Girlfriend’s Day-To-Day Diet And Exercise Regime Would Equate To A Generational Lock-In For Local Man

A local man has surprised himself this year by maintaining his New Year's health kick well into late February.

Betoota Heights auto-mechanic, Brendan Carson (29) has been jogging most days, and if he's not doing that, he's in the gym shifting tin.

While regaling his stiff legs and step count to anyone who will still listen, the big fella is also making a point of 'minimising carbs' - which is code for 'the first diet I have ever been on'.

That means he's only allowed to let the dogs out once, maybe twice a week. Outside of that, he must at least try to steer clear of beer, pasta and bread.

However, even with this bold new routine of explosive chest and arms, consistent cardio and heaps of salad, Brendan's redemption story is still nowhere near as impressive as the stuff his misso doesn't even talk about.

Brendan's girlfriend of six years, Claudia, has never once considered that she might be outperforming him by about 500%. Neither has Brendan.

In fact, neither of them realise that Claudia's day-to-day diet and training program would equate to a generational lock-in for her fairly active boyfriend.

From her daily core and cardio, to her daily salads, muesli and girl dinners - Claudia's nonchalant lifestyle would cause Brendan to have a permanent migraine if he was unable to get 11 hours sleep a night.

"Yeah I'm starting to plateau a bit on the weights" says Brendan, in response to his dwindling motivation.

"Might start doing ice baths"
