    @JK totally!! My PT has told me about a close call he had with a guy during a session (hadn't eaten, was training a bit macho etc) but he only needed to overnight in hospital.

    JFC!

    Turned up at the gym this morning and found the squat racks and surrounding area taped up. Turns out a new member had a heart attack last night right there. Only joined mid week as his wife wanted him to get in shape. So dam rough! Apparently he fainted then came around, felt funny and fainted again to never come back!

    Made for a pretty solemn training sessioning this morning

    That's terrible. Shows how important it is to make those lifestyle changes before it gets too late. Perhaps also shows that you have to ease into it rather than go too hard too early as many unfortunately do.

    That's awful. My father was an Ambulance Officer and used to talk about collecting overweight guys in their 40s off the Squash Court.

    Very sobering to think about.

    Good little high intensity session this morning. Smacked out the old ultimate300 that one of the transformation crews used to do. Takes about 20mins

    50 reps each of
    Squats @ 50kg
    Bench @ 50kg
    Barbell reverse crunches - on the bench with the 50kg
    Deadlifts @ 50kg
    Box jumps
    Clean and press @ 30kg

    Did them in that order and completed each exercise in least amount of sets as possible before moving to the next.

    Peice of piss until the clean and press. Think did the box jumps too fast!

    @JK left the best (hardest) till last! Reckon it 'only' being 30kg could lull you into a false sense of security too. That'd be total cake if you were fresh... expect you aren't at the point!

    Got a saturday session for deadlifts, shoulders and a tweak up of the old arms so week actually wasn't closed out.

    Yesterday managed to get out for an hour on the bike so another 20km in the saddle - nothing too strenuious but out around the local beaches and up and down the local volcanoes (North Head and Mt Vic) so a bit of hill work in there. Just looked back and managed over 250km on the bike for August which is a massive increase for me. In no way am I a cyclist but quite enoying it at the moment. Will never catch me in any lycra tho!

    Oh and 20mins on the bike to finish but was bit of a cruise to be honest. Spent most of the time watching the swimming at the para swimmign world champs or whatever it's called. A few guys doing butterfly with no arms were awesome, pretty much just porpoising. The dive in looked hilarious tho and as for the final touch with their heads to finish the race....ouch!
