Granny Danger Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 Can i ask you a thicko question? As an old fart wanting to lose a bit of weight and get a bit fitter,where do i start? I sit at a desk all day. I was fitter when i worked as a chef,because at least i was on my feet all day.I dint mind walking and i have a mountain bike,but i would need to build up to that ...Ta Capy.. How old? Anything you do will have to include dieting (I speak from experience). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anything you do will have to include dieting (I speak from experience). That's pretty much it. You'll know about healthy eating Capy so give it another go. I go for the 3 meals a day and plenty water. Pretty simple. Is there any sports you enjoy? Swimming could be an idea. If you're really serious about getting fit, write up a programme of what you do at night then fit exercise around it. Then you'll be able to get on that bike and go for lovely long cycles this summer! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An Sionnach Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 Christ, it must be a right bugger having to work a shift, rather than just sit on yer arse and pick up the wages. You missed out the bit about the delays caused by you having to stop and give a running report on P&B. Just got back upstairs - it was brutal! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Breaking Decency Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 They are gears old man Or brakes. Don't forget those, they're quite crucial in the bike lever world. Unless it's an old bike with coaster brakes- then the only lever you'll need is the big one to scrape you off the road. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the orange sides around it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
