Fatties: Red Bull log
-
Monday night was touch footy, which was a good 1 and a half hour run around, and last night I played tennis, which also lasted for an hour and a half. Must get into my circuit training too....but it's too cold. Fuck I'm useless. <img src='http://www.daimenhutchison.com/invision/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/rolleyes.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':rolleyes:' />

Bloody oath Moj, especially as we Bris-Vegans are used to 25-30 degrees normally. <img src='http://www.daimenhutchison.com/invision/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':rolleyes:' /><br />
<br />
Still, you're supposed to be spurring me along, not sympathising with my useless lazy attitudes! -
Game of footy again last night. Had a couple of newbies rock up who found themselves out on the wing defending against Red Bull, only to be rudely shocked when this seemingly harmless fat bastard was given a metre too much latitude, and smoked them on the outside trice. My knee is a little bit sore this morning however. A bloke that plays footy is a physio, and he theorises that maybe it's a meniscus issue. :nta He seems to think that as long as there is no instability, it should be fine to continue (without overdoing it of course).<br />
<br />
Again, my circuit training has failed to get off the ground. :shifty: -

what do you mean "killing me"? My revised eating habits have, in fact, been revised in terms of quantity (less), and quality (less fat and sugar), so that's why I'm maintaining a more healthy weight Miller, despite my admitted drop off in exercise. <br />

MvJ stands corrected, and places the Banrock at the far end of the room to his computer. -
Back into touch footy last night after many weeks of no Monday night games, due to rain, public holiday long weekends, sickness, etc etc. <br />
<br />
Anyway, was quite happy that I still retained a basic level of pace that allowed me to put on 3 sizzling tries including the match sealer, where I targeted the oppositions' defensive plodders. :whistle: The opposition veterans, familiar with my few strengths, were yelling, "don't let Red Bull get on your outside!".....Too late.....in, away, gone. :shifty:<br />
<br />
Disturbingly, I found that I had very ordinary stamina, hardly suprising given my recent lack of activity, but after an hour or so, I discovered something of a second wind, which surprised me. That has encouraged me to get back into it. -
had a solid 3-set hit out at tennis last night (1 and a half hours)....was quite a frenetic game, especially when I was serving. The reason for that is that everyone can get my piss-poor serves back with ease, so a rally nearly always ensues on my first serve. <br />
<br />
However, I was rather proud that there were no racquet-throwing incidents from the Red Bull, something for which I've received many code violations in the past. -

Clearly you are not fatbusting hard enough <img src='http://www.daimenhutchison.com/invision/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='B)' /> <br />
<br />
Seriously, though, good to see you are back into it. Variety is the spice of fatbusting as they say. The Red Bull mix of tennis and touch has always looked appealing. Now MvJ is playing a bit of touch again I cannot believe I didn't do so earlier. It's fun, and it's more fun if you can do it for more than five seconds without having a heart attack. <br />
<br />
And stop complaining about the semi-tropical weather or you will be sent on a Fatbusting Scholarship to Christchurch, on a one way ticket <img src='http://www.daimenhutchison.com/invision/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':lol:' /> -

shudder.... fair point Captain Miller! I sharnt grizzle any more about Brisbane's lovely winter weather. The thought of winter in Christchurch is more than enough to jolt me back to reality. Your proposal is like a Fatbusters yellow card. And I am Fatbusters answer to Rocky Elsom. Â That would make you.....ahem...Kaplan! <img src='http://www.daimenhutchison.com/invision/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/blink.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='B)' /> :happy:<br />
<br />
edit: Nick, please don't mention such a hideous thought again. -

In Reuben Thorne? :nta -
Had footy again last night, and Jesus it was cold. Normally the cold, still Brisbane nights are laden with dew, but it was surprisingly dry. However, Red Bulls' bare feet didn't cope too well with the 10 degree temps. <img src='http://www.daimenhutchison.com/invision/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sad.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='B)' /> ...went numb in about 15 minutes....lucky I'm tough. :whistle: The bare foot footy takes me back to Friday night rugby training as an under 7 kid at my local club. The sheer joy of running with the ball! <img src='http://www.daimenhutchison.com/invision/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':lol:' /><br />
<br />
Anyhow the game went for an hour and 10, and was a good solid run around. -
footy last night, 1 hr and 20 mins.....got heavily involved (more than usual, where I tend to loiter on the wing). The extra running and defending makes one get into a rhythm earlier. Might do that more often. A couple of meat pies for Red Bull too which was good. However....I was, and still am, thoroughly pissed off with myself as I let the final try of the game in by taking the wrong man in defence. Note to self: TAKE THE MAN WITH THE PILL! <img src='http://www.daimenhutchison.com/invision/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/angry.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='B)' /> It won't happen again.<br />
<br />
Tennis tomorrow too, which I'm greatly looking forward to. -
tennis last night, and I'm proud to announce that for the first time ever, I went through the 3 standards sets (with a different partner each set) undefeated. Happy days. Only a couple of mini tantrums. :shifty:<br />
<br />
Anyway, was a good run around for an hour and a half under lights. <br />
<br />
Monday night had a great game of footy too, that went for the same amount of time. Our team hammered the opposition with Red Bull picking up 4 sneaky pies. The amount I'm getting involved is increasing each game, as my fitness gets back up I think. -

It also involves touching women :twisted: -
Correct. MvJ is on edge hoping that Red Bull will post his historic 4,000th post here in Fatbusters.

Hello Captain Miller and anyone thats bored enough to read this post. <br />
<br />
Red Bull felt it was high fucking time he got his lazy life in order, and this started with getting a new job. Working as a graphic designer for myself, while allowing me to spend copious amounts of time to post shit on TSF, was not paying the bills quite as effectively as is necessary at my age. At the new job, if I tried to post on the Fern, the internet police would have my fucking nuts on toast (apologies if you're eating while you read this). Plus, of course, I wouldn't get the work done I need to do. <br />
<br />
So now I'm working for a large printing company, and as a result, I just can't get onto the Fern as much as I'd like (if at all). It's been playing on my mind that I'm poised to hit the prodigious and prestigeous 4000 posts, but alas, after this post, it'll probably take another few months to get to the big figure. <br />
<br />
Also, the hours I now spend actually doing work mean I have turned into a fat bastard again, reaching the sickening weight of 99.98 kgs. I'm still playing footy and tennis, but I've found my pace has dropped a bit. Not happy about that. Maybe it's something to do with hitting 30 years of age. I feel old and dirty. As opposed to when I felt young and dirty. -
you've been missed RB, no one to keep NTA in line on his side of the fence these days! Congrats on the new job but sorry to hear about the Fern access, my suggestion is all the time the site is accessible then nothing to stop you posting. People only ever check internet usage is if you're not doing what you're expected to do. Its all about managing expectations, get them used to a certain amount of work from you each day (usually about 3 hours proper work) then do a bit more and they think you're working your bollocks off, as it is, you're only working 3 and a half hours! <br />
<br />
Good luck with FB's
