Sorry for the delay in adding a couple of recent members. I didn't get the email saying you'd requested to join.

How is everyone? I haven't been around much, or done much exercise for a while now. It's been... well, a pretty bad year this year, but hopefully things are turning around now, and I can get back to getting fit. Hope everyone else is making progress!?

I just bought ' You Are Your Own Gym: The Bible of Bodyweight Exercises' by Mark Lauren, a SpecOps trainer. I've only done one work-out so far, but the book seems great. Has everything for a beginner like me, all the way up to elite athlete workouts. There's also an iPhone app, with all the exercises in and a timer to time your work-outs. I'd definitely recommend it.

Amazon in the US currently have the Kindle version of the book 'Running for Life' for just 99c.

Seems ok what I've read of it so far.

Still looking for an uncopyrighted image to use for the group, but not having much luck. Anyone have any ideas?
