getting to big and ####
had them several weeks but only on trainer for a week ( trainer is to help get fit enough to ride as we don't want to get someone to have to come and pick us up cause were nacked plus learn the gears) lost several kg in that time plus stamina has improved
Nisi has one also

First time I've seen something like that holding up your rear wheel.

Heather just bought her non geared pushie and doggie trailer and mine is on laybuy. I went for the 18 speed gears and suspension. We've both had 12 speeds (6 speeds if you follow the manual) before and it's not really that hard.

Recently diagnosed as type 2 diabetic, (5 weeks ago) and I am about 2 feet short of acceptable height/weight ratio, I have had to radically change my diet and eating habits. Have lost 7.2 Kilos in 5 weeks, Doc wants me down from 121 Kg to about 90 Kg by Christmas. I currently have an umbilical hernia, and have been waiting 5 years for a knee replacement, neither surgery will take place until the doctor approves my weight.
They suggest I exercise (With a wonky knee?)... best I can come up with is throwing my weight around, jumping to conclusions, and diving in feet first...... I would exercise more when I wake each morning, but my feet outvote me by two to one.....

My doc was happy when I said I rode 100Ks a day on my bike, not so happy when I said it had a 1100 cc engine

Maybe aqua aerobics would be the go Kev?

Kev Murphy · « **Reply #79 on:** September 28, 2014, 09:23:14 PM »

could be, Dave, but I have a fear of water

Okay

(If you could think of a way to land softly) "AIR aerobics" while falling from a perfectly good aircraft

Cycling is my exercise. Had to get back into it after winter each year but a 210 km ride around the 20th October each year is incentive. Not doing so well this year. 50 km ride yesterday and need to do more in the next week. Also need to give Ruby some time on the road before Sunday at Blackwood. Due to health and travel issues have not been on powered two wheels since May.

While in the back yard working, I had a 16 to 20year old bloke kick in my front door. Found him searching through all the cupboards in the bedroom and tackled him.

About this stage I realised that I hadn't done any exercise for several months and after we both fell to the floor, he managed to slip from my grip and run out through the broken front door and into a waiting Holden ute getaway car.

I ran after the bloke but my legs and breath wern't with me and I had no chance of catching him or his mate.

The 000 operator kept asking if I needed an ambulance as I was breathing so hard.

SOOO it's off to the park AM tomorrow for a run and then back to the home gym, no more iced coffee's etc etc.

OR

you could just get a big dog. or a gun.

Thanks BIGGLES, that has been suggested a few times and going by the way my muscles feel this morning, it may be a better alternative.

Like the old saying I heard some time ago, "If your dog is fat, you are not exercising enough." Good excuse to get out more.

Need to get hold of some of those coppers in the club to go looking for the poor misguided yoof then Hoffy

HOFFY · « **Reply #87 on:** October 10, 2014, 07:21:14 PM »

Just been told that they did a stack of burges between my house and rockingham overnight, lots of chases but they are still running around.

At least it is keeping them fit.

Brock · « **Reply #88 on:** October 10, 2014, 07:33:26 PM »

Its hard to run some one down on foot when you have 20Kg of mandated gear strapped to your hips...

You need the Ds, they need the exercise.

Yup, now to get back to my crim injuries comp claim form, can't sleep at night anymore...

Good one BROCK

Must be tough to have dealt with that. I know I would be edgy if I had caught someone in the house. The closest I have got is some muppet breaking into the car outside one morning. I kicked them away and kept chasing the mangy bastard away. Apparently the coppers caught up with him, he fed the magistrate some bollocks and was let out again.

Guess that counts as exercise?

Kev Murphy · « **Reply #93 on:** October 10, 2014, 08:24:51 PM »

Does tossing and turning on sleepless nights count as exercise?

ST2UP · « **Reply #94 on:** October 10, 2014, 09:17:31 PM »

And does this count......

I have decided that birthdays and neglect are taking their toll, so I've joined the gym again after an absence of many years. Now it's cardio, weights, stretching..... seriously, this does not feel like it's good for me.
