Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

I was really enjoying it then fell out of the habit, but getting back to the gym this week has reawakened my interest in barbell work. It is very satisfying and rewarding.

That's good, Wp.
Hope you get back on track, lammo - it's hard at times isn't it.

I now have a new resistance workout plan - 3 sessions a week and including legs at last. Running is scheduled for 3x a week in Zone 2 so all easy miles and only 30 minutes at a time for now but my hamstring is feeling a lot better so it's worth it.
I'm in calorie deficit most days so hoping to see the scale reflect this over the next few weeks. I'm setting myself a 10 week challenge to be fully focussed in a bid to get to goal weight.

10 weeks is a bit random, but it takes us to the start of October. Which seemed like as good a point to aim for as any. Then it will be 12 weeks to Christmas.
