Gurfateh jee

This is part of a bigger process which I haven't explained/ shared yet, the first step is to tackle the diet which can be harder than introducing exercise.... having said that we are all doing this for different reasons, some people want to loose weight. There's not that many of us actively involved yet. I know that one or two of the regular posters or active participants are partaking in regular exercise, one person visits the gym on a regular basis and has a trainer to support them, others are going for walks. I have been going on bike rides as I haven't had time to make it to the gym but it's actually quite good exercise.

Ok sweet maybe try going running its real good if you're doing well with your diet as it looks and drink a lot of water throughout the day and protein food stuffs to help strengthen up muscles after going running

That's what I do anyways

Sundays is pasta night. Wholewheat pasta with a side-salad and some low-fat cottage cheese.

Exercise is currently limited to 5 days a week. I don't think I have it in me to train for 7 days at this moment in time. My aim is to, eventually, get on my stationary bike and start high-intensity cycling, which was a staple of mine just under a decade ago alongwith a very effective weight-training regime. But that's very, very far into the future.

You train five times a week ? Bhaji let your body rest for a day or two in between

Training 7 days a week is not recommended... unless you are talking about a 30 minute strol or something light on some days. Recovery is equally as important, especially when doing high intensity training as mentioned by RavindaSingh.

A 20 minute gentle walk each day is not 'training', lol. Sorry, I shouldn't have been so dramatic. :biggrin2: I call it training just to psychologically convince myself I'm doing something good.

Even when I was at my peak, the weekends were usually a few situps and nothing more. I just couldn't bear to not do anything on the weekend.
