It's been 4 months since I last weighed in on this site. Back then, I was midway through a program to run 10 km. I finished that program successfully just before the summer break. Then things went downhill from there.
The gym next to my house suddenly closed with no explanation. One day I turned up to find bailiffs loading the equipment onto trucks. So I had to join a new gym about a mile further away. Then I have also been super busy at work, so I've only managed to get to the gym once a week on average during the summer.
The upshot of that is my weight is back up. Pretty much exactly where it was a year ago. So we have to start all over again.
From this week, I am following the Starting Strength program by Mark Reppetoe (see the book on Amazon). Even though I've gained back the weight, I have also gained a huge amount of muscle. I'm so much stronger and fitter than I was last year. So I should put that strength to good use to cut the fat back down decisively.
