Cycling and keeping healthy

I’ve always struggled with weight ever since i was a teenager, lost a lot when i left school but managed to put it all back on. i’ve always ridden some form of bike, not so much in the past to keep fit. well 2011 was a big year for me in cycling, i rode 30km a day to and from work then 100+ km on the weekends. managed to loose 20kg. which was great, then i moved away from Melbourne and didn’t ride so much and put a huge amount back on. This year i can safely say things have changed, i no longer smoke drink, i don’t eat meat and i’m always eating healthy and i ride every day.

Just like to share the results i’ve made this year and i ow it all to cycling mtb or fixed i ride big km’s on both.
so this year since jan i’ve 25 kg so far,

on the left is me now at 74kg on the right is me early last year at around 99kg

well done mate!!

I suck @ eating well. one week I’ll cook & take leftovers for lunch etc etc, next I won’t be organised & it’s toasted sandwiches & takeaway.

keep it up cam.

Awesome work mang! good on ya! 25kgs is no easy feat!

Ive only dropped 10kgs since beginning of the year, 95 to 85 now. Would love to be closer to 80, or even under 80 but love my junk food too much.

One of those new years reso things, decided to cut out all junk food and carbs, and just did 6 mins of high intensity work outs once day, basically 6 sets of 30 seconds of burpies. That went on for a few months and it worked.

Few months or so ago ive gone back to a ‘normal’ diet and started to run twice a week and if im lucky get about 100-120kms on the bike.

But as i said, love my junk food too much, and life’s too short to be eating healthy sh1t 24/7.

I am still trying to push to get to 80, my calf has just recovered from a strain a few weeks ago so havnt ran since.

But yeh, junk food is my downfall =(

Cycling is good for more than just your physical health. I really don’t have an issue with weight and am built like a stick, but I get real lazy/shitty when I’m not riding. Viva la Cycling!

Has the tattoo under your eye moved backwards since you lost all the weight? Looks like it in the photos.
