I'd recommend a few kettle bells, a12kg and a 16kg. Those, a yoga mat and somewhere to run, sorted :(

Lads, just been reading through this. Have been feeling the need to sort myself out lately. 45 now, and starting to feel it. Was thinking of getting myself an exercise bike and some dumbells.  What weight range would yas recommend to be starting with ?

For dumbbells I started with 5 kg dumbbell, then up to 6kg after 2 weeks and up to 7.5 kg about 3 weeks after that.

I've been trying to kickflip a skateboard for about 20 years. Still can't do it, but fucking hell, a good solid 30 mins of jumping fairly makes your body sweat.

Hah!

The learning curve is brutal and there'll be days when it just isn't happening as smooth as you'd want, but there is nothing like bombing along, snapping it just right, catching with the back foot and rolling away smooth. Over a gap, down stairs, or just flat ground, doesn't matter.

I've skated regularly since I was about 12/13 with a couple of years missing there but back on for good now. It's too good. Has the same depth and endless possibility as music to be honest. Big bonus that it's so physically intense too cause I have always found consciously exercising beyond tedious, but with something like this you don't even think about it til you're fucked after a whole day of it.

Was gifted a longboard lately and set about learning it, it is supreme fun, still getting used to it and finding spots to practice around town but the odd few days I do get a spin on it, I love it.

So was 12 stone when I started the weights 2 months ago. Down to 10 stone 8 pounds with a nice bit of muscle added. Beer belly has 80 percent gone. Another 4 weeks I'd say and it'll be totally gone. First 3 weeks were hard. Loving it now.

Has anyone here used Ben Dunne gyms? I'm seriously out of shape and at 45 years old I don't want to let it slide any further. I was thinking about joining a gym and the closest to me is a Ben Dunne gym. I was wondering if they're decent?
