I'm still alive and still loosely follow this thread. It fills me with nostalgia and has encouraged me to reflect. I've been on Smogon for well over 10 years now and below is a collage of the first 'fitness' picture I ever posted on these forums alongside a more recent one from a few days ago. A...

All sounds good Stallion, especially with your history of hip problems. Keep it up!

Hi Smogon folk, long time no chat. I still exercise from time to time.

Couple of photos in lieu of a proper update. Lots going on in the next few months - a warm weather training camp in the Canary Islands next week, a British championship race in Ireland in April and a 'sky race' in Norway this summer to look forward to.

Have entered an off-road ultra-marathon (50km) in September so most of my training focus is on that at the moment. Building up mileage while not sacrificing speed work is the current challenge. I've also moved to Cardiff so hmu welsh smogonites and explain to me how I am supposed to speak a...

Haha, its coming back to me now, I recall you were particularly jacked. I'm still training most days, flipping between powerlifting and mountain-running depending on whatever injuries I have at the time (and whatever adulthood will allow...man, fuck adulthood...I just wanna do a Goku and abandon...

I am sitting here like 'ugh fuck I totally know this guy but I can't for the life of me put him in any context, I think you're a fitness bro but it's been years probably???' So hi

Like GotR, I also spend a lot of time debating, usually in very large groups. There's nothing quite like a good mass debate. And I find the more people involved, the better. I have a friend who has mass debated with me for years now and I must say, he is an absolute joy to watch. I would...

I guess you can try oatcakes as a low-calorie, low-sugar alternative.Or you can just have nothing and enjoy your crumb-free cuppa???

Oversimplifying but have found, through over a decade as a competitive runner, that the majority of overuse injuries can be treated with a handful of simple exercises. For knee pain, stretch your quadriceps religiously and begin a protocol of back squats. If squats are too painful, do eccentric...

I think bodybuilding companies and magazines like to overcomplicate 'cutting' in order to push their products and it leads to the process becoming unnecessarily daunting. At the risk of going down the opposite route and oversimplifying things, it's just a matter of lowering your net calories...

total = 32,198 ft Everest = 29,029ft and I've done it with nearly 2 weeks to spare on my original target. If anybody wants a no-bullshit true fitness challenge that will completely change you in terms of both aesthetics and performance, here it is; run the height of Everest in a month~. (as an...
