T.M.H.N.E.T replied to the thread It's starting to make sense now.
Interesting idea. With the buoy I was able to feel that I was flatter in the water,more stable and bi-lateral breathing was working well enough. I swam without it today and while I felt higher in the water it kinda threw my breathing off....

Congratulations! I too completed my first triathlon on Sunday - it was a try a tri but was a great introduction to it especially as I don't get much time to train with a 1 year old and a 2 year old at home but I really enjoyed it and have my first...

T.M.H.N.E.T replied to the thread It's starting to make sense now.
Swapped from a "leisure complex" to a "leisure centre" that holds regular swim gala's,training nights and so on as the former hand paddles,buoys and the like were frowned upon. (It's also more local so fuel saving,it's also right on the coast so...

Where do you swim OW?(freshwater?) saltwater?) I've looked around and somewhat organised venues are rare. I'm in Larne if that effects any answer :smile: ps:congrats on first OW swims :)

Well that was my first Tri, Sun 13th .. it went Ok (no mishaps) and finished in just under 1hour 30 mins. Not OW though (thats next month) and I was very pleased about that. I was held up a bit in the swim but not much - it was either that...

T.M.H.N.E.T replied to the thread Success with calorie counting.
Once you get a rhythm of just what portion sizes and foods fit your daily goal,you really don't need to use it religiously and count for every calorie. I don't believe in MFP as a long term app/site,slightly moreso a useful wakeup call to dietry...

Carbs aren't the problem on their own. Rarely (if ever) are.. ps: 1 gram fat = 9 calories 1 gram carbs = 4 calories

T.M.H.N.E.T liked lejogger's post in the thread Water consumption.
I completely agree with you. Both. It's the same point as above. Eat more, exercise more, and get stronger through exercise in both a physical and more competence sense. Agree again. It just seemed like some people were insinuating that...

T.M.H.N.E.T replied to the thread Water consumption.
You're right it isn't all about eating less but in many cases it is,combined with getting off your ass. In this instance it's about eating more to lose weight and improve energy levels to fuel the exercise. If you aren't eating enough or are...
