My training thread, progress, advice etc

[Andre]

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

[No Contest]

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.

[Kev]

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..

Ah, back to your old ways.

[Kev]

what do you mean Andre?

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?

[Kev]

Another good workout down, slight strength increase so all good.

Thanks for all the feedback on my workout bar idea, it seems you are really not embracing my new home in the cool and swanky culture board.

Ah well, at least I have some peace and quiet..

My weekly weigh in today, and a bit of an anomoly. According to my scales my bodyfat is still 16.1%, unmoved for the last month now, but my bodyweight had increased by two whole pounds.

This is weird as I've been 135.1 for the last month, every Monday, now I'm 137.1.

I will retest tomorrow to ensure I wasn't just constipated or something but if this the case it might mean I'm actually growing some muscle at last. If my bodyfat stays the same I'm happy to gain weight of course as presumably most of it must be muscle mass.

I'd love to get back to 140lbs again, this time of lean(er) tissue.

I took a day off yesterday, first in 11 days and am getting back into things with a row, and Kinect session this evening.

Amazed I'm still keeping this up!
