I have been meaning for a time to start building some regular exercise back into my life but keep finding excuses such as spraining my ankle, building work etc

Count me in on the filter for sure.
I think I'll actually do the same, maybe an e-training buddy will help with morale on those tough days?

Oli & I have just joined the Gym... some more support is never a bad thing!

I'm aiming to improve my general fitness, and losing htat annoying inch off my waist would be good!

that is basically what I am planning to do I have belonged to gyms and not made it so decided I need to motivate myself first. If I am doing the exercise and need to join a gym there is one I used to belong to on my way to and from work. Though there is also one at the sports centre where I plan to go swimming.

so do you want to be on the filter?

added. One thing I want to do is some rambling at the weekend and was thinking of arranging weekends where we meet up at a pub somewhere do a walk, have a pub lunch or similar then head home again.

Would this be something people would be interested in?

How about cycling to work 9 miles is enough of a distance to make it worthwhile?

i would be up for the rambling. keep me posted on that please

Well I certainly wish you luck. It might kick my arse a bit to get into gear as well..

[damianobf]

so I take it you want to see mine and rob's abortive attempts then :)

[absintheskiss]

I'll show you mine if you show me yours.

So yep. Count me in.

Count me in. I used to run marathons before I got old but I still have to do a fair bit of exercise to stop athritus, buggered back & shoulder etc finally seizing me up. Start off with lots of stretching bending & twisting & low level aerobic exercise (walking) before you try anything too strenuous.
