Having basically what is a completely shot knee (no cartilage left, several ligament tears) I struggle with high impact exercise, hence all the cycling and cross trainer stuff.

My doctor recommended Yoga when I decided I was getting healthy three years ago and after my initial scoffing, I gave it a go.

And it's brilliant.

I'm a lot more flexible now and it helps with your breathing and posture too.

You can get a decent DVD on Ebay for a fiver - seriously, give it a go, J.

When I started yoga over 40 years ago, not many blokes got involved apart from a few celebs, but since then it's been adopted by all the top sports clubs and professionals throughout the world. There was a 10 year period when I didn't practice and I sure noticed the difference.
By improving balance and flexibility it enhances all the other exercise you do, including anaerobic weights, body-building (extending the range of muscle employed and thereby increasing muscle mass) reduces the occurrence of injury and reduces recovery time. Pilates has a similar effect and really consolidates your core muscles which are particularly important as we grow older.
Some men might consider it poncey but I assure you that there's nothing effeminate about spending your time stretching out with a bunch of scantily clad females.

There really is.

I enjoy the company of scantily clad females - scantily clad females who spread their legs, push out their breasts and shove their asses in the air every time we meet. Perhaps if I made a point of staring at their tits and crotches it would be less effeminate in your book?

As it happens, I don't which is presumably why they are comfortable with me in the class so perhaps I am gay after all?

Although I'm a bit confused by your logic as you seem to be saying that males who like females are effeminate.

What's wrong with the Jag?  

Nothing, but I might need a new starter motor

You're a gentleman and a scholar, (and there's not many of us left)

No he's not, he's a bellend. 

Look, it says so right under his avatar. 

Credit where credit's due 58. He may be a bellend, but he's a very accomplished one

35 minutes interval 3.5 km (longest yet)
7 km bike
10 minute cross trainer
Light weights

Totally wasted last week's efforts by going out for a massive scram and several bottles of vino at a new weird bistro/deli/wine bar in Wroxham* on Friday night and then a curry and more vino last night followed by my nemesis, the giant bar of Toblerone.

Have decided to go for the hat trick tonight and start over again tomorrow.


* Nice business idea this. Basically it's a wine and cheese importers warehouse. They stuck a deli on the front and that evolved into a wine bar - in the shop! So the wine list is anything you can see on the shelves (hundreds of bottles) at shop prices plus a fiver corkage in the evenings. The food is basically tapas consisting of the deli menu plus a bit of actual (albeit basic) cooking e.g. frittata or steak. We were happy with vino and crayfish tails, pates and breads, fresh anchovies, decent charcuterie etc.

Redskins on telly later in the play-offs so that means Budweiser.

And nibbles.

You keep going, J - looks like you're cracking on at a good pace.

Keep it up, mate.

I'll be watching, Bread. My Bengals really shit the bed last night. Watch the highlights to witness the mind-blowing implosion.

Just watched it.

Sloppy and ill-disciplined especially with that penalty at the end that more or less guaranteed the FG would go over.

To be honest, I'm not overly hopeful about tonight but it's being played in Landover and the Packers aren't the force they once were, so you never know.

I suppose you've backed the Packers?

Knob.

In that case,maybe they're in the wrong league.

I think we owe your lad an apology.
