Bart if I absolutely have to have a beer do you reckon the low carb Macs or Pure Blondes are better ( bearing in mind any beer has fuck all carbs in the first place ) -
Well, the Wounded Knee is a bit sore, but not as sore as my shoulders which probably got overdone yesterday due to the stupid knee. Bench press, seated tricep extensions, Military press, Upright row, Rear Delt rows with the new dumbells, rinse and repeat, followed by the usual ipod-Genius-mix-fuelled exer-cycle until my knee got too sore about 15mins in. <br />
<br />
Will see how it goes this time... -
Been trucking along with this and lost a bit of weight so far. It really is far more effective to combine avoiding empty carbs, crack into protein shakes, doing weights and cardio in that order for me. Gotta have that "day off" though.<br />
<br />
Very noticeable how much longer and faster I can pedal on "upper-body" days and how fast I burn out on "Leg" days! -
Still going here. Not happy with where I'm at, but happy I'm not where I was. <img src='http://www.daimenhutchison.com/invision/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=';)' /><br />

This stupidity happened the other day, I did my weights combo and then jumped on the bike. Because it counts backwards from whatever minutes you set it on I thought it was just a slow day, so made sure I maintained the speed all the way through my 30 minute user program. Made it, then while I was hobbling around trying to stretch whilst recovering I happened to glance at the screen and noticed the nice big "40" in the minute part. Explained the cramping pretty well.

Still going here! Have lost about 2inches off the waist, legs are startying to shape up, biceps are all good, pissed off with my bung shoulder though it's holding me back from doing bench press and tricep press. Grrr. <br />
<br />
Have got my 2010 season pass for Ruapehu, it's a good motivator to start some "proper" training for boarding. Calves, quads and hamstrings, crunches and lots of cardio. Have some good stairs at my place for the calves instead of the piece of 6x2 timber on the ground. <br />
<br />
Think I will be going into Tabata for cardio as I'm up to an hour of exercycling and am over that time outlay after work! -
Did you say something Bartman...? <br />

Unfortunately it's save save save for a while. <img src='http://www.daimenhutchison.com/invision/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/ohmy.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':)' />/ -
Okay Monday and Wednesday nights this week I did 2 sets of legs/chest (12 x seated quads, ham curls, calf raises/ bench press) then 6mins of bike, then 1 set of legs/chest and 10mins bike, 1 set of legs/chest then 15mins bike. Then did some jumps from the ground to the first (some to the second) step out the back. <br />
<br />
Then same again Tuesday and Thursday but did shoulders/arms/guts (standing row, bent over row, barbell curl, close grip bench press, dumb-bell preacher curl/weighted crunch) instead. Plus some things I've nicknamed "lateral twists" which involve a common old yard broom on the shoulders and doing a "washing machine" side to side for a minute with the brush side to the left and then to the right.<br />
<br />
Friday I did a bit of everything and then 20mins on the bike, a set of bench press and 10mins on the bike.<br />
<br />
World of good pain the day after each one. Day off today, day off Sunday and back into it. <br />
<br />
Bought a helmet for June 19th opening day at Turoa. It's hanging in front of the exerbike to remind me where I'm going! -
Recent weeks have been interesting, the exercycle suffered a failure of the electronic kind, rendering it a chocolate teapot about 4 weeks ago. In annoyance, I went for a jog. It took me about an hour to plod a few K's in my old Nike trainers that annihilated my feet. So I went and bought some proper running shoes and haven't looked back. I do 5KM nightly Sunday through Thursday, and it's about 200% more effective than that bloody bike. Dodgy knee so far has behaved, but I don't sprint. Ever. Went snowboarding weekend before last and was stoked with my fitness level - still sore the days after, but was punching into and out of the turns and loving it. <br />
<br />
Pre run am doing a light alternating circuit of chest/arms or legs/shoulders. Losing weight at a good clip and smiling.
