Fat Burner For Lowering My Metabolism

POSTED BY Mark MS on Aug 7 under Diet, General, Gym

I completed a metabolism busting session today, with a strong cardio warm-up and then a set of full body exercises with a slightly higher rep rate of 15.  I also reduced my time between sets to only 30 seconds.
Now I would be lying if I didn’t admit to the fact that walking down the steps [...]

Weight Loss - What Really Works?

POSTED BY Mark MS on Aug 7 under Diet, General, Gym

Having seriously researched the many weight loss books and articles around, I can safely say that I was becoming increasingly confused by the mixed messages and advice out there.  Then I stood back and looked for common themes within that advice and I came up with the following insight:

This time - maybe!

POSTED BY shane on Jul 25 under Cycling, General, Running

My big fruity plans to dive into fitness training again have been slightly diluted - back to water in fact - by my inability to actually do something. This is not to say that I go home and watch TV all evening after work. In fact, quite the opposite, I have been really busy with [...]

Are you becoming tired with the same old gym routine?

POSTED BY Mark MS on Jul 24 under General, Gym

I’ve got to admit that the gym routine can get a little boring after a while so I do try to mix it up quite a bit. for instance I never work on one programme for more than eight weeks. I always take a break between programmes and I try to mix in [...]

A Confession To Make

POSTED BY Mark MS on Jul 17 under General

I have to confess that the 100 pushup challenge has fallen by the wayside due to work and life commitments. A poor excuse I know but nevertheless an honest one. I have opted to start again, from week 2; week one was no problem anyway so I don’t feel like such a failure.

POSTED BY Mark MS on Jun 21 under General, Gym

Not one to shirk a challenge, I’ve lost count of the amount of times that approach has got me into trouble, I’m also going to take up the 100 press-ups challenge.
I was initially pretty confident about doing this until I started to fit this into my new gym and cardio programme, which starts today.  I [...]
