Just goofing around, but clearly an issue a lot of people feel strongly about because this video has been a big hit on YouTube! Why is it that some runners totally blank you when you offer them a friendly greeting? Just seems so mean...

Well last night was fun, I finally decided to get back onto the ice playing hockey after such a long time off it. Talking to friends last night it was worked out that I'd been out of the game for around 2 years, but god did it feel good to be back on it!
I was worried that after 2 years of not skating I'd be like bambi on ice but after stepping onto the ice I felt like I'd never been off it. My shots on the other hand, you could tell I'd not been playing for such a long time!

Any fitness instructor who teaches one of the Les Mills programmes - I teach Body Combat and Body Balance - has to go on what we call a Quarterly workshop every 3 months to see the new music and the new moves.
These are usually held in fitness clubs and it feels just like a load of instructors attending a class just like a participant would. Except our Instructor is a Master Trainer.

Christmas marked three months since my knee operation, which meant I was finally allowed to move from gentle physio back into normal exercise routines.
At the beginning of January I started to practice yoga again 3-4 times a week.
It was a bit of a shock to find how much my body had deteriorated during those short few months off. Everything seemed so much harder - my upper body and core strength were almost non-existent!

I've been an avid reader of health websites for some time and it seems it's all about the core, is that an apple core??
All the major magazines are covering core muscle exercises which are supposed to be better in the long run for all types of sports, the only problem is my core is a large round blob of beer, chocolate and the major fatty food groups.
A popular publication is covering an exercise by the Royal Marines, the name is an expletive probably used at the end of the exercise....b*****d.

Well I've finally got myself back to running after being ill, the pitfall of having a child is that they bring all kinds of diseases back to the home. Diseases the adult body is not designed for, so much so I felt like I was on deaths door. My Mrs would say I was feeling very sorry for myself, but who wouldn't? I've got an incurable disease that only is attacking my body!

When I was invited to try out the sport of ‘bouldering’ at a newly opened centre in south west London, my mind’s eye saw Fred Flintstone running around a cartoon quarry throwing massive rocks at Barney Rubble.

Grappling with half naked men and being choked half to death is not exactly how I had envisaged spending Valentines night.
