My training thread, progress, advice etc

[Gandalf]

I really disagree with all this training and health business as I model myself on counter culture rebels rather gym instructors, but knowing your precarious health situation it is good to see you being pro-active and trying to keep on top of things.

You don't actually look that skinny or emaciated. Just a short guy who seems to be looking after himself. Pound for pound I think I probably look thinner than you.

Keep up the good work, young hobbit. I will give you an A- for effort.

Cheers Miles. I've just finished my latest 8 week program today and next week will start a new 10 week one.

I think I'm going to stick to two whole body weight's workouts for now, and will split after this new program. Going to add some cycling and change my Fitness Evolved workout from Nice and Easy to Break a Sweat. Looking forward to it.

Ive set myself the goal of getting to 15% bodyfat dead, and increasing my bodyweight from 133 to 135/6.

I think that's realistic.

Great job, you look good, do you eat well? Do you eat many raw uncooked foods?

Bilbo you look like Lance Bass, haha. You should do pilates, it the only other gay workout I could think of that your not doing yet. J/k....you could do knee lifts with that hefty chick sitting on your knee. Ok I'm sorry I apologize for everything I just said. Get a job.

I have no idea who Lance Bass is but I assume he is a small, but lean, rugged and rather handsome young man.

I just started day 1 of a new 10 week program with some rowing followed by a new Fitness Evolved program called Break a Sweat.

Fuck me that was hard work!

What is Fitness Evolved, I assume it's some kind of fad workout thing, but what is the theory behind it?



Lance Bass is the one on the right btw.

This is Fitness Evolved



It's for the Xbox with Kinect and is awesome fun.

The UFC are bringing out there own personal trainer next month as well and I'm tempted to get that after my latest 10 week program. As a big UFC fan this looks so fucking cool to me..

Haha, we seem to be magnets for hate. You cunt!

Been looking at powerbars online tonight, they go over the doorframe allowing you to perform pullups and chinups. I feel that pullups especially are an important compound exercise and I would benefit from being able to do them.

I only have dumbells at home so no barbell work and it's hard to really work your back. I do bent over rows, and, well that's it.

So I might get this JML Iron Gym Total Upper Body Workout Bar: Amazon.co.uk: Sports & Leisure

anyone use one?
