Just learnt something the hard way today.

If you're getting more advanced in age(like me!), have not been exercising regularly(like me!), a bit round the edge(like me!) but still thinking of hitting the gym(like me!)...

DO WARM-UP.

Seriously.

A 27 year old body that is being bitch-slapped by the rigours of sedentary office life, mauled into submission by a constant lack of sleep, force-fed a diet of air(ciggys) and water(alcohol) is only marginally able to function normally on a daily basis.
To take it to a higher level (ie: jogging), some preliminary steps must be taken.
One of which is taking the time to DO WARM-UP.

I had to learn it the hard way.
Ouch...

PS: For those who are interested, I managed to run a measly 4km before deciding enough was enough.

PPS: Did I mention I kinda pulled my back muscle or something along that line? Ouch...
