huh, maybe I'll invest in some free weights or a bench/bar. otherwise the only gym in my town charges 45 a month with $100 startup cost. i probably wouldn't use it enough to justify..
 
Morning manual labor has me the strongest I've been ever!

I've been doing chores around the house and the garden early morning everyday so it doesn't interfere with my business and other matters, and that's been really paying off physically and gastronomically. I now eat almost everything (about 90% ) from the garden.

What I ordinarily would work some hours a day for (in terms of buying organic produce) at an office I get working about 1 hour in the garden. While our washing machine (which uses 100% herbal laundry soap) isn't somehow hooked up to the main food area, I have to haul the water, and water the stuff manually. I'm still figuring out how all the wasted water can be hooked up (it's pretty far) and still installing rainwater bla blas.

I know, it's some work being made there, but I went a round of boxing and stickfighting yesterday, and my pows are much stronger! With a more varied set of chores now (doing my own laundry since our labandera went back to the province!) I'm doing more than the usual lifting and digging-- like wringing laundry and hanging heavy stuff up. It also involves a lot of bending and stretching. All this for about an hour to an hour and a half everyday, the time I would have spent doing some exercise that doesn't get any jobs done.

I'm loving it so much.

ouch yeah that sucks man. For that money you can just about have a beginner 45lb oly bar with 255 pounds of weight. Thats enough for a 300lb deadlift (will take a few weeks to months to build up to probably depending on how strong you are now).

if you want any advice about what kind to buy or whatever feel free to PM me (or facebook me haha! :D).

I really do love working out at home. No travel time and you can really focus on your work. You can make it like a meditation time.
 
Mehm, you could ask them to waive the $100 intro fee. It was a $95 start up fee for mine without a time committment. I asked them if they would waive it if I signed an agreement that I would stay for a year and they did! Every second month my gym has a special where they waive that fee anyway. You just have to read the fine print on their advertising.

I prefer to leave my house to work out. I am less likely to push myself if no one is watching. My husband would prefer to have a home gym.

i kind of agree with both of ya'll. i love a big workout at the gym or the track, because i get a lot of motivation out of other people watching, but it's also really convenient to just head out my front door or do body-weight exercises in my living room.

i'd like to have a treadmill, but the weather here isn't that bad, and i'd need to spend a lot of money to get one that would really suit my training.
 
30 min brisk walk with dog in the heat
55 min sculpting class
45 min spin
all performed with a intermittent headache
I didn't go to work today.
 
60 min leg-turnover . . moved up to 150m intervals
lots of running around with the dog too.

i'm really happy with the way my legs handled yesterday's run. had a lot more quickness today than i would have expected.

yeah long summer days with no job + high natty test = two-a-days baby! :)

Just went and did:
reverse woodchoppers 3x15 (fuckin whew!)
OH press 3x8
Pullups 3x8xBW
Curls (negatives) 3x5

yeah baby! lets hear it for natural testosterone! :)
 
^ lmao

I have to admit though I've tugged it a few minutes and then gone and ripped shit up lifting. Almost always PR when I have all that crazy sexual energy needing release (lol). Don't splooge though with your tug or you'll lose the grr.
 
I lift light weights mon, wed, fri, ....run or cycle tues and thurs. I work on the weekends so thats like weight lifting for me, lots of heavy moving boxes need moving.

about 40 days I am recovered bro my sex drive is raging and my gains are coming back again from their 4 week hiatus during PCT :D

I also feel like the 'good old Andy' again emotionally and balance-wise.

That's good to hear man, honestly. I'm not exagerrating when I say I didn't feel 100% right up until about 6 months post cycle. That was with a solid PCT as well.

*Shit, guess I should add this was around the time I started getting into prescription painkillers pretty regular, so this may have had something to do with me losing a lot of the gains and just not recovering like I should have.:! Dumbass I know
 
30 min fartlek warm-up
70 min hill-bounding circuit (with longer hills and more sprints at the bottom than before)
60 min walking/running the dog w/ the gf
