Hey im not sure if there is many people who train / keep fit / bodybuild on here.

I do and have done for years and i love it so thought id set a thread for any of you vain people that wanna discuss ya bodys on here lol.

i went to the north west british naturals today to support my brother who was in the teens catergory and he came 2nd qualifying for the british nationals in 6 weeks.

it was quality, gr8 day out.

anyone else have an interest in the gym then?

I go to Gym now cause i'm a fat (beep)

lol, how is that treating you then mate.

Haven't been for few days lmao/ Should go in morning for an hour or so.

3 times a week 45 mins is enough really.

if ya wanna lose weight just adopt a pushbike mate.

Quoting this because this is true for me as well

you dont need a gym to lose weight lads.

get out enjoy the fresh air, run through forests. cycle over mountains. live the dream

I cycle to work now, saving me loads of money each month

I start the gym on the 12th of September never being 1 before!

So not 100% sure what to do really.

Run to the gym, then go to the counter and ask for your money back. Then run back.

if i a go to the gym which i do rarely i run 2k on treadmill do 3k on rowing and 5k + on cycling depends how i feel

otherwise i run around a mile a day and cycle 2 or 3 and i have dumbells in my room

HAHA!

Nah I walk like 6 miles a day anyways but with drinking and eating alot of crap just want to get back into shape really

And it's a 24 hour gym so suites my job down to a tee, £10 a month for unlimited use so can't complain at that either.

Thats a great deal to be honest Si!

Only problem it doesnt have a pool, but I would rather not swim it's unhygenic espicially a gym pool!

10 quid is amazing, id luv to c how good it is in there for that price.

my gym is 27 cos i blagged corporate price.!!

its quality, got so many good mates there too.

I got my gym membership for free because the team i play for has one, so not too bad, quality gym! i mean quality

Lee google your local 'pure gym'

They got like 50 around the country all £10/20 a month and all 24/7

ohhhhhhh also they have a no contract scheme and no cancelation fee!

Theres a pure gym up in Aberdeen now. Never been to it before, but for that price, I think I should be checking it out!

Just finished my new workout method, it's called circuit training.

My usual workout is swimming or run 5km twice a week and then split exercise with weights into three categories... A. biceps /chest, B. triceps /back, C. shoulders /legs and doing the abdominals in between, about 800-1,000 abs per week.

But this time I did this circuit training thing, my m8 introduced me to it, it's working all body parts in one training session without stop, one after the other. Not sure if it's good for me yet, just finished it and feel rejuvenated, strange little workout method it was. it's weight exercise but feels more like aerobic exercise. Looks like it's best for endurance rather than muscle build. Dunno if I can combine it with the standard resistance program.

Tbh I put much lighter weights than usual for the circuit training, yet it was very strenuous. Anyone have any experience with circuit training?

I love going to the gym, it's great! Awesome if you're stressed out and just want to let the rage out (You can do that in other ways too but this is a family site)>< And you're right Lee, you don't need to go to the gym to lose weight, just eat a balanced died, oh and don't be a couch potato ;D
