    Don't kill yourself - it's volume which acts as a basis for everything.

      Good video. Applicable for a number of disciplines.

      I think it was Bruce Lee who said "I'd rather face a man who practised 10,000 punches 1 time, than a man who practiced 1 punch 10,000 times"

              First 5km jog in a while. 32 minutes even with a couple of hydration stops in there. Feel ok actually and the aura wasn't that bad, so maybe that is my "training" slot for HR

              Waking home now to weigh in...

                Was awake since 4:30 so once it hit 6 I went for a run. Vision issue came back (fuck!) after ten minutes, so maybe not all is rosy there. But yesterday I hydrated beforehand so maybe that's it?

                Weigh in this morning.

                @nta said in Back for more!:

                Today: 101.6kg - Chest 118cm - Waist 111cm - Hips 112cm

                Today: 100.2kg - Chest 117 - Waist 110 - Hips 112.

                So another 1.4kg gone along with a couple of cm.

                Feel like I could take a fairly decent shit, too, so maybe even under 100? 😉

                Fucking stoked.

                Today: 99.4kg - Chest 116 - Waist 109 - Hips 111.

                Well I'm happy with that. Under the ton for a first time in... well a long fucking time.

                Losing another 800g over a week is still pushing hard. 4kg over 3 weeks probably isn't anywhere near what you'd call drastic, I suppose, and nearly half that happened during Week 1 where you lose the "water weight".

                If I could keep up with half a kilo a week from here, I'll be just over 95 by 1st September. And probably telling the doctor to shove his meds.

                  So this week's exercise plan :

                  Monday: 5km run early
                  Tuesday: Pilates
                  Wednesday: 5km run early
                  Thursday: Body weight sets
                  Friday: 5km run early
                  Saturday: 5km run early followed by weigh in
                  Sunday: Mrs TA is going to see a musical with her mates, so I'm in charge of the kids. Might take them bushwalking and then wait for her to get home, half-drunk and toey. She's the best apparatus I've found!

                      @mn5 yeah. Basic mat Pilates as a gentle introduction. No doubt I'll be sore by the end.

                        Probably not as bad as you'd think to be honest but you'll definitely feel it in muscles you never knew you had.

                              5km this morning in 30:15 - very close to the 6:00 / km mark that I'd like to get to.

                              Have to say I didn't get any aura issues either so maybe it's the perfect pace, or I've turned a bit if a corner on that. Time will tell.

                                  @catogrande may also be related to getting the right amount of hydration. I'll experiment with it.

                                  Had a sneaky step on the scales and, despite having a fairly breezy day eating-wise in the city on Sunday, still hit 99kg.

                                    Might add some upper body on Monday evenings. Help put away the work angst and get stuck into the well after Sunday recovery.

                                      A few sets of chinups in between hanging the washing: 4, 3, 3, then one starting from full hang, real slow to the top and back.

                                      Abs and breathing to finish
