    I'm fanatical about fitness and strict on my nutrition. Because of this I hover at around 210 lb's lean. A few years back some friends commented on how i was big but not "fit" since then I've taken to regular running and maintained the size as well (through proper diet). :p

    Just in the next few weeks alone I've got a 26 mile mountain marathon in wales, a 10k race, an (attempted) run up snowdon then a few weeks after that the Three peaks challenge. Might take a couple of months of then to focus on the weights (the cardio decreases my strength) then its half marathon season.

    My girlfriends also really into her fitness and also does Tae Kwon do. Shes won a few golds

    I say fair play to anyone who does it and sticks to it. It pays off in the long run. Aside from sickness and holidays I've been excercising a minimum of three times a week since I was 20

    Oh the reason for all this? I was diagnose with a "correctable" heart condition at 19 which really helped reinforce the importance of diet and excercise. I had corrective surgery last year in fact the week after passing my MCP. I now feel ggggrrrreeeaaaaaaat8)

    Well the gym is now calling me. I've got a start date for new work as 13/05/08. I handed in my 4 week notice today and current work put me on gardening leave.

    All excuses not to go to the gym blown out of the water.

    Does anyone know a decent site for a starters workout routine. I aint been properly in about 2years.

    I actually worked out today... new recreation center opened up near our house... we took the kids swimming, then they all went home while I ran on the treadmill and rode the e-bike.
