<p>well what you eat (and don't eat) is what really gets the results. Keeping a food diary feels pretty anal but it will make a huge difference if <strong>you are honest with it.</strong></p>

<p>Food diary? The whole point of regular exercise is to <strong>not </strong>have to count calories etc (not this "results" jargon! :))</p>

<p>That was my hope. Why can't I have my cake and a small butt too? WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYY?</p> -
Don is right in that doing exercise allows you to eat more loosely without blowing out the figure BUT if you want to lose weight or change your current figure the loose eating will slow you down.<br><br>
My advice would be to run the food diary or do whatever you need to get the small butt you want then loosen things up a wee bit eating wise but keep doing the exercise and you should be able to maintain the small butt or goal weight. If it starts creeping back up (or out) then obviously diet is too loose or you will need to increase your exercise to compensate for it. -
<p>Killer leg workout today.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>5.5km cycle, then a circuit with squat jumps, medicine ball throwdowns, cycle stand up, wall sits, lunges, walking lunges, lunge pulses, squats, leg lifts, glute squeezes with sand bag, hamstring curls, crunches, swiss ball ab lock. Also did some shoulder presses, tricep dips.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Taking gym stick, boxing gloves/focus pads, weights to the beach, but I'm looking forward to some walks between drinking and scoffing sessions.</p> -
<p>Boxing Day and back into the exercise grind, we did a bach circuit that included crunches, chest press, tricep dips, bicep curls, skipping rope, walking lunges, gym stick and a resistance harness attached to the deck to attempt to run. 10.30am is not a good time for this, especially with a hangover.</p>
