Managed my first morning at the gym today. Did the 35min burn class. Figured in a room full of others there's less chance of me quitting early. Enjoyed it but my legs are like jelly now data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7
Well in be proud..... don’t you feel great immediately afterwards though for sure
Well done matey, great start! When is the next one?
Booked in for Wed and Fri morning as long as my legs are still working in the morning.
You might need two things:
1. A wheelbarrow
2. A friend who will use it to get you home data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7
Oh boy aching all over this morning data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7 Struggled putting my socks on! How you getting on Ned?
I am still just doing long walks bit further each day
Few a day
I did well with brisk walks with the dog for a while but weight loss just levelled out. Not to much fun walking the streets at night during the winter, even the dog looks at me to say "do we have to go out in this".Been stuck at the same weight for weeks hence now trying the gym.
A weight loss plateau can last a few weeks to a few months and can be influenced by a few factors but don’t lose heart, weight lose is not linear and even when your calorie intake is on point you could gain the odd pound here and there. As you lose more and more weight and get closer to your goal weight you should consider doing body measurements as well as scales, especially if your hitting the gym as well.
great stuff guys, and I would also keep a log of what you do as you can see how much you progress over time, and keep disciplined...
a log is important as if you're doing a specific exercise i.e. squat :45kg, walking 1mile in 15 minutes, or 5 lengths at yourswimming pool etc - then you will see an improvement over time (in terms of the weight, number of reps, and timings etc) , and when you're lacking in motivation you can see how much you're progressing over time...
I would also have a simple routine plan* and stick to it - and do something that you can maintain long term, and also something that enjoy
* tho, any additional ad-hoc exercise will be of benefit, as it helps to get into that kind of mindset..
