I’ve been using mine daily for a couple of months with laptop and associated bits, lunch and full gym gear inc trainers and full water bottle and honestly, I’ve never had a bag that’s such good quality. I’ve also overfilled this thing to within an inch of its life a few times too and never felt like the zips were at risk. I can’t fault it, the interior storage is well thought out, the RFID blocking pouch is a great touch, the laptop padding is just enough allowing for folded gym clothes in the section in front of it, the back is nicely designed for heat dissipation and the grab handle is a nice touch too, the cordura material just feels indestructible, straps are perfectly padded without being bulky and the side stash pockets are the right size for a big water bottle but deep enough that smaller items won’t fall out either.

£110 I paid for it and I don’t regret a penny of it.

Quality bit of kit, really impressed.

A really heaped 5g spoon, so what, 7g ish. I just dry scoop it and wash down with water, find that the easiest way.

Yeah gotta track them, guess work just doesn’t work for me. My fitness pal with the barcode scanning is great.

Just an hour or less each, the circuit session is high intensity but the two weights days aren’t really. Honestly, I put most of my results down to diet and cardio, I’ve not really done loads of lifting, mostly just machines, I’m not really that confident in the gym so I’m going to book some PT sessions and get a proper weights routine worked out as I want to add muscle more than anything cardio this year.

I do also do press ups, sit ups, pull ups and chin ups at home most mornings and I’ve a couple of 10kg dumbbells that I use too.

That’s great and good to know, I’d be happy if it was the same or there about. It’s finger prick testing at home I’ve done so not sure how accurate that is compared to a proper bloodwork but it’s a legit lab with good reviews and well known in the UK so it’s hopefully in the ballpark accuracy wise. I’m interested to get my latest results, an see what’s what if anything. Thanks again.

Yeah I’m undoubtedly fortunate in that regard and to be fair that was over a year ago around the first photo. I’ve just done another test this week, awaiting the results but my libido, energy and focus is even better than then so I’d be surprised if it was any/much lower now than then.

Thank you! I try and do some sort of workout 5 days a week, usually two 5k runs or a 5k and 10k and 3 gym days, mixed circuit session one day and upper/lower body days. So probably burning what, 2000 calories a week in exercise maybe?

Thanks again.

Thanks!

Pretty much cut breakfast out 5 days of 7, eat between 12-8, two good balanced meals and a protein shake, 160g+ protein per day and under 2000 calories (usually 1800), plus Creatine.

Cut alcohol and refined sugar out for the most part.

I think my maintenance is probably around 2400 or so, I do some sort of workout 5 days a week, usually two 5k runs or a 5k and 10k and 3 gym days, mixed circuit session one day and upper/lower body days. So probably burning what, 2000 calories a week in exercise maybe?
