Re: Exercise and anxiety
Thanks guys that's a lot of useful info. I'll definitely look into those dumbbells and bench but not quite yet as we are behind with the rent
The plastic bottle is ok weight-wise (gets my arm aching) but with a plastic strap I can see that breaking and ending up causing myself injury. Do you guys do press ups/sit ups? I want to lose some more weight yet before press ups because I'm lifting more LOL.
I remember years ago a mate of mine was really into weight lifting. He had all the gear so I had a go but couldn't even raise the bar out of its holder?/brackets? But that was a period where all I lifted was pints of beer.
Thanks to you both, yeah the cycling I increased to every day rather than every other. 30 mins minimum, high resistance. Its when the sweat's pouring off me and I'm swearing that I know I'm doing it right. Sticking to the calorie limit too. Exercise does get addictive doesn't it.
