So here it is. I'm a size 10 weighing 8st 5. I'm pretty happy with that but I'm certainly not a toned/healthy size 10, I have a bit of a belly that is annoying but I live with it.
My main reason for this post is that I want to get FIT! but I don't want to loose loads of weight I don't want to become too thin, like I said previously I'm happy being a size 10. I know that I will loose a little because I don't do any regular exercise at the moment but I'm just a tad worried.

I'm planning on joining a couple of classes that are physical dance/martial arts but my main goal is to get fit and healthy. I want to be able to run for more then 5 seconds without coughing my lungs up.

So really yeah just looking for advice, to improve my fitness,
I can't afford a gym being a student and I do enjoy exercise when I finally get going.

So anything really would be great.
Also if it changes anything I'm 21.

Thank you in advance.]]> Fri, 18 May 2012 21:12:28 +0000 http://www.fitnessandlifestyle.co.uk/topic/7281-i-need-a-little-advicehelp-please/ http://www.fitnessandlifestyle.co.uk/topic/7278-muscle-fatigue-problem/
Basically when I work out I notice a rapid decrease in the weights I use. For example, last week I went to the gym and could bench press 50 for 8 and I did this at the start of my workout, yesterday I went to the gym and bench pressed in the middle of my workout and could only do 20 for 5.

It's a very rapid decrease and I don't understand it. I have been going gym on and off since October and have been going straight for the last 2 months. Also my diet isn't great but it's hardly bad, I eat certain amounts of fruit and vegetables daily and also take in quite a bit of carbs.

Does anyone know how to solve a problem like this as I can barely find anything on the internet apart from sodium carbonate, and I don't know which products that is a part of.

Any ideas to solve this is great.

Thanks.]]> Fri, 18 May 2012 18:37:33 +0000 http://www.fitnessandlifestyle.co.uk/topic/7278-muscle-fatigue-problem/ http://www.fitnessandlifestyle.co.uk/topic/7277-supplements/ ]]> Thu, 17 May 2012 13:24:10 +0000 http://www.fitnessandlifestyle.co.uk/topic/7277-supplements/ http://www.fitnessandlifestyle.co.uk/topic/6935-hi-everyone/


I've just signed up to the forum as I thought it would good to get some advice and discuss things relating to fitness etc. I'm 30, been going to the gym on and off for the past couple of years. I've recently started running on a regular basis. Something which I really never used to enjoy. However I'm now enjoying it quite a lot, so much so that I've signed up for a 10k run for charity in July.


I am around 5' 9" and at my heaviest I was around 14 stone. In the past year, I managed to get this weight down to around 13stone, and as of this week I've got to my lowest weight for a good few years sitting at 12st 9lbs. I've really noticed the impact of running 3 times a week as part of my training not only on my overall fitness, but my weight as well.


My ideal is to lose some more weight, maybe to get down to between 11st 5 lbs - 12st. As well as losing the weight though I would like to tone up and build some muscle. Particularly abs/upper body and legs.


Is this a realistic goal?]]> Thu, 17 May 2012 11:25:55 +0000 http://www.fitnessandlifestyle.co.uk/topic/6935-hi-everyone/ http://www.fitnessandlifestyle.co.uk/topic/6578-pushups/
Right then and there i decided i needed to get MUCH fitter, at this point i couldn't do 1 real push-up, a friend said it was a good idea to lean on the wall and do them, i did this and eventually got to do doing 100 with ease.

Then i decided to do some real pushups, i could do 20! this was amazing! so i did 20 a day for about 3 days, then moved to 25.

about 2 weeks later is today, i just did 2 sets of 20 and 1 set of 15 before i got tired. 55 pushups!

Can anyone offer some advice? tips?

I have not taken a day off since i started, some people say this is crazy, but in the military they do them every day? so why cant i? and i feel fine

So im guessing it really is ok? and i am 17 remember, so i guess its different if you are 40+ or something

I'm exercising in the gym 3 times a week, and started swimming for the last month. Trying to keep fit within the short time I have after work and between family tasks...

Hope I can contribute with tips from my experience, and learn new things from you. Have a great day!
