IKWYDLS - I know what you did last summer!

I’ve stagnated. I’m in a rut.

I need a kick up my 90kg arse.

I am wasting my life.

I can run an Alphafly powered sub 20 min.

I can train loads but am not reaching my potential.

As per my bloggage, between now and the end of the year I’m going to get back on track and try to be accountable to myself.

Accountable above ‘I’m in’

I’m going to see how this thread goes. The idea is to sign ourselves up for an autumn of accountability. I will post my goals below shortly.

My idea is that like AA we will pair off with a mutual sponsor and you need to support each other to achieve those goals.

Sounds like a good idea. I hope you get some people willing to buddy up with you. I've got a couple of injuries battling it out for control of my left leg at the moment, so I'm not in an ideal place... but I'll follow the thread with interest.

I also need a hefty kick in the hefty arse.
The year so far has been dominated by work stress, adjusting to medication, illness, travel, and more work stress (oh, and some rugby).

September always has that new school year feel to me, so a perfect time to set some good goals.

I'll figure some out and come back.

Let’s do it! It should also create some closer friendships as people are fairly challenged against their own goals!

Awesome 4some! While it’s small I think we can all stick together - happy receive Fmail, text or whatever to stay on track.

What are your end goals? (Month/year)?
How are you going to achieve them daily?

How can I help/can I help you with some ideas to achieve them?

Raemond: To fit in favourite jeans by Xmas
HOW: Alcohol w/end only
No takeaways
Orange Tuesdays, rugby x2, run x1, strength x1

Nightowl: Under 10st by 31 Dec & 15 mpw min.
Drink more water.
HOW: Improve diet - have you done the maths and considered in detail what you need to do?

Why 15 mpw? It’s nice to focus on the process but very easy to ignore without a why - “consistent running will improve PBs”? Will you do 5 x 3 or 3 x 5?

Fraggle: TBC

Welsh Poppy:

Back in my OMM rain jacket by 31st December

Body fat at 22%

HOW: I will do this by sticking to

1799 calories a day

111g protein( as per JSA)

Sweetie:

Goal: Lose 8-10lbs before Christmas

1850 calories per day

Not to exceed sugar target on MFP

3 walks per week (in additional to regular training plan - I can swim/bike/run and shift nothing but with walking the weight seems to go quite rapidly)
1 x yoga per week (not related to weight loss but need to get back into regular stretching).

Lammo:

Lose 8 kg by end of year

Exercise for 7 hours per week (i'd rather not include walking, but am sure i will to start with)

How: No snacks, less sugar, more fruit and veg, also making better use of my time for being active.

HOW? No booze, no crisps, better eating habits, drink more water, get more sleep.

Jaks:

Gimmie Medals:

I want to:

Lose 10kg by Christmas

Run 5k comfortably (might include jeffing, but it’s the comfortable bit I’m after)

I’m doing it by:

10k steps a day (I’ve just hit my longest streak of 18 days)

Counting calories on MFP (Daily calories as per JSA calculator)

3 x resistance exercise sessions each week
