    So, you took no action?

    Replace Special K with Broccoli. Takes a wee bit of getting used to in a bowl of milk, but your heart will thank you.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 218 ✭✭burnhardlanger


    Buy a heart rate monitor.

    Deduct your age from 180.
    Take another 5 off of that.

    Walk/Jog/Run/etc/etc as strictly as possible at that heart rate.

    Use a mouse instead of the touchpad on the laptop and move your whole hand rather than just your finger


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 12,687 ✭✭✭✭Penny Tration


    Don't eat junk food, don't smoke, don't drink to excess, exercise daily, don't have too much caffeine, don't do drugs.

    Basically, don't have fun. :)

    Decided to add an extra daily fap to supplement you cardio regime?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 991 ✭✭✭SuperGrover


    Started using filters for my rollies instead of cardboard roaches.

    I will live forever.

    Reduced my stress levels, by pretending my boss is a zombie.

    Stabbing him in the head was very therapeutic.

    Walked to the local take-away instead of driving

    Did I ever tell you how much sugar is in Special K?

    Special K. "The Devil's Scabs" as they're also known in some circles.

    Buy a dog or better yet rescue one from a shelter. Companion and your best friend for years, if you are a fan of puns/crap internet memes get a female.

    "I took her for a walk, bitches love walks" etc

    So now you have a friend and someone who'll get you walking daily. between walking from work and walking my dog i do about 5-6k a day minimum

    I didn't buy a family sized bag of crisps to stuff my face with, I bought a bag of American hard gums instead. So I'm helping my heart by avoiding the fat but increasing my risk of diabetes with the sugar content of the sweets.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,254 ✭✭✭Andrewf20


    I increased my cardio by jumping to conclusions.*

    *warning: 1985 joke.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,789 ✭✭✭grizzly


    Could you exercise you finger by adding more ellipses to your posts?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,917 ✭✭✭✭iguana


    Switch from low-fat dairy to full fat, it's much better for you. Especially avoid 'butter' spreads and just use proper butter. In fact for almost all foods switch from low fat to the regular version. Low fat tends to be highly processed and full of sugar, whereas naturally occurring fats don't tend to be a problem in moderation. Avoid all trans-fats.

    I cycle to work every day and I never take the lift in work always the stairs.

    And I also don't park within five fcukin inches of the supermarket door. I am willing to walk across the car park.

    Put Berocca into every drink I've had. I haven't slept in days.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 953 ✭✭✭donegal__road


    If you drink red wine, drink Pinot Noir.. it has the highest percentage of Resveratrol than any other red wine, sometimes up to 10 times the amount.

    Resveratrol is the compound which is known to be very good for the heart, blood vessels etc. as well as being a powerful antioxidant.

    I usually buy Cono Sur Pinot Noir, its Chilean and has a picture of a bicycle on the label. It has a purple cap, and is about €9.

    I'm pretty sure even the heart will be saying "get the fuck"

    Pretty sure it proves he doesn't have a heart therefore he has no need to improve its health.
