A WAY TO LOSE FAT (My way - not the only way)):

The worst way to lose fat is to eat less and go jogging – this hardly works and makes you a moron.

1 Eating less makes you hungry – eventually you’ll cave-in. Image
2: Never jog. Never, ever, jog. Run or sprint but never jog. You want to get lean. right? Jogging won’t help you. Jogging hardly uses any calories (might as well walk).

Generally,

1 Do some form of resistance training
2 Do high intensity exercise such as interval training Image
3 Eat no more than two meals a day
3 Reduce the carbohydrate content of your diet i.e. bread, pasta, rice, pizza, cakes, desserts, sweets. Eat as much meat, fish, eggs, non-starchy vegetables as you like.

More specifically,

*LC HP IF – the way forward (diet)*

Keep Healthy - does it 100% guarantee you won't get serious covid? No. Does it mean your susceptibility is vastly reduced? Yes.

I've been everywhere over the past 16mths, met family, friends, pple who've had covid, hardly worn a mask. Have I had even a *hint* of covid? F**k no.
Your 'forcefield'

Keep lean. Have adequate muscle mass. Keep strong. Get outdoors. Get the Sun. Be aerobically & anaerobically fit. Eat animal foods, meat, eggs and seafood.
Strangely enough (not strange), these things will help you resist all sorts of conditions and risks that unhealthy people suffer from.

Poor health increases fragility to environmental hazards.

Tennis players have good skill transfer to golf and football. I remember my daughter being wowed by a top US female player we got to know who had great ball skills. The player came from a large family of boys so it was natural that she played with them as she grew up.
@hib31_art learned to do all this herself.

1/ She was brought in an environment of outdoor, skillful, active people; good at tennis, football, martial arts, and a range of general abilities - skating, juggling, table tennis, frisbee....
(plus, random abilities that athletes have, backflipping, jumping over things, balancing, tricks and skills - things which they learn just for fun and a challenge)

2/ She naturally participated and was encouraged to learn skills.

British Tennis.

Now Andy Murray is out, the familiar story at the Wimbledon grand slam is that they'll be no British players going through to the 2nd week. Six years ago I highlighted the systemic problems the LTA suffers from.

express.co.uk/sport/tennis/5…
After my 2 meetings with the LTA performance director, I wrote (2016);

'The Lawn Tennis Association are presiding over a long tortuous slow crash of their sport. Once Murray retires the full horror will be revealed and the post-mortem will begin'

express.co.uk/sport/tennis/6…
In May this year the LTA appointed two non-executive directors from the minority ethnic community to "make the game more inclusive and diverse"; missing the point that it isn't about diversity but affordability.
