hi folks - long time lurker first time poster. i'm struggling a bit at the moment.... i'm in my late 30s and was hoping to join a 30+/40+ club as i understand they train weekly and play on weekends. i contacted my closest club. won't name names... but they were not helpful at all... were not that interested to hear from me and when i said i was struggling, they said they have enough numbers anyway and maybe i try something else? I am unfit at the moment... really struggling to even run more than a few minutes. I'm not too overweight... just unfit. I even went to the doc thinking it was asthma or something and he said nah you are just unfit is all... so i'm hoping to have some advice on what i should be doing daily/weekly to improve my strength and running capability so one of these clubs will take me in and i can get back on the track (it has been over 10 years)... i feel like my mental health will be better for it too... just no confidence in my fitness at the moment. so i hope to post in the training section looking for advice and then hopefully become a good news story and can share what i learned and help others too. sorry... a bit of a rant to. please forgive!
