    Running long distance

    After training for a marathon last year I'm keen to get one done in my lifetime. As I progressed I didn't mind running but couldn't do those long distances all the time. At the time each new long distance run was a new challenge and was cool to actually do it. I still jog a couple of times a...

    HELP - Gym Membership cancelled

    I used to work in sales in a gym and generally the management don't want anyone to cancel their membership. Are you paying up front or DD? DD usually rolls over automatically after the term of agreement and there is usually at least a 30 day notice prior to cancellation. Unless you have abused...

    Emotional eating.

    Thanks all for the replies. I want to make clear though that stress, toxic people etc are a non factor as it seems my emotional eating or whatever seems to be on my so called imaginary break. I just extend these breaks and have used the last month of holidays and numerous public holidays as an...

    Emotional eating.

    Cheers mate. I know the trigger is this so called imaginary break I have. As you said we put the work in, we get the results and when I have a plan in place I do stick to it and the results have followed. When I take a break I give up the clean habits for whatever reason. Will I stop taking a...

    Emotional eating.

    Thanks to everyone who only reiterated what I had already admitted. Getting out and doing plenty is not the issue. As I said it's when I stop the plan for whatever reason I have the mental breakdown. Yep it's weakness I know that and not looking for justification, some practical advice like...

    Emotional eating.

    If I'm going to come clean, this is a major issue for me and no doubt it's 99.99% of the reason I fail reaching my goals. If I'm training and have a plan, my diet is is great, I plan my meals, I stick to the plan and results slowly follow. Recently I did an injury whilst lifting, I convinced...

    Beginners program

    Markos program I found to be harder than 5X5 but I found since I prefer 5X5 I would stick to it longer. So I guess the program you stick to the longest is the best..........for you.

    Chest pain, not muscular

    Recently I have been getting this dull ache on the left side of my chest. There is no tightness and my heart is all sweet but sometimes when just leaning forward I got this dull ache. Today I was doing shoulder press and the ache was there and then suddenly something triggered in there, didn't...

    The PB Thread

    Awesome. The 120kg was the first time I had someone there, I workout at my work gym and it's empty so should something happen, and things happen sometimes then I'd be in a spot of bother. Good on you though, good stuff

    120kg Bench x 3. Before I started this program then most I had ever done was 107.5kg. I have a spotter now also, before that was solo so mentally even it helps.

    The PB Thread

    Ok slight dilemma, today I did a PB of 177.5kg Deadlift X 5. Felt comfortable doing it but the problem is, my work gym has no more weight in the gym. I've asked for more weights and was declined, so either I just stick with the same weight and add reps or go and buy my own plates and bring them...

    Are lifting straps for the weak?

    I'm fairly new to deadlifting and I do it at work where the bar is quite thick. As I was progressing I found that my grip was giving out but I felt like I could still do the lift so to speak. I'm not entirely sure how a thicker bar effects the lift but I presume a thinner bar is easier to wrap...
