OK so, we all get sick, and make threads moaning about it, so why not all whinge on one.....so ladles and gentlemen, I give you the Wellness Fail Thread
In true gilry styl-ee I will go first...
Had a pesky headache for 2 days....can't seem to get rid of it. It isn't even bad, just bad enough to be annoying and then start pounding if I exhert myself. The thing had better be gone before climbing tonight!
Oh...and there is more....I have a stuffed up nose
It is self inflicted as I am lactose intolerant and I ate a pizza last night....meh....why can't I stop eating dairy?!!!

at want of sounding gross, I used to get really billious if i had too much dairy, I used to drink about 4 pints of milk a day, so I really had to cut that out because I used to cough up bile by the bucketload
I feel your pain, i've been headachy for a few days now and its not nice, I just feel like sleeping full stop
what a wonderful idea though, a grumble about feeling meh thread, I predict it will be popular0 -
How long before someone complains of man flu?
Sleep...chance would be a fine thing! If I get 6 hours a night I am doing WELL! I wish I had time to sleep!Ride it like you stole it!0 -
I've strained my stomach muscles after taking part in a family sports-day at the weekend. I think it happened during the sack-race. I'll live, but it aches a bit 0

I hate that when you exercise and ache. I have the same problem from climbing 2 days ago but the pain is in my back!
Funnily enough, no matter how far I go on my bike I never ache...I just end up covered in cuts and bruises when I fall off!Ride it like you stole it!0 -

I'm eating food that doctors think I'm allergic to so they can take stomach biopsys...again as they did it wrong the first time.0

It's being fit for purpose; I did 178km on the road bike last week, and no aches. Jumping in a sack for 30 seconds, and I can feel it.
Oh, and I'm glad someone else gets cuts and bruises (MTB, I presume?); I think it's part of my riding style.0 -

is that a good or a bad thing, are you enjoying eating the stuff again, or is it just making you feel broken?Ride it like you stole it!0 -

I'm not fit for purpose, especially not at the moment, I have just had 5 months off after a hand injury!
I was unfit before, found it hard to get my fitness up, still relied on my salbutomol for asthma even when I was in good shape so that's always helpd me back biking Ride it like you stole it!0 -

Well, lets just put that into context shall we:
I've broken pretty much every bone in my body apart from my back an neck at some stage in my life. As a result, most of my joints ache, creak or click. I have arthritis in both hands. I've had my stomach rebuilt (twice), so eating can be a little uncomfortable at times. I'm also a Type1 Diabetic.
But today, for once, I feel pretty dammed wonderful...0 -

Its so hard to do, I've had a couple of months off the gym through not having much time, and I've really felt the difference on the trails after cutting out my excercise bike sessions, and thats just on 8 weeks resting.
Another good example is when we rode Llandegla a few weeks back, my bro came with us. Hes 22, a sports science graduate, plays football 3 times a week and coaches footy too, I thought he'd nail the physical aspect of biking, maybe struggle technically, but he was knackered really quickly, it just shows you have to be tuned to the type of excercise too0 -
Yer it is super frustrating. I mean even at my fittest I was still slow uphill as I just couldn't breathe. Everyone assumes just becasue I had loads of muscle my fitness was good! Now I have neither...all I still have is a strong core.Ride it like you stole it!0

Well I caught my hand in a fence playing 5 a-sides last night, so its sore and pretty swollen. so much so that it stopped me riding to work this morning.
I just hope its better in time for the Great North Bike Ride in 4 weeks...

Nah at the local sport centre place. they had 3G astro grass put in a couple of years ago now and new fences put in, I always knew they'd get me still sucks when it happens though!

I'm in fairly good nick apart from repeated Iliotibial band syndrome (gives me knee pain) and Achilles tendinitis in my right leg.
I do what I can to stop them flaring up but they just keep on coming back, not the worst thing to deal with.

MS, been told to get as much exercise as possible, but avoid anything that could cause balance problems.
Fook that, don't smoke, don't eat rubbish, no narcs, so I will continue with a glass of plonko when I want.
But having broken both legs,both arms, 7 fingers, 1 ankle, 6 ribs, both collar bones, 4 toes and a fractured skull don't really bode well for the future.Visit Clacton during the School holidays - it's like a never ending freak show.

same kind of fences as goals, we had broken fingers and torn hands, i was glad I played in goal. Horrible fences in my opinion, although we had boards to waist level too0
