I am the same length, and 97kg gives me 15%body fat. less and it will look like you are about to fall thru your ass.

A much more accurate formula is 210 minus half your age, then subtract 5% of your body weight in pounds. Add four for a male and 0 for a female. The only way to get a truly accurate max HR figure is to get a physiological test at a sport science centre, such as Fletcher Sport Science, but you can get a reasonable estimate by doing your own max HR test. Only undertake this test if you are fit and exercise regularly, though. Warm up thoroughly for at least 15 minutes. On a long, steady hill start off fairly briskly and increase your effort every minute. Do this seated for at least five minutes until you can’t go any faster. At this point get out of the saddle and sprint as hard as you can for 15 seconds. Stop and get off the bike and immediately check your HR reading. This is your max HR. “Don’t forget that your max HR figure is sport specific,” says Fletcher. “This means that your maximum on a bike will invariably be much lower than it is when you're running because the bike is taking some of your weight.” meant to put this in last night...http://www.bikeradar.com/mtb/fitness/article/training-heart-rate-monitor-basics-28838

Profile dezign. the one with the rubber band. Been down the monster at speed and never ever lost a bottle.

Don't forget about erjies bezuidenhout... That Dude was the beast...

Fausto Coppi... the greatest cyclest ever. and that other lighty,mmmm Burry something on his spez 29er. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fausto_Coppi

What's modesty... don't understand... who's this greg oak you refer to?

The legend... the beast.... the Monster of all times. He's been known as a mountain goat, if there is a hill he would ride it just because he can. he is the fastest on any down hill. technical does not stand a chance. he is my hero... ME!!! :lol:

2400cal per day, that's like one meal?

My two Brats are lazy but can do a 20k if there is some motivation. My girl (12) can give me a go on the hills. Only co'z she weighs like 5kg's. My boy (6) a bit on the lazy side likes to say " a little help here" when ever there is a slight incline. But I'm very proud of my kids and give them what I can.. Including discipline.

Nee Mense... Do I look Stupid? A half link chain is made up of only half links... BFS. http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/Models.aspx?ModelID=56340 Now pay attention! 4 fark stakes.

Maybe next year, only started training now.

Half link chain would be the best bet. Last seen at Mikes bikes.

He who hesitates.... is lost.

Give me a break, this was my first 10k since the army, 20 years ago. I do mtb hill intervals on Norfolk 7 to 10 reps 7min up 3min down. It's also been a while.

Look... I agree 56deg is out there. I can go down under now I have trained. BUT YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND. IT WAS SOOOO HOT. The part after the church where they added the extra 5k loop for no good reason, and we were poked. people were laying under the trees to get out of the sun. I had 4 punctures and had enough. ready to kill for a glass of cold water.

Cup of milo 126 cal... three chocolate chip coekies allot of cal. the look on my face, Priceless.

Slow down.... Cal and kilo cal. same but they went to different schools together. with a cuz KJ 4.19 removed. If I burn 1000 k cal, that equates to two meals? (small meals)

I can burn up to a 1000 kcal/hour during training. this is the number my polar gives me. I'm assuming this is kilo cal/ 1000 1000 cal? sounds allot. what would be the ave cal needed per day? how would you get that number? are you guys on cal or kilojulles?

I was told to eat breakfast like a king, lunch like a prince and dinner as a pauper.

Full front lobe labodemy? should improve your personality a bit, from bi polar to dull...

I think they should have a clydesdale class in all races. Big and strong, and can go for very long.

Crasher. are you going to service my bike once you have this awesome stand? or are you just over indulging now?

Thats my hill, went past there from wiskin side for my 10k's... took me 1:10 for 9.6 k's 155m climbing.

Just checked my last vitality test and my body fat is 24.3% with a 102 waist. so that means the 27.2kg is body fat. If I want 12 or maybe 15% that puts me on 97kg target weight. so I need to loose around 15kg. mmm doable.

BMI Is for the birds. whats the best way to measure body fat % ?
