I competed in my first novice comp over the weekend and had a blast, didn't realise how fun they day was going to be.
Now I've tasted it, I wouldnt mind trying some real comps and as I've never really looked into it, there are obviously a lot of federations to choose from.

Does this woman compete in womens events or is this a transgender thing? Looking at her Instagram I can see why the airline may have thought she...
Thinking of trying a comp at the end of the year just for the hell of it and I don't know why really, just think it would be cool to say I did it. Won't come close to being on the podium but guess it gives you a goal to work towards and you can get a total marked off then go try and beat it...
I work and office job, I workout before work and sit all day. I was thinking of heading out for a walk on my lunch breaks and looking for ideas to eat on the walk.
Currently for lunch I eat baked chicken and steamed veggies (birdseyes ones) and eat at my desk. I need the microwave and bowls and...

I get an hour in the morning to workout and I'd love to get lean, get strong, get fit (as anyone would) but given time, age and recovery, is it actually possible to do all things?
I love strength training, I love sprinting, I love long distance running, I love HIIT workouts. Is it possible to...

Doesn't say what happens if you eat more than that? I have 6 per day!
Apparently arguing whose sport was tougher.

My work gym has a total of 177.5kg in plates and I'm close to deadlifting the lot and want to progress further. I can either join a gym or pay for some more weight, work won't pay unfortunately so looking at adding 2 extra 20kg plates. Cheapest I have found is $70 per plate.

If I'm going to come clean, this is a major issue for me and no doubt it's 99.99% of the reason I fail reaching my goals.
If I'm training and have a plan, my diet is is great, I plan my meals, I stick to the plan and results slowly follow.
Recently I did an injury whilst lifting, I convinced...

Last year I trained for the Melbourne Marathon and have to say now that I did actually enjoy running, whilst I have never been good at it and being larger, I was slow but enjoyed getting out there hitting the pavement/grass. The issue I had was my weight being over 100kg's.
Since that venture...

A couple month before Christmas I started to lift again and for once sticking to it. Anyway I had noticed my bicep felt dull and achy and after a look around on google it seems the deadlift is more than likely the issue.

Do you lift, your diet is spot on, what do you do for fat loss workouts?
I've always trained to do tough mudder and even a marathon this year but never dropped any fat. I actually ate more.
Next year I am throwing these events in the bin to purely focus on fat loss. What workouts do you do in...

I just completed my 3rd Tough Mudder and had a ball doing it and have decided (hopefully) that I can stay Tough Mudder fit majority of the time. In the past I have trained up for TM only to get back into strength training and well I struggle to get back into running and fitness again.
