Nate Bower heavy bag session from YouTube. Feel far better for it. 

Now I've cleared a bit of space I must put up my punchbag. Do you know of any good resources such as you tube videos etc to train and develop properly? I'd actually like to start again with a bit of form and technique rather than just punching away for a 2 min rounds with no real technique like I'd have done previously.

For sessions.

If you are untrained, I would not start there though. This is a much better place to start, learn the technique first.

Oops, 80.5

Really struggling physically with the exercise bit, and keeping away from the fridge.

I wonder if I've got / had it as my breathing for running is not as good as a few weeks ago.

I haven't but I'm going to try and get back into the habit.  Even 3-4 miles a day will help.

With the best, thats a good bit of PR, though I would say the Bedford team, theres, like, you know, 13 blokes who can get together at the weekend to have a game together, which doesnt point to expansion of the game. Point, yeah go on!

It would be great to have updates (possibly with pictures, I have some warm memories of the Ouse).

This is a fitness thread rather than a weight loss one, and it is even more important now we exercise "together".

Although I went for a 5 miler the other week and managed to strain/inflame some tendons/ligaments in the top of my foot, which still hurt.  5 miles would normally be a short walk, but the week or 2 of nothing beforehand probably didn't help.

Been sticking to a routine of alternate 'longish dog walk' and 'run of about 6k but going up a hill for a bit of that'. Stopping me going completely mental.

86 for me looks like I’ll have give some kind of home exercise a go. 

Please do! I am getting lonely doing the push-ups on my own.

Every other day, and skip if I do other intense exercise.
