Hi, I'm 65 yrs old, retired and 19.5 stones. I was a good runner until I was gifted depression for my 40th birthday. I have had 3 further doses, each time I came off the medication. I haven't had an episode for about 15 years. I feel permanently tired. I lost 6 stones about 18 months ago, but put 3 back on. I'm strong and can deadlift 140kgs and backsquat 120kgs, but I can do only a handful of press ups and zero pull ups. I need to get my act together

During Covid I completed 4 of the virtual PARAS 10 events. My Father was ex 2 Para, late 1940s - early 1950s so it was a homage to him
