Just been doing cardio past week as trying to slim down

Do my core work (push ups, squats and sit ups) followed by some stretches

I then just run on the treadmill. Started at just doing 10 minutes and have got all the way up to 23 minutes now. Going to keep doing cardio till I get down to around 90 KG and then I'll start doing weights again.

If you are planning on getting back into weight lifting and are trying to slim down, you can lift weights with less rest between sets to burn extra calories and then do a bit of cardio as it will help you build muscle as well.

That way you don't have to wait to start lifting again.

Yup, can stick to doing heavy compound lifts to compliment your cardio and lose more!

Isolation exercises for size and compound exercises for pure strength as well as helping shed a few pounds.

Combination of the two followed by core workout and cardio is perfect.

Hahaha didnt even think about kilos vs pounds here. Good catch.

I get tickets every once in awhile and go out to the game, I live 1.5-2 miles from Fenway so it's convenient. Don't avidly follow them tough.

You follow baseball or any other American sports?

Briefly tried to follow it as a pre teen/ early teenager but it was pretty much impossible due to ny having 4 TV channels and it being on at silky hours in the morning. Then I think it got canned, I can't remember.

For some reason I decided I was a Red Sox fan at the time, no idea why

Haha well in. The Sox have a pretty strong following throughout the country actually, no one is sure why. Guess they just have that allure.

You aren't missing too much. Baseball is wicked boring.

The main thing I like about America is women dig sports! Goodness knows what's wrong with UK women, but most American chicks I've met like sports!

Fairly accurate. Especially in this part of the country. If they don't like one of the patriots, bruins or Red Sox it's an anomaly. Most everyone I know likes some sort of sport.

The girl I knew, just a friend, was a big Bears and cubs fan. Went to the games with no male prompting either! And was stunning as [Poor language removed]!

I need to find my self an American bird, clearly!
