chris_w_65 Posted May 30, 2011 Posted May 30, 2011 I seem to be maintaining 67.5 which is 1kg more than my lightest weigh in. I would like to think 3 months of gym has added a bit of muscle
chris_w_65 Posted August 22, 2011 Posted August 22, 2011 (edited) Over a few months I put back on 11kg of the 30kg I lost. Managed to lose 6 of those in 18 days :clap: Edited August 22, 2011 by chris_w_65
Skidmark Posted August 22, 2011 Posted August 22, 2011 I'm in.. Last year, I went from 138 to 95. Was epic...  I've crept up to 115 over the last couple months but am already down to 112 since starting cycling. Keen to get down to 90kg. I'm 1.87m and big boned

Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted August 22, 2011 Posted August 22, 2011 Crept up to 103 over the break from reality... I've now managed to shed 7 of those kilos in the past 4 weeks. Feeling far better, and they (mostly) fit again!

Like certain heart rate, my wife old gym instructor said that one needs to up the the heart rate, but to where??  Ideas??

Like certain heart rate, my wife old gym instructor said that one needs to up the the heart rate, but to where??  Ideas?? Funnily enough, I haven't exercised NEARLY enough over the past few weeks/months. I've just been eating smaller portions, and "jiggling" during the day. EG: When I'm at my desk, my legs carry on moving, as if I'm doing mini calf-raises all the time. Gets the blood flowing just that little bit faster.  That, and stress. That's a big one in my books at the moment... In terms of HR though, you're not exercising properly if you're at less than 70% of your max. At least, that's how I see it...
DamMTBer Posted August 22, 2011 Posted August 22, 2011 (edited) It has more to do with what you eat and not how far you ride or at what heart rate Yip, also been told that... Maybe there is a dietician on the Hub that can provide, us "Keen on the weightloss challenge" guys a eating plan??

chris_w_65 Posted August 22, 2011 Posted August 22, 2011 Just by switching back from cakes/biscuits/sweets/junk to healthy food I feel a massive improvement in my cycling. I was struggling to keep up on club rides and now I can break away off the front.
