    Boxing to his full ability looks problematic at the moment given his lifestyle choices.

    Why has he boxed Whyte, Chisora and an MMA bloke in his last three fights when Usyk and AJ are out there? 

    Top ranked contender for the WBC belt, cause AJ fight fell apart and for lots of Saudi money I assume.

    Say what you will about AJ, but at least he’s extremely active. Thats all fans want, at the end of the day. What’ll that be, 3 fights in 9 months? 
     

    Fury ‘the greatest ever’ lucky to get one fight a year out of. 
     

    If you could bet on it, I’d be lumping on him to pull out of the Usyk fight too. 

    Why would he pull out? If he boxes to his full ability he wins inside 12 rounds.

    Another one here for whom exercise in the past has been massive.

    I'm morbidly obese (don't look it but am) and in July 2019, I embarked on a mission to lose weight. Am mid-50's; single with children (two at home) and two away + grandchildren. Decided that I would quite like to be around to see them all grow up into fine young Yeovil Town fans (don't judge me 😀 ).

    Anyhow, set my mind on walking 5,000 steps a day. Not just my steps I do at work but a clear 5,000 steps in one walk or maybe two. Started in the July and by March, I had lost five stone and felt hugely better. I'd managed to do my 5,000 steps every day bar one when I forgot ( 🙄 ) and some days, way more. Think with my normal steps, I averaged around 8,000 a day.

    Cutting a long story short, COVID came in the March. I foolishly obeyed the one hour a day exercise rule which restricted the amount of walking I did. In addition, I took a job on at Sainsbury's as an online picker meaning I did around 8,000 steps each day by 8am, but they were short, shuffly steps rather than out-in-the-fresh-air strides so didn't really get much benefit really. Always tired so didd't exercise and within 18 months had put the whole five stone back on.

    I'm now at my heaviest and am trying to sort my life out to a point where I can get walking again. Hopefully, no pandemic will come along anf derail me this time as I need to stick to it. My profile pic here is an image of what I looked like at my proper fighting weight of around 15 stone, I'm now nearly eight stone heavier than that. I'd be happy losing six stone this year and it is achievable, it's only just over 1.5 lbs a week. However if you REALLY want to feel better upstairs, I believe you should combine it with a few other things like decluttering your house, taking up a new hobby or reorganising your finances. The whole thing WILL help you to feel better. 

    Although I'm of a green persuasion, my part time work enables me to get to 90% of City's home games and I love the matchday experience. Have probably met many of you from here IRL - to close, wishing everyone on here a Merry Christmas and a genuinely Happy New Year. 

    Fair play, where do you live? Maybe we could start a city strava group to encourage each other?

    Hi, Take up social dancing. It's lots of fun, good for the health, physically and mentally, great if you are lonely. You don't need to bring a partner because you swap partners during the night whilst having lessons.  You can either do Salsa/Bachata/ Cha Cha/ Kizomba with the Latin music or you can do modern jive/west coast swing etc with pop music.There is also Latin and Ballroom but in my experience it takes a long time to excel and feel confident for a social dance (not so fun). Hope this helps someone.

     

    Fair play, I honestly couldn’t think of anything work. I only dance when drunk 😂 

  5. How’s everyone doing? Just thought I’d check in with it being Christmas Day. 
     

    I’m currently having up and down days but glad to have a break from work and the routine and hoping to spend time with my family over the next week or so. 
     

    Going to rejoin the gym in the new year and focus on myself a bit more. 
     

    Hope everyone else is doing well. Take care all.

  6. I assume everyone has had the Christmas email off Jon. I guess it’s a form of communication and the academy info was interesting but it does feel a tad “off” that Nigel Pearson and his staff don’t get a mention / thanks seeing as it’s a 2023 review and he was in charge for the bulk of it.

    Folks keep saying spend, but on whom exactly? January sales usually not real bargains.

    And do we trust him to spend money seeing he wanted to buy Mehmeti who to me adds nothin (very poor man’s Jack Grealish wannabe)

    Happy to be proved wrong....but I feel that the step up maybe too much for LM. Championship is entirely different to league one....look at what happened when we first came up with Cotts.....we ate L1 up....then struggled for the first 3 seasons..  

    We had a decent squad then as well.
