Nothing wrong with a male getting a pedicure, you'd be surprised how relaxing it is. I'm not saying you have to go once every 2 weeks but a few times a year is fine.
I just weighed in at 165, I was 162.5 on Monday morning but late nights watching LSU Clemson then last night at the Lightning didn't help me. The beer was flowing like wine.

I had not gotten a pedicure in years. I cant recall the last time.
but with the impending vacation coming up the wife suggested it as a nice weekend activity. I can't tell you how nice it was. and my feet look all sorts of nice. instead of nasty...

Thanks Seth, it’s only a goal for now. We will see if I’m going to get there. I don’t have a way to measure body fat where I am but if I had to take a guess, I’m at about 20% right now. I’m loosing about a pound every 3-4 days and doing a lot of HIIT as well as my normal lift/cardio routine. Seeing the progress is nice but still a long way to go to get to the goal. I have to keep telling myself to stay disciplined.

Ok, maybe 20% was a bad guess. I look like the 14-15% body with a lot more muscle.

I also started the year at 185lbs. Targeting 160lbs.
Built a home gym and have invested in a Pelaton. Tough going at the moment but already feeling better just for doing some exercise other than golf! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Not really into the six pack thing or caring too much about muscle definition, those days are long gone. But, there are some basic principles that I intend to get back to!
1. Chest must be bigger than waist (golden rule for both genders, means that clothes hang well) 2. Arms must fill sleeves if T-shirts 3. Must be able to bench body weight 4. Must be able to easily run a 10k in less than an hour at the drop of a hat 5. Must have forearms big enough to wear a ROO despite pathetic little wrists! Sorted! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I expect I’d be fine with a ROO but I can’t get used to the size. I really do want to. I love them. But so far, no go.

I still have a love hate relationship with my AP Diver. I think it’s way too big for me, but everyone tells me it looks fine. I keep it as my guilty pleasure, I love the watch, just don’t think it suits me. I think it’s a mindset thing, wear it with confidence and it works. I need to develop that confidence!!

Fighting weight is 170, but that’s with some muscle growth. So once down to 170 I need to replace 5lb of blubber with 5lb of muscle. Some diet, reduced carbs and increases protein. 20 minutes of cardio per day (Pelaton or treadmill) every day. And 40 minutes of weights (three days on, one day off). Another week of this, and then will up cardio to 40 minutes per day. Need to be fit for boys skiing trip end of March. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

It’s great to have reasons to be motivated. I’m right there with you, with that. I’ve got goals. And I truly believe that working towards being fit helps us all get closer to our goals. It’s a certain mindset that comes along with the effort.

Thanks Seth, super supportive as always. Once I’ve got myself into some shape, and have got into a routine (need to make exercise a habit and get my brain back into the gear of being able to push myself harder than my brain currently allows), I may well reach out to you for some training advice.

I think it's great people try to stay in shape but the most important thing is not dieting but instead creating a lifestyle that maintains your ideal weight. And that is dependent on mostly on lowering carbs, cutting out packaged garbage and replacing it with real food. Day in, day out. Intermittent fasting, meaning cutting down on your daily eating window is also helpful.
Eating junk is fine, once in a while, but if you get into a great real food lifestyle you don't have exercise yourself to death or go on yearly "diets". Because yearly diets don't work. And neither does massive exercise because you simply won't keep it up. People who eat poorly and spend hours at the gym trying to "stay in shape" are just kidding themselves because daily Peleton and heavy weights actually make you hungry and increase your need to eat more. AND muscles need to recover. Daily exercise causes stress and inflammation which is not healthy and for most people neither is the quest for 6 pack abs, which is far too little body fat to be sustainable. And using 20-30 year olds as role models is ridiculous. As are using movie stars, who train for 3 months with a trainer to look good on camera but it's not sustainable either. For them or you. Stallone et all have weights on set, and pump up before every scene. Eat right, exercise 2-3 times a week (preferably games/sports, which shut off your mind), go for walks with your significant other, and you will be healthy and fit. Live your life. |

This is great, thank you. And exactly where I want to get to. I had a six pack fifteen years ago but I will never see that again. I sit in meetings all day every day and typically do long days. So some short term pain and commitment to combat three years of letting myself go, and then I will get into a balanced lifestyle routine. I have built a small dedicated fitness room in my house, which will make training easier. I know my body and I know the approach I’m taking in the short term will achieve what I want. Where I will need advice, is how to maintain and add just a bit of bulk once stage one is complete. Maintaining the waist should be ok - I’ve re-taken up squash (played this morning for the first time in a while and will be playing twice a week), and will be going for a long walk with the dogs and wife each weekend, and also a round of golf (moving to carrying rather than electric trolley!), so I figure one Pelaton session a week on top of that should keep me trim-ish. But I’m clueless when it comes to adding some muscle bulk. Literally don’t need much, just enough to make sure my arms fill an average t-shirt, and a chest bigger than my gut. By the way, with the weights I’m currently doing, in each three day cycle I am doing one day upper body (shoulders, back, chest, biceps and triceps), one day core and forearms, and one day legs.
