That's without upping cardio or anything like that. I did lose 5kg, then put 2kg back on after a mad wan. Now I'm back down 6kg all in. Shoulders, chest and tri's are popping. Belly is floppin. Send help. Need exercises to adjust. As I type this something big going down in Dundee, about 20 police cars sirens blazin' have just hared past the house. I haven’t weighed myself but would estimate I have put 4 pounds on in the last 2 weeks since the lockdown. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I lost 20kg and have a six pack for the first time in 20+ years. Wouldn't recommend my method though.... In all seriousness, you just need to do exercises isolated to your stomach (lower abs (a b*****d!) & upper abs (a b*****d but easier)) as well as limiting you intake of calories to the same or preferably less than you burn off. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This 'lockdown' has been terrific for me, tbh. I do not drink at home so the pubs being shut have kept two temptations away. I've been walking in and home from work most days (1hr30 on its own) and just rattling eggs for breakfast, when in times gone by it'd be bacon/lorne or maybe porridge and a shake (and then bacon/lorne from the bakers if on early) Need to get this belly down a bit though. Looking no bad head on, a bit dodgy from a side view. Edited April 5, 2020 by Dele 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MSU Posted April 5, 2020 Share Posted April 5, 2020 One of the consequences of the lockdown for me over the last few weeks is I disappear down YouTube rabbit holes. The other week it was Penn & Teller Fool Us videos, this week it's been scam-baiters fucking over Indian based scammers. Particular highlights are a guy called Scammer Payback who poses as a confused old granny (in other videos he typically deletes the scammers files) and a hacking genius called Jim Browning who manages to get into a scamming call center CCTV. Fun stuff. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The delight of Jim Browning is that he's a bloke of about our age and has no cant or hysteria but goes about his work calmly and professionally with a decent sense of humour. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know, right? The other guy does it more as a form of entertainment, although he's doing good work keeping the scammers occupied for hours on end and disrupting their operations, but Jim's approach is far more methodical, and entertaining from a perspective that he's so fucking smart and misses nothing. The four part series I linked to is one of the best documentaries I've seen on YouTube in many a year. Edited April 5, 2020 by MSU 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daydream Posted April 5, 2020 Share Posted April 5, 2020 This 'lockdown' has been terrific for me, tbh. I do not drink at home so the pubs being shut have kept two temptations away.

Looking no bad head on, a bit dodgy from a side view. The belly thing is easy, in theory. Eat your 3 meals a day. Limit snacking in between meals (ideally none). Omit most obvious junk. Eat until your full. You don’t have to be hungry much at all. Eat lots of low calorie dense foods especially with your tea to get through to breakfast (I’m a nightmare for snacking at night). With your walking you’ll see fat loss pretty quick. Oh and maintain this for the rest of your life. Know that if you revert back to your old ways the belly will come back. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roy Orbison was a huge bluenose and a bit of a player in his day. Secretly had a trial with the Gers but couldn't see the ball and never made it.* *I genuinely have no idea. I'm sure someone will be along shortly with a powerpoint presentation as to why it's a sectarian song. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hearthammer Posted April 7, 2020 Share Posted April 7, 2020 Osprey Update With both adults back, the nest sorted and the ritual mating done/still ongoing, it looks like the female is now settling down to lay her egg(s). The male will likely start bringing the fish back more regularly if she is to remain in the nest over the next few days. Nature in Scotland at its finest.
