The rebuild of M4L and a new challenge
-
Do you still find time for the rippers?
-
@rancid-schnitzel who?
-
You, Mr DildoinMouth.
In all seriousness, you're clearly doing an awesome job with the training. Great stuff!
-
@rancid-schnitzel haha in all honesty i haven't been in a ripper club since 2011, and before then i couldn't even tell you actually.
Training has been okay, but a little too sporadic. I don't enjoy the swimming much, so i have avoided it, bit more on the bike though.
All this cardio fucking strips the weight though!

How's the diet? I've always found that more of a help than just cardio alone.

@mn5 too much beer. But i don't eat much junk, and cut most of my sugar out (okay down). Also a bit better on my portions. Combine the two, and i needed to buy new pants because they were all a size (or 2) too big, while all my shirts got tight at the top! Not a bad problem to have really.
Still careful to put enough fuel in though, i notice the difference when i don't.

The piss can be a tough one especially in the heat. I've really cut down on the wank craft beers and instead I'll have a corona or 2 ( not great i admit but better than a bloating IPA or APA ) or red wine. With the inevitable Summer barbies I make sure to have meat and salad and minimal carbs, I find this works pretty good for me personally. I'm down to 34 jeans AND I need a belt. Pretty happy with that.
Did I mention I hate running?
-
running can get fucked.
All my new neighbours are piss heads who love a beer, and i have the worst rubber arms. And the missus also has those same rubber arms, so i don't even have a handbrake! And it's hot, so having a beer is an absolute joy. Trying very hard not to have any monday-thursday, but i really feel like one when i get home...
Still, I'm skinny as fuck, so don't need to be fanatical about these things

There's definitely a reason Craft beer connoisseurs have guts.....
Having a beer is one of God's great gifts to us. So good. Old mate @NTA and myself had loads of good drops when he came here.
-
somehow, despite eating and drinking shitloads more than normal, and doing no exercise (combination of heat and having visitors take over my gym area) I have managed to lose a kg and a bit since just before Xmas, so pretty stoked...
Dont expect my home brews are great for the waistline but they sure taste good while I watch TR Jnr mow the lawns!

I think Vodka must create guttock as well. Was in Egypt a few years back and most of the tourists were from Russia. Never seen so many guts.

Yeah somehow I lost about 4kg and I think since start of December I’ve only had about 3 days where I haven’t touched alcohol

@taniwharugby said in The rebuild of M4L and a new challenge:
@jk ha yep, every day I'm like, dont need a beer tonight, gets to 4pm, ~30deg and I think, shit a beer would be nice right now!
Bit cooler in Welly yesterday so had a stout instead of my usual Corona. It's all about adapting to the conditions.
-
@taniwharugby said in The rebuild of M4L and a new challenge:
@mn5 not cooler here, my car said it was 35deg, which is usually about 3 higher than actual, and TV said 28 and actual is usually about 3 higher than that...but I guess thats nothing for our Aussie residents!
The heat makes shit Aussie beer taste delicious.

Quite impressive that one - but you've been here a while, you know how it works. Nobody is really interested in your training, but beer, tits and ass, winners every time.
