Post your daily exercise routine

Lol :wink:

Yes a personal trainer might be the thing :smiley: Sounds scary thouh :cry:
How do you find someone you like ? That’s a big problem to start with.

I am a wimp

lolol!:044:

Because he has MOOBS ? :mrgreen:

runs for cover

Moobs:shock:
Rock solid pecs of steel, Rachel. I kid you not:roll:

Lol
I don’t doubt it but they’re bigger than mine :-p

I had a yearning to be a bloke with Tits once, but if you are lacking in the Maximus Gluteus department, don’t matter how big your Tits are, you just become unbalanced.

I’m not saying a word…I’ll only get a slap in the face;-)

Well I train my legs a lot too, so perhaps my ‘maximus gluteus’ isn’t too badly formed as well. I like to be well proportioned. These lads who just train their top half look ridiculous, quite frankly.:cool:

Managed 36 curls repetitions in one minute nonstop with a 20kg barbell this afternoon. Not an easy task.

Hell Floydy, I did 30 curls with a 7kg dumb bell and couldn’t straighten my arm for a week.

Hi buddy:-) Yes, it’s hard work isn’t it?
Even more difficult is the variation where you do 5 sets on the 20kg BB: As many as poss in one minute with 2 minutes rest inbetween. Arms are like lead after all that lot!:shock:

The trouble with photos taken of outdoor exercise routes is that they just look like another country scene. They tend not to show how steep hills are, nor convey just how knackering it was to cycle up that hill without giving up and walking.

Photos don’t show what it took to ride down that bumpy hill without falling off. When to brake, when to let go, when to twist and the sheer concentration needed in sizing up a stone or a dent on a downward run …and the necessarily instant decision on how best to navigate each yard. Keeps my body and brain active anyway. :slight_smile:

Nonetheless, I was going to post a couple of photos here but blinkin’ Photobucket is acting up again! I’ll post some later.

Here are a few photos of our riding routes. Not sure if I’ve shown these particular ones before. Sorry if they are duplicated:

The Fitbit reckons I did 976500 paces in October, this was only outside the house, if all paces were counted I probably busted the 1 million.

EDIT

And covered 465 miles.

That sounds quite incredible really, Spitfire!:cool:
Is that just general everyday activity, walking to the shops etc? 15.5 miles per day is some feat:-)

Another day at the office Spitty…:-p

Yes OGF, about 75% of it is due to two of the jobs I do, and 25% is recreational.

Isn’t it about time the recreational bit was 75% and the job’s bit was 25% Spitty? :-(:-(:frowning:

Still got 7 I/2 years on the mortgage.

Impressive Floydy :slight_smile:

I do twenty knee bends using the banister as support when I go to bed .
Miniscule effort compared to yours I know but it is better than nothing :slight_smile:
