Glad to hear it Warhawk! I love the feeling of walking out of the gym after a killer workout where you really feel your muscles aching! Keep up the good work mate! -

I've upped my running over the last couple of weeks and have been hitting the gym afterwards in order to build up a regular routine. The results are better fitting clothes and my muscle tone is picking up. After going sly and getting some more sun I definitely have a better attitude nowadays.

Slowly building up the endurance level after a long period of body neglect. I finished this week with 21 miles running, two weight sessions and included a bit of swimming into the mix.

Where do you guys get the energy? I must admit, one bad thing about me, I do not do any exercise, except for all my own garden work. (I have a big garden) No cardiovascular workouts -- this is bad for me, I know, but I am just not a physical person anymore. My mind seems to burn up all the calories. At school I was very active sport wise.
Fortunately I am slim and I have never had any weight issues. But the old ticker does need to be worked regularly.
Perhaps I will draw some inspiration here. -

Well... there goes any chance of getting any lifting goals this month. I've done my shoulder again
I was doing 52.5 kg (115 lbs) bench press (which is no where near my maximum) and when I was on my last rep of my last set I was about to rack the bar and my shoulder started grinding big time and I almost dropped the bar on myself (I highly recommend people always using a spotter, even if they never need to help) and now I can't lift anything too heavy. So that is a couple of weeks away from chest and back exercises :S Now I just hope I can loose those last few pounds to reach my goal weight for the month!
Oh and might I add the day before I injured my shoulder (last Wednesday) I split my head open with a mattock at work...
Been in the wars this past week... -

I hope you can draw some inspiration from us Waine too. I work 5 days a week as a landscaper. It is nothing for me to shovel 40 cubic metres of soil or toppings then go to the gym that night.
It is all about getting yourself into a routine, because once you are in the habit of going to the gym or just exercising in general you actually feel guilty about missing a session which makes you want to make the next one! -

@Beardman-Sorry about your mishaps, a speedy recovery to you. Just curious, did you remove your avatar because of the head injury?

Thanks Harry.
No, I didn't remove my Avatar... I thought something went funky there... I will try fixing it though -

This thread is really motivating me. . . I hope you don't mind if I join in. Since May I have lost 28 pounds and am swimming 45 - 60 mins 3 - 4 times per week. I hit the gym 1 - 2 times per week for cardio and weights. Definately need to up that. My July August goal is another 5 pounds towards the weight loss goal of 50 pounds . . . and build up my back and shoulder muscles. Thanks for the motivation. . . I am doing this on my own and it is good to hear from others working on their fitness levels.
