1 hour walk. The first 30 min's are slow and gradually i increase my pace to all out for 20 minutes and end with the remaining 10 min as slow down.

I am also starting to get back into the pool 3-5 days per week.

My METHOD man;

walk and or run in the shallow end. frontwards, backwards, sideways .... keep it changing.

then only swim in deep end; any method of your choice and comfort level.

1 hour steady with no breaks at all. no stop and chat , no tea and biscuits, no pizza and pop and chips while in the pool.

keep it going the full time you are there!!! But be safe. monitor yourself, be sure to feel good, if you feel faint or like passing out stop and rest.

Ask people who know about it for advice and research as to not over exert yourself. Too much exercise is as bad or worse as none.

Have fun. Switch it up with flotation devices. I tread water 2-30minutes with the flotation device under my upper body one day, then lower the next. It works different parts and muscles. Invest n a mult-vitamin + meal replacement drink too. sip on it 30-45 min after the swim. Depends on your body + metabolism so read up on this regimen.

Peace, health, and wealth will follow. :)

how long are the rides when you get a good one?

Sometimes in salvador I could surf about 300 yards like a couple minutes of cutbacks and top turns and drops :D

maybe 20-30 seconds on average, probably a minute or so for really good ones. Central cal is known for always having decent waves. It rarely gets super shitty and it rarely gets super amazing (sometimes though).
 
Today I just did the opening sequence of vinyasas for ashtanga. it only takes 15 minutes or so but is enough to get an ok sweat.
 
Lots of hiking here in Arizona. Going hiking today with FuturePig and my dad. Gonna be a good day. My legs are loving the burn :D
 
Did my triathlon yesterday, smashed it! Not sure of my time yet but it felt great.

Today I might go for a quick run this afternoon, gotta start training for my next half-marathon in 6 weeks time.

^all movement counts, my friend.

today i focused on bis, lats and back. my forearm generally gets a good workout with this group too.

and i did my calves, gonna do my calves every visit from now on. today 130kgs x 10 x 4, then the 5th set i got to around 16 reps.
 
short fun sunday workout

2x(tricep cable extension, pullups) superset
2x(glute ham raise w/ mball, bicep DB curls) superset
1x hanging leg raises

and 1 hour of slow laps in the pool to decompress my crummy mood :)
 
just soaking in sun while reading uni crap on this gorgeously clear blue sky day at home with the cats. thank gee for RDOs.
 
oh man
bodypump using heavy weights (during the leg sections, sweat was dripping from my elbows)
followed by extra shoulder, chest, tris, bis and calves work on the weights.
