Concept2 Forum

I work 12 hour shifts and so sometimes rowing between 20:00 and 22:00 is the only way I can fit in a session. I try not to do it too often though, and stick to steady state sessions. So long as I get my metres in the Concept2 log book before I go to bed, it doesn't normally affect my sleep.

Paulo: Congratulations on your weight loss. In 8 months you have lost about 7 pounds Preambe. I'm from Italy. English in *not* my native tongue. 7 pounds? Not so. From 2014 december to 2015 december I lost average 1Kg (2.2 pounds) a month. Eventually I became so fit that to lose weight is not easy ...

I wish I had done this mysel...

I realised a long time ago that it's all very well counting how many calories you burn off in the gym, but it's pointless if you don't measure the other side of the equation, i.e. what you eat, or at least cut ou...

Here I am, a 51 and a half year old, 166cm tall man, weighing 101.4 kg as of this morning. That makes my BMI 36.8! For literally years now, I've been telling myself that I need to lose weight, that I "must do something about it". Hearing about several people around my age developing serious health p...

Apologies for the delay in replying. Pure Gym has Skiergs, but David Lloyd apparently doesn't.

Does anyone know of anywhere in Leeds (West Yorkshire) or the surrounding area, that has Ski Ergs?

I've looked at the websites of every gym I can think of in the area without success.
