Hit a mile stone today So after nearly exactly 1 month I hit a milestone of 45mins constant exercise. That was 30mins on the treadmill and 15mins on the bike. I think I clocked a touch over 4.5 on the treadmill and 7 on the bike. I don't really trust the km measure on the machines, so I go...

Thanks for the info As a competitive freediver I am well aware of the risks of apnea and apnea related exercise. Breathold training is about the only training I have ever done. ;) I also get by blood sugar checked regularly - part of the quirks of oil and gas work is annual medicals. All...

Following on from an old thread about how "old" we all are - there were a number of comments (including my own) referring to the dangers of living a sedentary lifestyle. Well, Im a bad culprit for it. I work long hours when I work (12+/day) of which 99% of it is office based. When I get...
