Not gone/started well, I have excuses but that doesn't change the fact I've failed!  :x!

Going to sort out the spare room gym this afternoon, got some weights n stuff but have no idea what to do with them, I might make a list and ask for some advice!!

Awww that's no good man, don't get too down on yourself you've still got a bit over a week to get on track. I know it is really hard to get motivated and get into a routine, but once you do, you'll be off and racing!

If you need some pointers one of the best websites I've found is www.bodybuilding.com. They have lots of really helpful information, have a poke around the site and you'll find lots of useful information there. I use the "exercises" section to build my workouts, they've got thousands of exercises and they can all be filtered by the muscle group they work. Each exercise has a male and female video (well nearly all the time) as well as a written "how to". But they have an abundance of knowledge there. So it might be a good place to start.

If you want too, you could probably even google for beginners weight training programs or something along those lines, that's how I found my first program (can't remember what it was now). Just please, please, please, make sure that you start of light until you have the technique down pat. If you are struggling to learn/understand the exercise, there are some really good "how to" videos on youtube, I remember youtube was a great help when I was learning power cleans and deadlifts.

Good luck mate, and I hope to hear by the end of the month you've got a program of sorts and are giving it a go  O0

I started off awesome then got a virus and have literally been coughing, full of cold and literally felt terrible. I have this week off work as holiday so have just chilled and Monday I am back on the fitness programme big time!

Beardman:
That's no good at all mate. At least you've had some time to recover though. I hope you hit the program again running!

I have been a little slack, but for most of you guys that's perfectly fien seeing it's only jsut ticked over the first.

But how was everyone's January?

It's been quiet in here for a while, did people get rolling, did they lose motivation somewhere, if there is anything we can help with to improve your training let me know, I'm no expert, but I'll give it a go haha.

As for me, well what can I say...

I kinda had a bit of an injury, but that has recovered nicely, I think I had just been pushing too hard and my body was telling me to slow down.

I did get the 27.5kg dumbell flat bench!

I don't think I got the deadlift goal because I didn't want to risk my shoulder again (reoccurring injuries :XX )

I did get the 50kg Good Mornings,

I actually get the 35kg preachers unassisted! and started working on 40kg preachers so I'm stoked!

So how about everyone else, it is ok to admit failure, hopefully next month you can get back on the horse and give it a good run!

TyMoore122:
Hay all,
been traveling and tide up by the girlfriend :)

Hit all my goals for the month except cycling. Averaged 6-7 sessions, 7-10 hours per week. No injuries and great things abound!!!

Hope all are well...cheers, Ty

Beardman:
Glad  to hear you've been living it up and still hitting goals, keep up the good work!
