GunnerY2J Posted February 9, 2020 Report Share Posted February 9, 2020 A cycle ride after a long time. Personal best for distance covered broken and almost by double for a solo trip. Around 2200 calories burnt. The stat below is only for the return trip.For both ways, 100 kilometres missed by around 6.

GunnerY2J Posted February 9, 2020 Report Share Posted February 9, 2020 I need some sleeping help. Everytime, I do some heavy exercise, I can't sleep that night. (Maybe only after 4 or 5 am) Otherwise I regularly sleep at 10.30 pm. Even today, I have been wanting to sleep since afternoon, have been awake since 5.15 am today, have eaten well, my eyes are red now, legs are as tired as they could be and I still can't sleep. All I want is to have some well deserved heavy sleep after these. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So try exercising in the morning.. Edited February 10, 2020 by funnyadit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But doesn't matter, maybe it is more in effect if done at night. Everytime when done in excess.

Ne0 Posted February 10, 2020 Report Share Posted February 10, 2020 When my sleep schedule gets screwed up due to work/stress or whatever, whats worked for me is to sleep only when i'm completely sleepy, like i can't turn another page over, or watch another min of a tv show. Which also means, I go somedays with just 5-6 hours of sleep, but i make up for it in the 2+ hour cab ride on the way to office and back. Also, over a period of time, my body adapts itself and the rhythm comes back to regular. I've found that whenever I force myself to sleep in these situations, it always works counter productive and I end up staying far more awake. There were days when I've slept for 12+ hours and other days when I've slept for just over 5-6 hours, but on an average in a week, I'm sufficiently well rested. In short, I go along with whatever the body demands instead of fighting it ! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After doing only legs for 20 days, my stamina for other stuff actually has decreased, getting out of breath earlier than before while doing cardio workouts and other stretches.

GunnerY2J Posted February 21, 2020 Report Share Posted February 21, 2020 Any beginner tips and boxing bag workout videos ? Relatively weak upper body so need an exhausting one but doable for beginners with instructions as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bauji Posted March 1, 2020 Report Share Posted March 1, 2020 For the last couple of weeks I've started running on treadmill early morning(~5 AM), 2-3 times/week and every time after the workout my stomach starts aching, almost for the whole day. Running is not new for me and I've been doing this for many years, but in the evening hours. Also started again after a break of 7-8 months. So, not sure if this is because of the break or because I havnt eaten for 7-8 hours before the workout. Any suggestions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GunnerY2J Posted March 1, 2020 Report Share Posted March 1, 2020 (edited) @Bauji Must be you are eating something too early or wrong or milk. Stomach pain during running is very common but not afterwards. Edited March 1, 2020 by GunnerY2J Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
