I don’t begrudge any dude for getting into self improvement. Working on making yourself better is amazing and empowering. But the current brand of male self improvement is bad news
Can my fellow men please find more balance between the supplements and gym time with picking up a history book and working on mental health?
Improving your headspace is just as important as getting ripped
Weighed in for the first time since going to Dallas, since I knew damn well I was going to eat like a garbage dump on vacation.
And it's pretty good.
I weighed in at 281, but I know I'm retaining water from some things I consumed yesterday, so I'm not far off from the pre-vacation 278.
Credit to the meds helping me control my appetite and not skipping a workout even on vacation. Cheers.
Ten days of inactivity increases insulin resistance, reduces brain-derived neurotrophic factor expression (BDNF; a protein that supports growth of neurons), and an increase in markers of Alzheimer's disease.

"Old" is not well-defined, and appears to be >35 years. 35 is not old. I didn't start needing more recovery time until 58. #GrainOfSalt

I've done 4 days straight of 20 minutes on my exercise bike. It hasn't been easy, but it's improving my lungs and my stamina so it's important to stick with it.
Good morning tooters. It’s around 10-11c this morning but will end up at a lovely sunny & clear 24c. We need some rain, I will need water the garden again today.
I slept in again today, I’m very glad the daylight savings finishes this weekend. Hope everyone is well this #Friday morning. I seem to still have hay-fever after being in the garden for a while again yesterday. I was sneezing as I went to bed last night & the first thing I did when I woke was to sneeze. I feel fine, it’s just my eyes & nose. Annoying more than anything 
. I need to get a new attachment for my hose as it has sprung a leak right up near the nozzle end. I also need to unwind the whole hose as there’s a dribble down than end as well. A job for this afternoon. I will also be buying pjs for my other 2 grandkids now that I have the sizes. Even the 13yr old is happy for me to choose pjs for her. First up today though is a Les Mills Thrive class, get my lungs working, then I’m off out for a hour or so.
Have a great #Friday people, hope it’s a good one. Stay safe out there
