OsuMj Posted March 24, 2014 Report Share Posted March 24, 2014 (edited) I ran just short of a mile the other day and was a wreck! I looked back on my running records and 6 short months ago, I did a 10 mile run just for the hell of it. So frustrating.I've decided to ease back into it. I'm doing a 30 day challenge because it only takes 15 minutes out of my day and its building my confidence. I'm on day 5.

Gixxus Christ! Posted March 26, 2014 Report Share Posted March 26, 2014 I quit tracking on my fitness pal because A: it's a pain in the dick and B: a month of tracking has given me healthy eating habits. Did chest and back last night with 20 min of cardio. Sore as fuck today. Arms and abs tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blue03636 Posted March 26, 2014 Report Share Posted March 26, 2014 I'm up to 4 pull ups now. Going to add quite a bit of cardio starting tomorrow. I hope to drop at least another 7 lbs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scruit Posted March 26, 2014 Report Share Posted March 26, 2014 I have decided I am going to do push-ups at the top of every hour I am awake. My black belt test is in 4 months and I have to do 100 push-ups in 2mins as part of the test. Training for my brown belt I got to 75. Now I'm back to 50-ish. For now, each hour I am doing 10. Hope to get up to being able to do 40 or 50 per hour. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gixxus Christ! Posted March 28, 2014 Report Share Posted March 28, 2014 I've been a turd this week and last week. Only hit the gym once each week. Just feel like going home and resting by the time I'm done at work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bad324 Posted March 28, 2014 Report Share Posted March 28, 2014 I started to be able to eat again and somehow I was still miraculously at the same weight at last week. It's helped me gain a little momentum on not eating like a fat ass Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hutch Posted March 29, 2014 Report Share Posted March 29, 2014 Hey I got a 3xl black slingshot I'd sale half price of new if you know a big guy that wants one. Only used about 5 workouts. Sent from my SPH-L600 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mykill Posted March 29, 2014 Report Share Posted March 29, 2014 Squated 370x1 yesterday. It was ugly.... Paused at the bottom on accident, depth was not quite there, and grinded it all the way up. Gonna try to clean it up next week for a more legit lift...Ran 2.36 miles today and will be jogging again tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rawlins87 Posted March 29, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 29, 2014 The reactive (blue one) would still be beneficial. Or even a set if micro or mini bands. The problem with the red and especially black along shots is that too much band tension is proven to be counterproductive. But anyway glws. Try bb.com or powerliftingwatch.com classifieds.

speedytriple Posted April 6, 2014 Report Share Posted April 6, 2014 Went and started my spring work out routine today. We went to the nature center in the north rocky river park. They have a set of steps that will kick you butt. It is 135 steps up a steep ridge. We did laps up the stairs over the ridge down another set of steps We did about 4 laps and hiked 4 miles on the park path system. I plan to do this daily till I get my wind back. Only photo I could find online of the steps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shadyone Posted April 7, 2014 Report Share Posted April 7, 2014 Those steps look fun. I actually really enjoy running steps. Started lifting with a buddy about 4 weeks ago. Helps to have someone to force you to lift in those days that you don't want to. We have been doing a pretty neat progressive training program. I'll have I take a picture of the work sets. Basically you Move weight up 2.5 lbs a week on your main lifts Which are squat bench dead lift and press. In 4 weeks I've gone from being able to do about 4 pull ups total to 3 sets of 8. I'm at 205 now and much leaner than I was at this time last year, At a similar weight. I've been eating a lot less and better food the last 2 weeks.
