    Why drop the circuits mate if your still gonna run/cycle? Your making great progress with them at the moment that should be motivation enough, you just have to push through the flat, un-motivated days and keep going. I know what you mean though, some days its an absolute **** having to drag myself out of bed to go run and do my circuits, especially when it would mean an extra hour in bed before work, but i always feel better after. Try swith it up a bit, try some Tabata workouts or steps circuits, or maybe weight training?

    Spartan runs could be good for you too, as you combine running with press ups, sit ups burpees, squats or whatever you chose to do. I'd keep going with the circuits though or you'll lose the progress you've made and end up feeling pissed off with it and lose more motivation.

    Give us a shout if you need any advice etc :good

    Thanks mate I'll definitely give those spartan runs a go - kill 2 birds with one stone.

    Because I can do the circuits in 1/2 an hour I kept putting them off until the end of the day, I don't get back from work until nearly 11, so I started making excuses for myself, like I'd tell myself I'd have some food first and then an hour later I was even more tired and didn't want to get a sweat on and need a shower that time of night. So I'm going to do them before I work.

    Another mistake I think I made was sticking to just 2 or 3 exercises, I'm going to incorporate more of the exercises you told me about, so that I am doing 6-8 different exercises per circuit.

    I don't know anything about protein shakes etc. I eat quite well these days, don't consume much sugar and very rarely drink alcohol.

    You want to buy yourself a tub of creten pills.

    Take a couple in the morning and night.

    That combined with your training - you will really see a impact on your body - and they build your strength allowing you to train harder and help in the recovery process after a work out.

    I haven't done any strength or boxing training since last time I posted on here. I am cycling 16.5 miles Mon-Fri with a backpack on and I have to go up a monster hill on the way home. With all this cardio work and a good diet I am in pretty good shape. I might try to get back into doing circuits etc but am happy with current fitness.

    I have moved house and am further from my place of work so am cycling 20 miles 5 days a week. Don't really have the time to do any other training but eating good and cycling 100 miles a week I feel in decent shape.
