Update from Creaky

I joined the group in Riverside. A nice group of people, then they went on break as they went to participate in the Renessaince (sp) Faire so the training stopped. Then I broke my right ankle riding my bike 10 weeks ago and just got back on my feet this past week.

I hope to get back to the ...

Medival Combat groups

Has anyone ever participated or is a member of a historical stage combat school or a medieval combat groups? They use padded weapons and train to fight battles, or do hand to hand combat drills, etc. I'm not sure how I started on this Internet search - I either saw something related to it on this ...

No S - success. The time after dinner is tough for me and I need to figure out why. I eat a good size dinner. Tonight was a grilled chicken sandwich from Wendys. a very large salad, small Wendy's chili. I thought that would be enough but it wasn't.

SG - 10 minutes. Felt good. I am up to 30 reps on ...

I walk at my morning break (15 mins) and 30 mins at lunch. I also walk my dogs for 25-30 min M, T, Th, and Friday, then twice a day on Sat and Sunday.

I do the shovelgloving M-F for 10 mins. I'm slowly increasing it each week. I've added pushups, lunges and squats.

Once I get a recumbent bike, I ...

Creaky's Update

Hi all,

I'm really enjoying the shovelgloving and it has helped me to start to do more resistant training, such as squats, lunges and pushups. I thought today on adding some functional exercises - I have a strap system that will let me do modified pullups.

SG has been the first resistance ...

Wed
No S - planned failure as Wedn night meal has been a splurge meal for me. I had a sub type sandwich and chips for dinner.
SG none. Wednesday is a late night for me. I may take the SG to work and do the SGing where no one can see me!
But a two pound gain for the week! Maybe too much on the ...

No S- Success to some extent or maybe a failure to a small extent. I didn't feel like eating my normal breakfast - I really should have eaten it. Maybe I would have felt better emotionally throughout the day as I was a pissed off person all day - not sure why. Luckily I can get off by myself at work ...

Splurges today
a Frosty at Wendy's with a healthy lunch - chicken sandwhich, ceasar salad and diet coke.

Dinner - lots of meat and frozen veggies. Usually I only have 4-6 ounces of meat at dinner, but tonight was considerably more.

SG - 9 minutes. Feels really good!

Walking: ~90 mins. I walk at work during breaks and 30 mins at lunch, then a 30-45 min ...

Hi mshuler61,

I'm new to No S but not to changing how I eat. I found No S two nights ago and jumped right into it, but I've had a year worth of practice in getting my eating in line. I was worried about losing my 10 and 3 pm and 7 pm snacks but I added the foods I'd eat in my snacks to my meals ...

No S - success.

I was worried that eliminating my 10 am and 3 pm snacks would be a problem, but I'm not hungry like I used to be at those times. Maybe it's because I eat a large satisfying meal at breakfast and lunch.

SG - another 7 minutes. I did it about 30 minusts dinner, a lighter one than ...

Creaky's Intro

Hi Everyone,

I found this site last night by searching for 'functional exercises', bought my hammer tonight and used it. It felt good to do some real exercise. I may be a bit sore tomorrow. I was only able to do 8 minutes with a 8 pound (10.5 with handle) hammer. I felt my form getting bad and ...

Glad to have found this site. Will try to do daily check-in. I'm doing both No S and shovelgloving. Love that shovelgloving!

This is what I will normally eat on a N-Day and this is what I've eaten on most days for past few months. Now I've just added my snacks to my regular meals.
