So basically I'm unfit

Hehe i couldn't help myself :(

At least your able to rectify this and have the gumption to do it.
Best advice is don't slack of even once, non of this 'its pissing it down i'll jog tomorrow' type stuff.
You will end up at square one before you know it mate.

Yeah I'm up for it been on my mind for ages and done all the talking. Like I said I'm not too out of shape, just a pot belly and a complete lack of exercise. My work though requires a fair bit of effort up and downstairs carrying 25kg of water in each hand which I don't find a problem. Some good advice on here and I reckon if I stick at it I'll lose the excess and get a lot fitter than I currently am.

Nice choice never had you down for a bit of bluegrass. Try some Carolyn Wonderland on youtube a little bit of a modern day Janis Joplin you might like.<br /><br />-- Tue Apr 30, 2013 12:02 am --<br /><br />

I'll consider the photos, might be worth a laugh.

Josh looks like he did when we were 18, (a skinny youth).

I look like an upturned lightbulb that used to be a matchstick.

Hardly exercised for years....No let me rephrase that cos who am I kidding, I have not exercised for decades. Also carrying the proverbial beer belly although to be honest it's more down to far too much fizzy pop, sugar and sweet things. So after talking the talk for god knows how long, last month I decided to cut out fizzy drinks and other stuff and tonight I thought I'd start exercising at home for a week building up with the intention to start jogging next week.

Mrs 2112 has got all sorts of exercise stuff and so I started off on a lateral thigh trainer. You kind of like run on this machine going up and down and can adjust the difficulty levels. I started off on 30 second cycles, up to a minute, minute and half, two minutes and up to 4 minutes at a time. In total I've done around about 20mins and I AM ABSOLUTELY FOOKED!

Christ almighty I've never sweat so much, my legs are shaking violently and I feel like Bambi on ice. We're going away in 3 months and I've swore I'll lose some weight before we go. Either that or I'll end up 6ft under.

Don't overdo it, you will fuck yourself up or become disheartened and fuck it off.
