Hey RS & FB!!!!!

[xxxkazxxx]

Been a long time! In which i fell completely off the wagon. Was in a car accident & broke my collar bone. Whilst waiting for it to completely heel I put on 6kg & lost all incentive. Its been almost 15 months & only recently has my shoulder not given me grief! So i'm joining the gym next week & really want to get back on track. Im just not sure if i should get stuck into the weights, or concentrate more on cardio & light weights untill i lose the extra kilo's? Any ideas? My main concern right now is just getting these kilo's off me!

Great to see you back!

I'd say if your main focus is to shed some weight, I'd concentrate on getting that cardio in, and diet in check. However, that doesn't mean you can't hit the weights hard and heavy if that's what you want to do as well!

Stick around awhile!

Thanks FB!

I plan on spending my computer time reading around this site with Tuna in hand rather than wine in hand on FaceBook!

I could come up with half a dozen excuses, but i'm over excuses myself so i'll be stuffed if anyone else cares *LOL*

I went in and got the gym application form today & got goosebumps. Excitement goosebumps. Will keep you posted. Not looking forward to the days following first quad workout. The gym is up two flights of stairs. OWW!!

It depends but right when you wake up and after a workout is what I do.

Well just a quick report back from first day back in the gym!

I must have lost bone density or something, cause even lifting the lighter weights my elbows shook & it was like my joints were going to collapse. My muscles felt like i could lift heavier than i was, but my joints just wanted to give way. :dunno:

Iv'e lost 4kg. Yay! But I have to admit, I havn't been as strict as I should. :drunk:

My shoulders are outgrowing everything else as usual. Wish all that growth would go to my non-existant calves! Should I back off working the shoulders altogether? Or just drop the weight?
