I have been lazy. I need to keep myself nimble with stretching, warming up and warming down so i don't pull muscles so easily meaning i can't train 5 times a week. Instead I have been doing the equivalent of one because i have been going too hard in that on session then I have had to rest. The one hard session is normally 90 mins of Sunday league football that always seems to keep niggly injuries around. I probably shouldn't rest as much as i am though and run a little on the slight injuries to see if i build up a resistance and make it so i injure less easily. If that fails, I will just have to rest completely to heal, then build up slowly.
So the goal is to try and push myself to do the most I can do in a day that would leave me having enough to try again the next day without being too stiff. Hopefully I see results quickly with that, I am sick of making the weight I have and not being able to fling myself around! I want to let loose, but my legs are saying no!
Keep with it Ant, it should get better eventually.
Back when I still played footie I always had niggly injuries, just a part of playing.
When my legs were sore i would do ten mins on an exercise bike, get the old lactic acid moving.

Cheers for the advice, I just need to get my muscles up to football level in the first place and then try to maintain that level of muscular strength. ATM I am struggling to get my muscles there without them straining. I do think it is all in my lack of flexibility though, as i was obese for so long.
Going to go all out with yoga now. Just concentrate on feeling nimble with it, then separately, build my muscles from a more supple platform. I am going to use my own body weight to build muscle using the Freeletics routine or similar when I am ready.
My goal will be to be one strong, flexible, cat like mofo that can put hand on heart and say i could not be fitter nor more match practice prepared (park training plus lower league matches currently) to go to a host of semi pro footie clubs and get in as a goalkeeper, for around July 2015 (pre season). I will be 26 with no previous relevant experience at the levels I will be going for (currently playing tenth tier, getting my bearings, with an eye to push for 8th tier and above), so I would really have to just exude capability. If I am going to go in as prepared as I think I will be I won't have a confidence problem either.
In a spot where I just want to put my mind at ease that I went for it, and have no further regrets about not starting this physical overhaul process earlier. I think this is my last throw of the dice, but if it goes well I could feasibly be playing for the next 10 years at the level so not all is lost!
I just had a go at yoga now and I could not cross my legs properly, and the advice on this so called "beginners" video had me trying things that were impossible to do with my gangly immobile limbs! ha. However, I am very happy I saw just how inflexible I am which means I needn't wonder why i am getting strains easily. I also think I will see quick progress with these yoga stretches, so I am pumped.
I can't believe I am a Vegan that does yoga now. Just missing a foray into Buddhism for the clean sweep. Ha.

Come on bud, you've got a nice routine down. There's no point investing so much effort into working hard at the gym only to go and eat poorly. I know you know this; you just need a kick up the butt by the sounds of it!
Why don't you write down everything you eat today and post it here. No lies from you, no judgement from others yeh?

I think you're over doing it with the protein shakes.

Need to get this back on the go again. I have given it all back (and some). Made a deal with the Mrs. We both have a target for the end of August weight wise. If either of us fail, then we will not be doing a holiday this year. Thinking is if one does and the other one doesn't they should feel pretty bad! incentive!
03/01/2015 - 15st 9 3/4
10/01/2015 - 14st 13 1/4
17/01/2015 - 14st 9 1/2
24/01/2015 - 14st 8 3/4
06/04/2015 - 16st 0 1/2
My target is 13 stone, which is going to be a tough slog. Money saved on takeaways should pay for the holiday!

the wagon went over a bump a couple of months back
brother was ill, i went back to the rig and did a 4 week stint, which was meant to be 4 weeks of clean eating and going to the gym every day.
however, on day 2 i did something to my back, or just slept oddly on the high quality mattresses we use, so was unable to do the gym work.
i had to rely soley on food intake, which i did by eating salad, lots of salad, but not the salad most of us know, what is known on the rigs as "scottish salad", which is basically chips
i ate a lot of chips
and when i got home i found i'd been visited by the clothes shrinking fairy!!!!
so, i have joined a local golf club, and when i'm home again, i will be playing 3 times a week while the wife is at work, and hopefully, at about 1500 calories a round, and the walking up and down the rather hilly course, i shall once more get on track to fitting in that shirt!!
also, am bacdk on the rig again, but this time with no injuries, so i'm either in the gym or doing a Sean T exercise of one sort or another every night, and back to eating clean again
no weight checks, but i'll be making sure i fit back in my clothes again when i get home!!!
Keep up the good work fellow fatties!!!
Mick

Finished yesterday with a curry. We go again today
So far
Porridge & honey
Banana
Shreddies - normally would have a sandwich but didn't have time to get something more healthy & wanted to avoid a boots meal deal.
Planning on having chicken, sweet potato, salad & corn on the cob for tea.
