This week I timed it so meals fell roughly after.
IME this is the key. Plus exercising first thing without eating.
Jamie, i notice you've stopped tracking your stuff on Fitocracy. I've almost got double your points now!

At the moment this is impossible for me. I am waking up with just enough energy to make my eggs. Work in progress.

As usual, I get bored with it after a while.
🙁 we should start a STW group - hype up the competition between Mol and DGOAB
It's all about just getting out and doing it... telling your stomach to STFU!
It's amazing how quickly the gnawing hunger goes away once you actually start moving. 20miles in under an hour on the bike yesterday morning... probably wouldn't fancu speed intervals though.
What is fitocracy?

I know that, and it will happen. Just not currently, so there.
feed your addiction TSY... in fact you can track your addiction online and compare it to others
I've only started doing it since iDave gave me a talking to about it.
I used to do fasted cardio all the time, but switching the body from carb powah to fat powah needs a bit of adjusting before I start throwing that at it.

It won't load at the moment apart for it's address thingy which says "get addiccted..."
Wouldn't it be like an AA meeting in a pub?

Puzzled. Doing what? I've never heard of fitocracy
Not eating pre morning session. You gave me a look and said "what's wrong with feeling hungry?"
I ditched the morning banana this week and within 5-10 mins of exercising I stop feeling hungry anyway.

I really like it. You get points for the exercises you do, and it's a great way to track progress. Follow this invite to sign up: http://ftcy.co/oQ18Wj
Cheers Capt... do you know if I can upload stuff from Garmin Connect?
dunno - you can sync with run keeper if you use that. Ask in the forum (warning the search function doesn't work!). There are advanced options for logging stuff like terrain and HR - very useful and usually get you extra points.
don't forget to follow Jamie (aka Jaaaaaaaamie)
So, M_W_A is The Southern Yeti. Who is Eee?
shhhhhhhhhh!
everyone needs to know, you're exercising in public now mr 'level 9 in one day'
Eee?
That's me. 🙂
I had a quick look then my head started hurt trying to find a garmin connect option.
I think that's what keeps doing it for me, Ian. No Garmin integration.
This reckons you can import GC data into runkeeper, you can then add that to Fitocracy.
Still hassle tho 😉
aboslutely
maybe give yourself a few extra points if you do it 🙂
Just come on STW and challenge people, Capt. I believe Molgrips just threw the gauntlet at DGOAB a few pages back, so a precedent has been set.
I'm not competitive in anyway. Well, apart from with myself.
Likewise, and to my detriment sometimes.
For example, earlier I was just going for a easy slow paced run, but was following a course on my 310XT and ended up racing my previous time 😀
who won?
Awaiting a judges decision. Personally, I think old me is a prick who cheated.
Mol, Cardiff is too far away. Hows about near idave or TSY instead?
I'm in full compression gear after riding with the fast boyz; 36kph uphill! 😡
Just thought I'd mention that I've given up fruit, used to eat loads of it particularly berries.
Blood sugar levels are hugely different - no longer get that 'if I don't eat I'll pass out' feeling. In fact I can even go without lunch on a ride. 🙂
Not on the iDave eating plan as such, just incorporating parts of it.
... as you were. 🙂
I really want to try compression stuff, but am just too tight. Hoping a soak in the bath is just as good.
Oh and my god news is nowt to do with being preggers (that would be worst news of my life). I got a good enough score on the ramp rest to get 1-2-1 coaching. So Molly's arse is going to be well and truely kicked! 8)
Glitchy end of page bumpy
🙄
Has anyone, well apart from Mustard, noticed that since the threads got changed to 35 posts per page, it's a double, treble?, glitch, as opposed to the oh so amusing single?
I asssumed it was as sublimal message that the thread had gone too far off topic!
I thought it would be even funnier if dgoab beat molgrips when prégnant. Mrs mugsy dropped one of my Sheffrec club mates when 6 months gone and her on an old mtb and him on his roadbike....
My 6th day of being idave compliant today...just to jeep it slightly on topic.
Capt - that's 1 week of exercise to get me to level 10.
but am just too tight
You sure you've not got compression gear on already?
Mugsys mate, 24 mins fleas for my ten miles, not five, don't be silly. I will look at fitocracy an d also consider the stw competitive thing. And DG will not beat me, neither will yeti.
Also, the reason I don't exercise first thing is not hunger, it's my brain still being asleep. It's too unpleasant and causes way too much stress for the whole day.
I thought the challenge was between you and Dirty?
What do you want to beat me at?
And DG will not beat me, neither will yeti.
Woo Hoo! Molly's going to beat a girlie and then DGOAB!!!! 😛
Soaking in a hot bath has the opposite effect of compression clothing as I understand it. A hot bath causes vasodilation.
I expect Molly is already preparing his pre and post ride sugar intake, suuugggaaaarrrr... my precious!
Mugsys mate, 24 mins fleas for my ten miles
Damn, son! 10 miles at 25mph? I think my legs would fall off after the first mile.
crikey that's going some.
I stood on the scales this morning and it showed 69kg, so I put my bike down.
