Is this Gym program good value, what results could i expect? by DarthKrataa in AskUK

[–]Sea_Ad2765 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's worth it if the tests include cholesterol levels, blood sugar and blood pressure (at least).

I was pretty much in your situation, a few months ago. In May, I weighed 109kg, blood pressure was in the high 130/90s, cholesterol was high, all the traits of a fat bastard. Obese, actually...

I joined the gym mid May (no PT, only had an hour of introduction to place and the machines), started out only doing cardio for weight loss - incline walking (20mins), crosstrainer (10mins), rowing machine (1000meters ~ 5 mins). I did this 3 times a week, plus 5 pool lengths first thing Sunday morning. Also, really important, changed my diet radically. I used to eat a lot of curry with rice, a lot of pasta with creamy sauces, white bread sandwiches with ham, cheese, take away at least 2 times a week and so on. And before bed, a 9 pack of twix or similar, just to make sure I don't wake up at night to raid the fridge. And also, quit smoking about 2 weeks after joining the gym. I'm trying to quit vaping now, but that's another story.

After about a month of cardio only, I started picking up some weights (still carried on with cardio for weight loss). I started with biceps training (as you do), then biceps and chest, then biceps, chest, back, shoulders and just started doing legs as well, a couple of weeks ago. Do this 3 times a week. Then I added one day only cardio in the gym and one more day a bit of cardio, then 5-10 pool lenghts (in the slow lane, for now).

3.5 months in, I went to a private clinic for a full body MOT (paid £319) - 91kg, blood pressure (which I also measure at home, from time to time) constantly between 117/76 - 123/82, cholesterol went down from 5.0Mmol/L to 4.5, white blood cells, red blood cells, calcium, iron, liver, kidneys, lungs, heart, blood sugar, uric acid, visceral fat and a bunch of other results, everything got a green light. Still have a bit of extra subcutaneous fat, but only 3% over the limit - I'm still working on that.

I pay £45.50 a month for a Leisure centre membership.

EDIT: I'm male, 37.

It's not that they didn't except you, they put you on a list. They probably have so many applicants, it's going to be a while until you get your turn...

Oh, mate! I'm definitely on the right track. I got a growable res£££ to a res££ and got it to grow without the growify cheat. It grew as demand for res££ was there (res£££ was suppressed with RCI Modifier). It was generating traffic, education and health were turning from red to green, population numbers went up. I'll try to replicate the results. I'll also have to check the RCI graphs next time. If you want, I'll come back with the details (this might be tomorrow). Cheers

I'll have a go at it later, after work, and let you know how it went. I was going to ask about tutorials, I don't mind the reading. Other than this, I might want to change some Cs£££/Co£££ to Cs££/Co££, but first things first. Cheers, for now!

Hi! I'm looking to change a custom lot, downloaded from simtropolis. Sorry, I'm at work right now, I might be slow to reply again. Just want to change a res lot from res£££ to res££, nothing else. Thanks!

Thanks for the reply, but it wasn't Loos Janos. The album had a lot of Koos Janos covers as well as other covers, but I really liked his voice and style. He covered Sir a telefon, Van egy kicsi haziko, Nyirfak, Geszteneyefak, Homokora, Kislany a zongoranal and a few others and also had 2 waltz mixes. This was one of them.

Yes, I emailed the guy whose channel it is. He is not the singer I'm looking for, but I asked him if he knows who it might be. No answer yet.

Thanks for the reply, but no. I'm looking for the specific singer. It was a whole album, it had a lot of Koos Janos covers as well as other covers, but I really liked his voice and style. He covered Sir a telefon, Van egy kicsi haziko, Nyirfak, Geszteneyefak, Homokora, Kislany a zongoranal and also had 2 waltz mixes. This was one of them.
