I was thinking something like this:

As a result of discussions between several Fishbowl members, it has been decided to create this thread. This thread is meant to provide anyone and everyone with an opportunity to record their daily/weekly physical activities. Whether you've walked to the shop or done a marathon; whether you've lifted your child onto your shoulders or lifted weights, your physical activity can be recorded and monitored by yourself and others.

This thread provides a friendly, positive and encoruaging forum for those looking for that extra motivation. Additionally, such a thread could, if the individual wanted, alow for a level of accountability. If you say you're going to do this (actually write it for all to see) you're more likely to actually do it.

what to call the thread?

Just do it!
Thinking healthy.

suggestions? thoughts?

...Iike this thread, talking about fitness can really help everyone.

:)


Look, we could keep this thread or start a new one just for logging in our daily/weekly efforts. It doesn't hav to be full on but a visual reminder (when we check it) of how much effort we are putting in. Just an idea. Sometimes just seeing how much or how little we do is all the motivation one needs.




seriously.... what you've just outlined here...


www.fitocracy.com

just check it out.

LOL Really? I'll check it out then...




EDIT: Just tried to 'request an invite' and it came up with a window saying: 'we will let you know when we are open to the public' ???

I'll try again tomorrow.

Maybe our expert fitness guru Rad can even make us our own group.

I've signed up and checked out your profile, Rad Ranga. I'm under Matty8. I spent 10 minutes or so trying to get accustomed to whats what and I'm still trying to get my head around it. Strangely, I try and add a profile picture (a crazy pic my daughter took a while back) and I get logged out immediately...weird. Not going to give up that easily. I think there might be some issues with what I'm running; I had to go through Google Chrome to sign up originally. Going out for a run shortly (when the weather cools here somewhat...36 today!) and I'll get on and log the details.

Cheers for the link btw.

As I said in the BB, mate, good to hear everything's going to be okay.

My training started today:

1 lap = 533m


Did 3 laps running, then 1 lap walk, then 1 lap run then finished with 1 lap walk.

TOTAL: 2.1km running / 1km walk

Not going to win any marathons yet...but a start. Will continue this format for the first week to iron out the kinks.
I'm keeping times too.

You know my thoughts on tennis, Bainsy. Looking forward to getting back into it later this year.

@ Brooksy, yes mate, Perth, WA. Why, what did I say that gave it away? Actually, I'm sure I've posted it somewhere...
