I did BMF for two years - absolutely loved it! Best thing I've done for all-round fitness. I only gave it up because I moved away and there ain't no BMF where I am now :(



Sounds like a business opportunity there Gubernatrix ;-)


Not for Newquay, I don't think. Never mind.



Newquay would be great...press ups on the beach and running in the freezing sea!

Quick update... minor setback at present as I had to have a wisdom tooth extracted on Wednesday, unfortunately my hopes of springing back to normal by Friday were a little ambitious! My face resembles a football.. very frustrating indeed... so im controlling my diet more than normal and getting in lots of water, and hoping to be back in the gym on Monday.

Talk about frustrating... :-(

They key thing here is you were due to do 36 gym sessions in 12 weeks. A session or 2 missed for valid reasons isnt going to make that much difference.
Keep it up.

Last time I was at the dentist there was some building work going on next door. I was sitting in the waiting room listening to some heavy duty jackhammer noises. Now I knew it wasnt coming from the surgery, but all the same it made my feel a bit queasy!

OK... first morning back in the gym after the tooth extraction and jeez it was hard... I think my diet's been poor - too few cals over the last week because eating has been a struggle, and it really told - the chinups/dips were tough i felt I had no energy... but the rest went OK - update below:

Note I was using a different gym and the weight stack on the chinup machine was different so not sure how it compares to previous..

<B>Excersize /Weight /Reps/(difference to last week)</B>

Dips /13 /11(-1 rep)
Chinups /13 /10 (-2 reps)
Dips /13/8 (-1 rep)
Chinups /13/8 (-1 rep)
Dips /13/6 (same)
Chinups /13/6 (same)
Dumbell incline chest press /10/10 (+2KG, -2 Reps)
Prone Row /6 /12(same)
Dumbell Incline chest press /10/9(same)
Prone Row /6 /10(same)
Dumbell bicep curl /7/11(+1 rep)
Overhead tricep extension /10 /11 (+1 rep)
Dumbell bicep curl /7/9 (same)
Overhead tricep extension /10/9 (+1 rep)

All up i feel i had a good enough workout but energy was really low and i felt tired, hopefully that will improve as i get back in the swing of things this week.

Ill be having a programme change after this week so will keep you posted...
