I'm keen to start on this and get down to 12% bodyfat... is there anywhere I can get recipes or advice on what's allowed and what's banned?
Yoghurt for instance... in?? or out??
What's idave?
Did we ever see after pic of mol?!
I had a salad for lunch that idave would be proud of. Except for the cheese. And the oatcakes after it as i was still hungry. HTH 😀

Slow day in Yeti world, Eh ?.
😉
Hang on.....
Oh, and Yoghurt is out
I had a whole week of eating french bread, jam and croissants when I went to les arc (catered chalet) for a week. Then got back on the diet (loosely) and dropped to 67kg!
What's that all about?
Also worth a read is the "4 hour body " which seems to be quite similar. I've lost well over a stone on it since March, despite doing NO exercise due to my rubbish knee.
TSY - you could maybe just email me....
Or is this some marketing campaign on my behalf that I don't know about?
Why is your company named after some rubbish forks ? 😮
Someone said they missed this topic so I thought I'd start it up again.
I had my bodyfat measured with calipers the other day and I'm disputing the results because it said 18%. They only took one set of pinches which is why I'm dismissing it... that and I'm skinny as hell.
If it's right though then I've got about 5kg to lose...
iGave up.
it takes about 300 uses of skin fold calipers before someone is proficient.
Can't some PS whiz just [i]produce[/i] the after picture ?.
Great work Jamie... you seen Darcy's cinema thread?
iDave... the guy only did one pinch... I don't think he was proficient at all. Not sure what to do now though... iDiet and try and achieve something that is potentially impossible, or continue as I am... happy that I'm lean (or deluded)...
lol not deluded dude, even i... quite possibly STW's straightest and most sensible forum member wanted to stroke your muscles 2 weekends ago.
and to add to what iDave said, there are about 200 different ways of doing skin fold measurements. don't believe the hype.

Phil - you only had to ask 😉
In other news... I cycled 150 miles on Saturday. Eclipsing my previous milage total by 50%. Does anyone know of any 200 miler audaxs/ sportives?
Jamie... when are you gonna ride with me?

I get emails from ukcyclingevents.co.uk but to be fair, their sportives are more around the 100 miler type.
Does anyone else fancy a 200 miler... possibly going to be next year now, although it could always run into the dark?
Least that way nobody will be able to see how see through my pink lycra is, or how large my muffin top is.
Jamie... when are you gonna ride with me?
Usual jokes aside, I tore a muscle in my back 5 weeks ago while deadlifting. The net result has been no weight work, limited cardio and even driving has had to been reduced. Slowly coming back into the fold now, but 100milers, unfortunately are a little way off yet.
.....worse of all I have a belly like Darcy now....and it was on it's way out.
Depends on which 200 miles you have in mind?
worse of all I have a belly like Darcy now
🙁
blah blah blah blah, yadda yadda yadda, now you're poking fun at my weight problem again.
deadly only pretends to be hefty. I suspect he's as lean as one of davidtaylforth's dry stone walls.
Open to suggestions iDave... the usual relaxed riding philosophy is to be observed... we stop for a fry up and at least one round of cream teas.
Saturday saw 2 of the crew having a nap in a pub at tea time... I'd hope it doesn't have to be just about energy gels.
Sausages.
pretends
I wish.
I got a £100 wetsuit voucher from some friends for my 40th and mrs deadly's advised me to wait a while and do some training before buying one 😳
climbing on friday made me feel like the fattest person in surrey... i dont even live in surrey.
gym after work today 🙁
Darcy, do you not not realise that necrophilia is wrong?
What are you talking about Jimmers?
yay, everyones on this thread from before. except mol. where's he gone?
Can the 200miler be in a location thats suitable for us scottish folk, as i'm sure mustard and druidh would be keen too. What about something half way between us? Ending in the dark is cool too, as long as it doesn't take 18hours again - my new flat mate isn't ready to see me coming home at 2am in lyrca yet! oh, i know, there's the snow roads audax next year! 8)
I wish.
Discovering the truth is a huge incentive to get down to Brizzle.
The 200 miler could be based around the Cyclescreen film festival...and incorporate a route over the bridge into Wales, up around the mouth of the Severn towards Gloucester, Cheltenham and back down towards Brizzle.
EDIT: Ooops, obviously, this might not work for the Scotchlanders. Though I'm not sure I can carry my bulk around for 200 miles by the middle of August 😕
Followed by a sleep in a cinema?
Followed by a sleep in a cinema?
Maybe we just go for a 100 miler?
i dont have/cant ride a roadbike. i'd be in for an 'off road jaunt on an all-terrain pedalcycle' but all this talk of roads and distances over 20miles is making me feel queasy
[i]yay, everyones on this thread from before[/i]
Yeap. Between us we must have the leanest, fitest, fastest allround bestest.... typing fingers anywhere on planet Earth / Yeti.
😉
Hmmm...roadie stuff one day, off-road stuff t'other?
fa[s]s[/s][i][b]t[/i][/b]test
You talkING TO ME Solo? 🙂
100 miler sounds a lot more reasonable if we're going to be anything like sociable in the evening.
Scotserlangers... get a cheap flight down??
oh mememe, i live near Brizzle. can i come along.
Solo... I'm a gobshyte if that's what you mean?
Road one day... off the next... pace can be dictated by flabby bellies, hangovers and tired muscles.
Fry up and cream tea etiquette obviously.
can i come along.
It's a Brizzley Bear Sexy Partee...anyone's welcome. 🙂
I'm up for a 100miler.. how about a trip over to wales (usk)?
dgoab> welcome to stay at mine if you did decide you wanted 'rollapluze' and ride 200 miles
Hmmm. I need to drop 18lbs by the end of August, otherwise I will be the fat one who gets picked on.
just found out when Cyclescreen is and i'm away that weekend
I am waiting to find out if that is the weekend my bro is over from Athens, as that may preclude me.....well that and if my back is still knackered. Be nice to see some of the vagabonds from here though.

Whoa there !.
Chill.
No badness intended.
Peace.
Solo... I take gobshyte to be a compliment of the highest order 🙂
So is this 'on' then?
Sorry Solo...my smiley meant I was just taking the willy! x
WHat about DaveI? Can he make it?
my back is constantly knackered jamie, it doesnt stop me demanding yeti drives me to bristol for a film and embarrassingly accidently booking a single room together in the YMCA.

If you can go climbing, then your back is not knackered, me old china.
No worries. Its me.
Life at the mo is a maelstrom of shit.
Laters.
Solo... how about a hug before you go?
Solo... how about a hug before you go?
Yeah. Why not get one of the most insincere hugs on the market.
He dishes them out like candy......
TSY I will do a 200 mile with you next year. I always fancied a go on the longest day to do it all in daylight?
Cant make it to Bristol as it is miles away.
You coming JY? You can see the Bristol Chinstroker 🙂
Nice one Junky... My birthday is on the 24th of June.. so pretty close to the summer solstice, book out calendars now I say.
My road bike lives in Geneva - you could all come here and we could do a circuit of Lake Geneva - it's about 190km, followed by riding up a big hill. Then we could eat £8 kebabs.
DD there is a manchester northern ride with TJ same weekend and I am organising the route [probably anyway]so I cant travel to Bristol for it...more notice and I could have sorted it Sorry
TSY I will e-mail you re 200 miler
How long are you planning on being out there iDave?
Also.. if calipers aren't reliable and the scales aren't... how can I find out how skinny I'm not?
Ah, no worries JY...another time. I really must make it up north for one of the Manchester Massive rides one day...they never seem to fall on a free weekend. 🙁

Find somewhere with a [url= http://www.bodpodlondon.com/ ]Bod Pod[/url].
Looks expensive Jamie... can't I stick with the tape measure calculation I found that puts me at under 12%?
personally i'd forget about %
you're either as lean as you want to be or you're not
stop your 'programme', whatever it is, when you're as lean as you want to be
I'm out in Geneva on and off indefinitely
TSY YGM
DD i can accommodate if you do come up North ...not in a Phil sex party or bromance way though.
I ain't coming unless there are strings attached JY. 🙂
what are the strings attached to?
