I was running around on the ward all day, so that must count for something. But today is my day off for weight training. I've made some noticeable gains over the past couple weeks.
 
11 1/2 hrs moving furniture up and down stairs, minus a little drive time. in fact, i'd recommend the moving business as a great means of gradual hard drug rehabilitation, as long as you don't mind the work, early/long hours... a willingness to smoke copious amounts of good marijuana doesn't hurt either:)
 
^If you're saying moving furniture up and down stairs all day would be good for recovering drug addicts, then I thoroughly agree with you. IMO, high volume exercise is the best for getting endorphins back in gear.
 
today i hit the bench (couldn't repeat last weeks record) and pecdeck.

Man, I just can't get the hang of this "cardio" thing.


It's like I totally SUCK at it. It's like I'm one of those...oh, what's the word for when someone is NEW at something?


Ugh, even my vocabulary's gone to hell...

go for a walk. seriously, i can't run anywhere near as far as i used to these days. i ran for less than 20 mins last night and it smashed me.

but funnily, since the start of summer, i've began to eat greasy kebabs for lunch and at the same time i've been losing weight. the how is i've got a 60 minute lunch break. i pick up a kebab so i can eat and walk, and then i walk for the whole hour. i can get all the way across town and back in that time (sydney cbd aint that big), and the results are startling. I listen to a university lecture from my phone and soak in the sun, and it's easy as piss.

This is why I take classes to get my cardio on. Direct me and I'll do it.
Machines bore me.

Tonight kickboxing class with rope jumping and pushups.
I got in 25 before dropping to my knees.

i miss my kickboxing and boxing classes. there's something motivating about being yelled at ;)

i got a bag up on my balcony, and am in desperate need of a motivating partner. someone time the rounds in turns with me. :(
 
Squats
Standing Presses
Rows

Pullups, dips, ab work. I killed the pullups and dips. The cute girl I've know since high school being there may have given me a little extra motivation ;)
 
1km run for warm up
Flat bench press
Decline bench press
Incline bench press
Push ups

all 6 sets x 6 reps. I think its abit weird but my trainer reckons for pure body building muscle mass, its the way to go

just use him!! I kinda already thought you did after seeing Ebow's face after haning out with you. I know I know, that happened after you left, that's your story but you can PM me the truth, I can handle it. :D


I've been sick for the better part of a week. DAmn sinus cold bullshit. Going to attempt to run tomorrow morning. Oh yah, finally running again on my bum ankle.
 
Did two sets of 20 pushups and 2 sets of crunches till failure this morning. Lifted yesterday.. cannot wait to go tomorrow.

Going to start some cardio here in march or April. Need to really watch it because I lose weight so easily. I will probably start a thread asking for suggestions. I already take alot of walks, especially when its nicer out. Spring isn't too far away, shit pitchers and catchers report for spring training on the 17th.

Slipped up and bought 1 pack of cigarettes and smoked it over the week, but I'm not going to kill myself over it and am just going to get back on the patch here starting next week.
