I went to my Zumba Class today, 60 minutes... was hard but felt good afterwards.

Gym tomorrow. ^_^

 

3 and a bit miles at about 8.20s. Felt pretty easy. It's going well.

 

3 mile. Not bad! What was your target HR?

 

Day 3: Wednesday, May 4, 2011

I've been tied up with work in the mornings so I've been slacking off the past couple of days.

For that reason I decided to go back a week in the Stu Smith program. I'm on Day 3.

Look y'all, I know this workout is gonna seem weak compared to the Ironman/bodybuilding shit the rest of you are doing, but its intense for me. I'm battling a severe case of piriformis caused by lower-cross syndrome so that's why I'm taking it easy.

20:00 min Elliptical Machine (2 mi / avg HR 151)
5:00 min Stair-master (600 meters)
5x20 Sit-ups
5x10 Push-ups
5x15 Back Extensions

35g of Whey Protein

 

I had a wank yesterday! Does that count, or has someone already said that, making this a tired old half-joke? :excited:

 

2 hours worth of Kata

 

Since you are doing a lot of lengthy exercises, have you considered casein supplements? They are great for the slow release of protein...

 

Gym kinda went out of the window today

Will make sure i go tomorrow.

 

More wanking.

 

+1 on this one, it is the only work out I'm consistently can do!! :excited::excited:

 

It was about 75% WHR at that pace but I was going for a practice session at about what should be marathon pace on Sunday.

 

How did the run go yesterday?

 

it was nice...though I stop running and walk when I feel like my heart will burst out of my chest and then run again.. now, I feel a little pain in my legs but its cool.. I'll be running again later this evening! thanks for asking

 

I started about 2 and a half years ago by running until I had to walk, then running again a bit. Eventually the walking stops and you just run. I coldn't get a mile done without a breather back then.

I've done 5 Half Marathons since then and I'm doing my first full Marathon on Sunday.

It takes time and patience and perseverence but you'll get there. Just stick with it.

 

My fiance (Dracos_fantasy)and I purchased memberships to a local gym two days ago. So far we have gone twice. Unfortunately we won't be able to make it tonight because of other obligations and work.

I am surprised at her reaction though, as she has in the past, despised routine exercise. But she really loved it, and said that it made her feel energized. Me, I think I get too much endorphin production. I just get nappy. lol

We are both going to try really hard to keep at it.

 

I'm very positive that I can keep up with my running without a break, it's just that my running schedule is not consistent. But I'm working on it and planning to have a strict schedule to follow. It feels good after every run.

*today I just finish a 1.5km run with breaks and more than 3 km brisk walking*

 

Good work! Well done. Set yourself a plan but be sure to listen to your body.

If you are too tired to run have a break from it, just don't use that as an excuse not to run when you're OK.

 

I'll remember this one!:excited:

*************
I was invited by a friend yesterday to go the gym (the same gym I was a former member)

all you folks looking for a good workout..

With spring being here I now must dig a 6' x 4' deep trench along the east of the house foundation to put in exterior insulation..that's about 20' x 6' deep of solid clay...fancy putting those great big muskles to work? Or is that just for lifting lumps of metal?

8 hours of hard physical labour daily for about 3 weeks..
