Been down my local gym again today, really pleased with myself.

Managed 50 mins on treadmill covering a distance of 10 KM. Constant speed of 12 KM/H.

Done 10 mins on rower then and some free weights and then cool down.

First time i've ever ran 10 KM (6.25 miles) and i was surprised i found it quite easy! All the hard work running on road and treadmill has paid off at last  :)

What are your fitness regimes?

My post round is a good workout too, lugging 20 kg bags up and down driveways.

I mainly do free weights at home, i've only been back at it 3 months. I could post my whole routine but it would probably be a bit long.

Monday - Back and Biceps/Forearms
Tues - Abs
Wed - Chest/Triceps
Thurs- Abs
Fri- Shoulders and Legs

As I am looking for mass I only do cardio on a machine once a week at the moment (elliptical trainer) obviously this doesn't mean I don't do walking etc. When I will 'cut' i.e lose bodyfat this will be upped to 3 times a week and mean I have to eat very clean. Really I should be 'clean bulking' now but it is about 65% good 35% not so. Still I try and get around 200g protein each day and only supplement with Whey protein and glutamine.

Sounds a good routine you have there.

I am toning rather than building mass so plenty of running is needed.

5 right hand reps with a a pint of Guiness at slowly decreasing weight.Repeated 10 times with a cool down walk home.

Your bigger than me, else i'd laugh!

ha ha, love it!

I play 5 a side three times a week, and then a match on sunday mornings thats about it.

Depends, I try and stick to some routine but its goes out the window in the summer

Football Monday nights
Tuesday lunch time, sometimes tuesday night
Wednesday Night
Some Thursday Nights
When the season starts Sunday mornings again

Sadly when night draws in, I only play football tuesday lunch, wednesday and sunday so then I spend more time doing weights and some running.

I just do it to keep fit, because im never going to be able to build up any sort of muscle mass

Actually I cycle to and from work and walk the dog twice a day.

The self love gives massive biceps  :wink:

Yeovil, the way you described yourself on here i was expecting to meet someone resembling Jim Royle but was shocked when i met you.

:Ride On Fatbury's Lovestick: thanks I think :|

I just need to quit the cancer sticks now  :doobie:

harsh but true, Yeovil cuts a slender figure of a gentleman!

7 a-side most weeks on a monday or Tuesday for an hour and a half. Weds more football training for 2 and a half hours. 6-a-side on Thurs for 28mins ( :shock: ), then 11-a-side on sunday mornings.

Football, football...obviously do strenous stuff everyday at work aswell.

My cocks so big I have to vigourously wank it off using both hands.

Gives the old biceps and triceps a good going over :nuts:  :nuts:  :mrgreen:

my recent hernia operation is a very good excuse to do fuck all exercise for a long time

 :king:  :king:  :king:

Oxford fan, are you coming to the Wycombe game for sure?

pretty sure, i'll let you know later tonight if thats alright

i'm naturally stacked  :?  :D

Ok mate.

Can you give me an exact location where to meet you, i.e a road name.

I'll look it up in my Oxford A-Z  8)

I know where that is now mate, under by-pass and by the post office?

ive started going to the gym for the last month or so. im doing more weights than fitness like treadmill, cross trainer etc...

i usually do about 15 minutes on the bike, i would go on the treadmill more, but buggers my knee up!

the post office is one of the shops along the front of elms parade opposite the seacourt pub, yes

Let me know later then.

We could just get the tickets on the night, can't see it being a sell out  :soapy tit wank:

I just went for a 4 mile run.

What do you want a fucking medal?  

I just climbed the stairs to my bedroom.  You don't see me pining for fucking accolades do you?

 :D

My regime of late has been 10 mins running at about 10.5km/h, then 2 sets of 8 on bench press, bicep curl, pec deck, leg thing, lateral pull-down, free weights, another 10 min run.  But it tends to vary every month as I get bored!

:(

Apologies.  Very impressive nozza.

How long did that take you?

I was running with other people and I didn't know the way, so I had to go at their pace and I couldn't run ahead.  I am not quite sure about the time, all I remember is lots of hills.
Up then Down
Up then Down
 :evil:

huggable i think the phrase is  :oops:

I used to be well fit but then at the end of last season I had to give up rugby so that I could concentrate on getting the grades to go to a god uni. So I really have only played village cricket to get any exercise. I look forward to taking rugby back up again in a couple of years though.

Bearing in mind your career choice, that must be the best Uni for you to go to!

No offence, obviously.

You do swear on here a lot for a (future) man of the the cloth mind  :shock:

Yes I know I swear a lot but it is all about the people that you are around. I go to the pub and to football and swear a lot. On sunday I don't go to church and swear.

Can I also note that although I swear a lot I never blaspheme.

Until i fucked up my knee playing footy last week, my gym routine was as follows....

30 mins treadmill (around 6-7km)
15 mins rowing (around 2-2.5km)
Various weight machines for the lower body
Various weight machines for the upper body
30 mins swimming
30 mins steam room

Try to do that at least thrice a week, injury has put paid to that :x  for the time being, just doing swimming and upper body weights at the moment :(

nice work village, flip, compared to most of you lot, im pretty unfit!!

im off to the gym at 11, so, try to do 20 mins on treadmill at best!

I generally do twice a week at gym - tho you could split it into 4 times a week if you did just weight or cardio on a day each

Day 1 - 1 hour of weights - large muscles
3 sets each of 15 for Stomach Crunch, Side Abs and Back Muscles
Then 15 mins on Cross country cross trainer
15 mins of Rowing Machine
10 Mins of running machine (flat out!)
5 mins Step Machine
5 mins warm down on bike

Day 2 - 1 hour of weights - small muscles then the same as above

seems to be working well at present

 :old:

I never go to the gym, don't eat salad, and drink too much beer.


As you can imagine, i am not likely to be used in an advert for a healthy lifestyle...

Blackcurrant, wanking is exercise, you must be quite fit.  :soapy tit wank:

i did 10 minutes on the running machine, and my knee was playing me up so stopped.

then did all the weights (about 30 reps for each one)  then went on the bike for 10. pretty rubbish really.

Johno if your knee plays up on the running machine .. try a flat (incline zero) EFX? :?

that is on a flat incline!

Oi, you fucker!!!  :x  :evil:

yes but the EFX takes the weight off your knees .. EFX = cross trainer

oh right! yeh the cross trainer is much easier. should use that really!

but use a flat incline on the EFX cross trainer in place of a run

Cross trainer feels like your moon walking !

Johno, allways stretch before and after running and warm up and then warm down after.

You can really damage your muscles otherwise and yours knees were probally hurting because you didn't stretch and warm up before hand.
