    Run tonight - 5.02 km in 27:18. Was going to do 10 but Mrs TA had to go out. Good thing too - things started to burble alarmingly about 3 km in and I just made it back in time to use the facilities!

    Had a day off yesterday doing family shit and chillin. Chinese for dinner last night, which I accompanied with bourbon. <br />
    <br />
    Back on the bike today - literally - on a 40 km ride with a mate who lives up the mountains but wanted a look at the local cycling tracks.<br />
    <br />
    41.27 km in 1:39:20 - average speed 24.93 km/h which is pretty good going for a distance I haven't covered in a while

    THe way I dealt with my issues on my longer runs, was to take some laxitive the morning before, so I was running on empty...(puns intended)

    You guys are getting as obsessed with your weight as a whole bunch of women. Tell me, isn't how you feel/look more important ? I'm personally really struggling to get south of 96kg but suit pants/jeans feel great so not too concerned. 90 is hardly obese after all !

    Yeah look and feel is pretty important, but I've got my bucket list item to check off, and that involves < 90 kg.<br />
    <br />
    Unless I get to about 85, my look/feel will still be unsatisfactory due to body fat %. I'm still carrying a bit of fat and the loose skin is also becoming an issue. If I drop to 85 then build back up a little, I'll look a hell of a lot better than I do now

    I feel much better than I have in years, am happy where I am with weight as well.<br />
    <br />
    I will try to maintain things a bit now and stay under 90 while doing a bit more strength stuff and building a little muscle.

    Dont think so! Have eaten poorly lately (BK friday lunch, kebab friday dinner + bottle of pinot) and did get 1 pie in on saturday and a couple of (low carb) beer.<br />
    <br />
    Might need to add in another 50grams of oats and protein mid arvo.<br />
    <br />
    <br />
    FYI - just finished last eats for today and just over the 2900cals with 327g carbs, 85g fats and 210g of protein.

    Gym after work today:<br />
    <br />
    [b]Military press[/b]<br />
    6 x 20<br />
    10 x 40<br />
    10 x 40<br />
    10 x 40<br />
    Really concentrated on technique for this after figuring out a couple of things via YouTube. Reckon I'll be able to get this to 50 with what I learned in about 4 weeks.<br />
    <br />
    [b]Dead lift[/b]<br />
    6 x 50<br />
    10 x 80<br />
    10 x 80<br />
    10 x 80<br />
    <br />
    [b]Squat[/b]<br />
    10 x 50<br />
    10 x 60<br />
    10 x 60<br />
    These hurt. After yesterday's ride the left leg in particular was troublesome.<br />
    <br />
    [b]Bench press[/b]<br />
    10 x 60<br />
    10 x 60<br />
    10 x 60<br />
    <br />
    [b]Chinup[/b] - 8, 5, 4<br />
    <br />
    [b]Bent row barbell [/b]<br />
    10 x 40<br />
    10 x 40<br />
    10 x 40<br />
    <br />
    [b]Pullup[/b] - 2, then I was too shot to even do one more<br />
    <br />
    36 minutes.<br />
    <br />
    Got to manage my energy better before the gym - keep running out of puff.

    Not alot actually. Havd 100ml in the morning with my oats (plus protein and 3 eggs) and just knocked back another 250ml (albeit trim) with my before bed protein shake. Most days though I hardly touch it and have shakes with water etc.<br />
    <br />

    Went on a fairly hectic food binge yesterday after picking the kids up from school. One of those days where I hadn't slept well, started at 6am, and just didn't bother executing any self control against my sugar cravings.<br />
    <br />
    Weigh in this Saturday is going to be interesting <img src='http://www.daimenhutchison.com/rugby/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':)' />
