Same here. I got a 23.9% when I did my induction at the new gym. Piffle!

Well after having 3 months of using the old back-garden weights regularly, running and eating properly with the aim for getting fit for holiday...which I managed, I am now back from holiday and it's freezing outside and gets dark at some stupidly early hour which puts a bit of a kibosh on the outdoor gym action, but now I've had a month off (including hols ) am keen to get back to the gym!
Sooo...anyone been to the gyms around Liverpool St? Do any of them have a decent range of free weights or are they all uber-cardio focused? Going to have a wander round but if anyone has any recommendations to save me a bit of time that'd be much appreciated!

New gym program is working for me better than expected.. Training each muscle group twice a week as hard yet seem to take a lot less time than split sessions. The key is Superseting so as soon as a set ends I start the next, making sure the next piece of equipment is close to hand.

Supersets rock - but they don't half kill. My favourite superset, is a straightbar bench followed by flies.
Another good one is deadlifts followed by cleans.

My training schedule right now is just the pole due to me getting ready to teach it. It's a cv workout as well as strength training so have covered all the bases anyway. Seems to be doing me good anyway - I've put an inch on my bust and lost one on my waist!
My PT client wants to do outdoor running so will be starting that soon.
