Actually old man did that Christmas thread remember? It had my pic in there, along with yours and the others, but it was of only my *schlong* and as usual it disappeared sometime during an upgrade. Tell me, is there a geriatric section for powerlifting?

 

Oh I'm comfortable, a few protein shakes and I'm sure I'll be right...

 

I gained 40 lbs this year. On Friday, I did the old 12 mile walking route that I used to 40 lbs ago daily (sometimes 2x). I saw a lot of the pretty Christmas lights; that was neat.

But I've been physically sore as heck all weekend from that walk. But also, I got emotionally sore. I walked by a bar and some drunks hooted at me, and it made me realize just this morning that I've been isolated in my apartment (getting fat for one thing) all year long and I haven't hung with anyone. I haven't hung around or socialized for years.

I realize this must be some missing need as I'm driven to post on this forum non-stop with this account that's been inactive for a long time, but this is not real.

I need to walk more.

 

Well I go for a walk sometimes

No pain no gain. That's the truth. I wouldn't be in the shape I'm in if I didn't work out.

 

Back down to a six and a half minute mile.

 

lost 23 pounds in 2 months

 

I think I might start doing Piss Ups. That's where you bust out a set of pushups and/or situps every time you piss.

 

It's my fitness goal for 2015, to get in shape and look 19 again. If Frodo can play in LOTR at 19 and then go back in the Hobbit at play 19 again at 30, then by crackers I've gotta try too.

 

Got my second competition booked for later this month. I don´t think I´ll be able to walk tomorrow, but other than that happy What about you all?

 

I haven't been to the gym for a month. I was on holidays then excessively busy. I had made a New Years resolution to never miss a day and haven't been. It became all or nothing. It's so easy to eat past your requirements, now I've put on 2kg. I don't feel good at all, headaches, lethargic, bloated, I'm sure I have a sugar issue.

There's that other thread about weight and losing it. It's a difficult thing to do. You have to be like a machine, don't think, just do. Do and do again. Never give in. I gave in for a month and now I'm regretting it. To say to people oh it's easy just stop eating is like saying just stop breathing. Your body operates on autopilot, to get out of the gorging cycle is a hard thing to do.

That's me and my current cross...

 

well going every day is unrealistic and not good for you. Even I had to see that at some point. You will overtrain and won´t make any progress. You gotta set yourself a doable goal

As for dieting, man, it´s the hardest thing in the world!

 

Yes it is, one has to respect those that have had progress along that path.

 

I was going to say it's all about shaving your back. Hairy doesn't go down well at the gym, he has an aversion to phalli.

 

I get out of the recliner and walk to the fridge several times a day. Does that count?

Actually, the wife and I joined a gym and we've been going for about 45 minutes each weekday. We just wanted some regular cardio as we don't work any more.

 

That´s excellent. Its good to just do a little bit to try and stay active! Your body will thank you and 45 mins. is all you need
