When I Started:
Jan, 2002
How I Started:
After seeing the twin towers fall and seeing the people who did it worked out before they got on the plane I decided if I was ever in that position they weren't gonna take me without a fight. Now it's just become part of my life.
Why I Love It:
Like the new look and the way it feels.
How I Stay Motivated:
A friend of mine from work keeps me going if I don't feel like it. Most days I'm good to go though.
One week down of not lifting, one to go. What’s worse is walking past the chinup bar after my runs and not being able to do a few sets. The pinched nerve is getting better so there’s no reason to do anything stupid.Once I get better I’m also thinking of joining NYSC. I’ve never belonged...
I am flexible to go to the grass, but the deeper we go on squats, the more stress on the knees, which is why I haven't pushed for depth. Parallel should be enough, I hope.
I added pullups to my back routine about 6 weeks ago as a warm up exercise. Right now I have only been doing wide grip pullups. I plan to add weighted pullups after I reach a goal of 50 pullups in only 2 sets. When I first started it took me 5 sets to do 50 reps, as of this past tues. it only took 3 sets. Progress!!!!!!
thanks for the shout out man. you've got some solid times. impressed by your motivation, too. and when I find those b!tches we call abs, i'll let you know. LOL
nice guns in the avi man. how's your training going? 14 miles is a haul. I just started running. doing about 5 miles per day in the hopes to start shredding. how are your times going in training?
That September run sounds look a good one. Good luck with your training. If you can try to complete a training run of about 11-12 miles 10-14 days before and you should be good to go.
