    Right, I'm 17, 85 kg (175lb), and around 5'8, looking to generally lose some weight by Summer really.
    Haven't joined the gym yet, going to after christmas, e55 seems a bit of a waste for 2 months to be honest :rolleyes:. Went for the first time with a mate, who's doing Health Sciences and Physiology, everything he said, went straight over my head :pac:.

    Erm, any advice on what excercises I should do to lose weight and hopefully gain some muscle mass, and a rough diet plan, I've read the stickies, numerous times, but my stomach isn't made for oily fish or nuts :p

    Went to the gym for the first time as I said, went on the treadmill for 20 mins, building up to 6mph for like 10 mins, was like a raspberry afterwards. Then did some resistance thingie-ma-bobs, 3 sets of 9 on : *Xcuse me lol* , the one where you push out, then where you pull it towards yourself and finally 3x 9 of 5kg free weights.

    Diet is pretty crap, going to start proper this week,, trying to eat more fruit, and less fried sh!te though.

    Cheers for the help. :D

    €55 a month for twelve months is €660, you sure about this? For €660 It'd want to be the best damn gym in the known universe.

    Look there's an old thread over here,

    Basically the IT in Sligo do a pay as you go system, which might suit for now.
