There's a Rugby pitch round the corner from me. I was thinking of sprinting from the try line to the 22 yard, then walk back to the try line, sprint up to the half way line walk back to the try line, sprint up to the opposition 22 yard line walk back etc.
I like the sound of this. You can do a similar thing in the swimming pool for a similar 'afterburn' effect.
Cheers Sha, I wasn't sure if it was adequate enough as I have little experience in this area. I just thought i'd keep it simple and use the logic that if it's natural with no added flavorings, sugars or preservatives then it's probably good for you.

These are tough to avoid, and something I am beginning to learn at the moment. The amount of rubbish that is in what you may otherwise assume, and are told, is healthy is unreal.
I wasn't keeping track of my caloric intake beforehand, though I've seen worse diets mine wasn't quite so bad just consisted of;
-Fry-ups Saturday and Sunday
-Meat dishes would usually be coated in some sort of batter, crumbs, coating or sauces
-Cheese tended to feature quite heavily
-2 Sugars in each tea/coffee
-10-12 pints consumed over Friday/Saturday nights
-Veg portions smaller than they could have been
-Hardly any fruit
I'm no qualified nutritionist or PT but I have been doing this for a long time (ex GB athlete) it sounds to me you are abit more carb sensitive or have a lot of carbs? Maybe something you want to focus on.
Really cut down on the pints. No alcohol is good alcohol but atleast switch to a spirit with a diet coke or tonic rather than pints which are just shy of 200cals each.
Its well worth splashing out abit of money on an experienced trainer with a good reputation if you're really serious.
