Robin's Nest


I live in a village called Offenham, a village with a maypole in the Vale of Evesham, just north of the Cotswolds and just south of Stratford upon Avon. Married to Linda with three grown up sons.

I am a consultant, trainer and coach specialising in benchmarking, sustainability and business excellence.

I also do commentary at rowing events and am often found with a microphone in my hand at any local event that needs a voice on the PA.

Member Since: 1/1/2008

My Goals:
Aiming for 83kg in 6 months, then I will decide whether I want to go to my 'ideal weight' of 79kg.

I have some specific goals in cycling as well, but a bit to techy for here!

My Program:
 Sensible eating, cutting out booze at least for january, tracking my nutrition, plus cycling 2-3 times/week and doing the SP strength training. So far, so good...


Personal Information:
Originally grew up in Esher, Surrey, lived in Melton Mowbray where I met and married Linda. Have been in the Evesham area since 1985

Other Information:
 Having spent the last 20 years involved in the sport of rowing, much of which was spent coaching others and running the club, I have just started road cycling with the Evesham Wheelers and am thoroughly enjoying it - never thought I could cycle 50-60 miles and still be alive. Now all I need to do is lose 18kg so I don't have so much to haul up the hills!

    Hi Robin!

    Was good to hear that you're still around as well, I had wondered what you had been up to in the meantime :) Glad that you're back though and still tackling the pounds ;)

    I have a new weapon in my arsenal against the bulge - running is the new um... dieting I guess. It's all gone a bit pear shaped this week with conferences, holidays, illness and an aching achilles - but back on the wagon next week, and back pounding the pavements as well. I have decided that it is the run, and not the bike, that doe it for me. Nearly up the 10km mark on my runs.

    I have noticed though that the biggest crime is not logging the food, this is where it all starts to slip away from me. I swear the logging keeps me honest!

    I WILL get to my target weight this year. No excuses :)

    Hi Robin - good to hear from you - I thought the Spark was slowly dying in the team there for a moment!

    I'm back on track after my annoying few weeks. Hope it lasts to be honest, going back to regularly tracking things is helping me enormously.

    Doesn't mean I'm not getting annoyed sitting at home today and feeling hungry and having to exert lots of willpower to go and raid the kitchen for goodies!

    I will be strong though.. only a couple of hours till paella and wine... mmm

    hope you're having a good weekend!

    Hello Robin. Also glad to see another man on the eco-sparkers team. Great progress. Check out the tin challenge, which I started. A great way to clean up while exercizing.

    Hey Robin - thanks so much for your tip on my blog about cycling through Temptation Alley instead of walking. You are SOOO right! I used to ride my bike to the gym, but as it's so close, I stopped cycling and started walking instead. I can't believe it didn't dawn on me until now that I was putting myself in the path of temptation by doing this! I shall be pumping up my tyres and cycling instead from now on.

    Sometimes you need someone to state the obvious :-)
