Scottish here too.. 58 days straight edge..!!

Could strangle for a StrongBow though!

Born in Dunbartonshire, mums scottish, but we moved to england when I was 7 so english accent. I could just go a pint, but for the next 45 minutes I have lunges,squats,kick backs,calf raises,planks,side planks,crunshes to look forward too. All fun!

7 months without a drink. Kind of made me feel a lot better about myself actually. Tried a bottle of Kopparburg other day and really couldnt be arrsed with it. Its definately helped with my fitness tho im sure a drink now and then actually is ok.

I'm still drinking normally with the lads, just not at home or in the day and stuff. Hasn't really stopped my fitness. You'll be doing plenty of it when your in anyway and maintaining the same fitness levels

Yeah I know matey, Just something other to look forward to!

On a similar note, any idea what we are allowed to do recreation wise at basic.....Pub etc?

Run tonight methinks. Might go for my usual 3-4 mile circuit

im well gutted ive got adsc in about a month and gone and court swine flu still need to knock bwt 30 seconds off my run to get para reg has anyone got any advice? (by the way its hard as f*** to run with flu so any training involving running is not good advice.)

i dont think any training is a good idea mate as it will take the energy your immune system needs to be at its strongest, obviously im no doctor but id say rest up completely until your flu symptoms have gone then hit it as hard as you can.

thanks, i just hope ill be able to pull a sub 9 out the bag on the day.

i knocked 2 minutes off my time in pre-selection mate, the environment at ADSC will push you to go faster im sure, from what the Dr's say its usually a week for that sh!t to clear so you'll be training again by next wednesday, just take the opportunity to take it easy for a week ;)

Get well soon buddy and come back stronger :D

I've had it over the end of last week, I didn't go running at all - just rest and get over it ASAP. It's only a flu you'll be better in a few days or less, then crack on with the training

okay been training for like 3 months now, eating healthy going to the gym watching the fit blokes etc etc etc


but

in two weeks i go to the nurture day (after getting a 67 on my B.A.R.B - wich i thinks not to bad ) and i still cant run 1.5 miles with out dieing, do more than 1 push up or any pull ups, sit ups tho i can do

so any thing that u guys done or hints and tipe that u can help me with that would be appreciated



thanks

Is your training progressive or are you just doing the same stuff week in week out?

Post a detailed training journal highlighting what you're actually doing for a given week.

RAF Regt?
