eeeya Posted October 17, 2014 Share Posted October 17, 2014 Everybody should do some kind of regular exercise. It doesnt matter if your training for a marathon or just started walking to the pub instead of catching a taxi. Share what you did today 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sirocco Posted October 17, 2014 Share Posted October 17, 2014 today I took a walk 6 kms, by the beach and I came by road. This allowed me to hop between jellyfish and count the cars and pick flowers along the road. I regularly of walking and swimming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cooked Posted October 17, 2014 Share Posted October 17, 2014 I walked to the market and back, mixed mortar and laid 40 breeze blocks. I washed my tools, and am now getting drunk. The concept of 'exercise' never entered into my way of life, I just work when I can. Picture from yesterday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Tolley Posted October 17, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted October 17, 2014 Got up early and did a 5k swim followed by a 50k bike ride and then a 20k run. Then I woke up all sweaty and realised it was a bad dream and rolled back over and slept a little more 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aussieroaming Posted October 17, 2014 Share Posted October 17, 2014 Treadmill...15km in the morning and 12 km in the afternoon. Walked all the way and it took me about 4 1/2 hours all up. Did it twice because I didn't do it yesterday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is quite a lot.. must have taken you quite a few hours. Three hours and fourteen minutes in the saddle to be exact. My sweet spot is around 50 km but yesterday it was overcast so I chose a longer route. I am pretty wiped out after my rides so I rest for two or three days between rides. The big climb was dirt but I came down by road and hit 60 kmh at one point. My brakes could probably do with a checkup after that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was recently back in the Netherlands and did some bike rides 30-60.. but that was not your kind of biking. I get you and your rest the same applies for me and weight lifting I do it with such an intensity that you can't do it every day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AnotherOneAmerican Posted October 18, 2014 Share Posted October 18, 2014 Hiked up the Pilgrim's Trail to Wat Doi Suthep and back. Gotta confess yesterday's cycling 45Km on the flat was a lot easier. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bkkjames Posted October 18, 2014 Share Posted October 18, 2014 chased my sons around funarium, shopping at villa, just back from the gym (legs and arms / shoulders), a little xbox next up with my 5 year old. Cook dinner in a bit, put my sons to bed later then thrown one into the mrs around 9pm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cycling on the flat is always easier.. last month in the Netherlands I did a lot of it and you can actually go on and on without getting real tired. Hiking up a trail is definitely more exhausting.. but I would like it more. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eeeya Posted October 18, 2014 Author Share Posted October 18, 2014 Mountain biked for two hours on mountain trails before risking my life on pavement for the 10 kilometer run back home. I can relate the feeling, I like to ride around Bang Brachao (Green lung of Bangkok) But to get there I have to peddle down Sukhumvit Rd and catch a small boat across.

The two have nothing to do with eachother.. you might still be used to eating the same amount as when you exercised a lot. Just a question of some research and lifestyle changes. Though if you think you can drink loads of alcohol and still not get fat.. too bad wont work for most of us. Never forget we all got different body types.. i need to do a lot to keep slim others don't has nothing to do with sports at an early age but all with bodytype.

Years ago bicycling in Wales kept smelling burning rubber just couldn't find it finally looked down and smoke coming from brake pads of course the hill was a 20 percent grade.

Disc brakes so no burning rubber. I’ll see how they do today, and if they seem okay I’ll let them go for a while longer. I do believe in preventative maintenance though. I have never had a breakdown out on the trails and I plan on keeping it that way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
