). He's got a 50% off sale on his workout programs atm iirc.
