  1. Finally built the exercise bike… I feel like a failure… the plan was to leave it in the box for 28 days and return it, so I could say I at least tried one. 😂 Ahem.

    Anyway, had a ride this morning using #mywhoosh app and it was actually fun. Used my MacBook (M1) and it ran very smoothly.

    Only issue was the initial bluetooth connection. Found my bike model first go, but didn’t connect all 3 sensors, so it wouldn’t go anywhere when I pedalled. Restarted the app, and it worked.

    I was free-riding around #Dubai apparently, for about 7km, at an average speed of 36km/h. The course was flat (okay 7m total rise, but that’s flat to a #scotland boy) so it was an easier ride. Took under 11 minutes, but didn’t want to push it on day one.

    I can see this getting addictive…

  4. (Looking for exercise advice here - please read the whole post)

    I need to figure out what exercises will target my leg tiredness, and cardio, rather than just jumping into the ring for sparring.

    30 minutes into a post-warmup Muay Thai sparring session last night (3 minute rounds, 1 min break, switch opponent), my legs were like lead, and my brain was tired, but my arms, core, etc., seemed fine.

    Has to be a stamina issue?

    (I used to train 4 hours a week in the gym, but not done anything for 5 years other than squats and press-ups at home.)

    Ideas? Skipping? Walking/yomping with weight? Running? ‘Full bastards with clap’? Ton ups? Royal Marines style training program?

    Any thoughts from other elderly ring-fighters?

    #Over60 and still waiting for that "conservative" phase. If anything I'm MORE radical.
    The people who say that shit went to Dead shows while quietly voting for Reagan.
