ZoEd Posted January 18, 2008 Share Posted January 18, 2008 Thanks I'm gonna e-mail the reps for a sample of Purple Wraath. I'm using White Flood and Green Magnitude right now. You will not be disappointed with the White Flood. Gave me exceptional pumps, and really did help with keeping the focus all the way through a heavy session. I did notice that after a while I did build up a tolerance with it. But all in all its great stuff and doesn't taste to bad. I'm so pumped to get to the gym tomorrow so I can give it a try. I've been struggling getting out of bed the last couple of days because I've been dragging ass. Cutting out carbs is harder than I expected and I'm trying to stay away from stimulants to avoid the crashes and headaches. We'll see how it works for me in the morning. :applause: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PCS Posted January 22, 2008 Share Posted January 22, 2008 Alrighty then. Getting back into the swing of things, slowly but surely. Signed off ES, got up off my butt this evening and went to the gym. Following up on last weeks workout. Place was pretty open tonight. Probably a combination of New Years resolutions already getting broken and the Sundance film festival going on in town. Cool. I can hit it hard with no waiting. Legs and arms. Only 2 sets of 8-10 because it's been awhile since I have done them. :doh: Part of the new workout plan is to do Abs between every set. Which I did. Movement in general could be a problem over the next few days. Close grip bench DB curls Tricep push downs EZ Bar curls Forearms Squats Calves Will add on sets and exercises in few weeks. I also changed my diet over the past few months. Eating once every 2 hours until after work. Little meals with a couple of snacks in between. Dinner is after the workout with a small shake before bed. This, obviously, has done some things to the old metabolism and I am pleasantly surprised with the results. Definitely has helped keep the wasteline down, (actually shrinking it some), while I have not been visiting the gym as much. My trip to the grocery store tonight after the workout reflected this new diet as well. See what happens now that I'm getting back into the gym. Cardio, well, has to get better. Can't get any worse. Time to get back into the HIIT and some jogging in between the weight days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigMike619 Posted April 23, 2008 Share Posted April 23, 2008 Whats joint mobility? My joints get stiff all the time and I need to strech them out and would be very interested in knowing what that was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raub Posted April 23, 2008 Share Posted April 23, 2008 Whats joint mobility?My joints get stiff all the time and I need to strech them out and would be very interested in knowing what that was. Right now I'm doing a routine called Super Joints. It's basically joint rotations and stretches that you do every morning. Usually takes me about 20-30 minutes. It has helped me big time with flexibility. I bought the book from here: http://www.dragondoor.com/b16.html It might seem pricey, but to me it has been worth it. My joints feel like I took 10 years off them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raub Posted April 24, 2008 Share Posted April 24, 2008 Today was a light day. 7 miles on the bike and some stretching/ab work. I love this time of year, nice and sunny and not hot as **** yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PleaseBlitz Posted April 24, 2008 Share Posted April 24, 2008 Are we doing this again? Sweet. Yesterday i did legs and abs. I have a new leg workout. 10 sets of 10 jumping (plyometric) squats and 4 sets of kettlebell lunges. I could only get through 7 sets of the squats yesterday.

MikeSellers45 Posted April 24, 2008 Share Posted April 24, 2008 Ran the mile in school for the first time today in a while, either since eraly fall or last spring, and I got my best time ever. I ran a 8:18, almost two minutes faster than my previous best of 10:06 last time I ran it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wshngtn1 Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 P90X - been doing it for 2 months. It's good stuff...especially if you start out out of shape. Also running 3 miles a few times a week. I've dropped 30lbs of wings and beer from last football season. Now I need to drop another 15 or so to make room for next season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raub Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 Today's an off day. I'm going to do absolutely nothing and love it. It's also my weigh-in day. I've lost 22 pounds since February. 15 more and I'll be satisfied. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArmchairRedskin Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 I've been taking classes for 4 weeks now. I take boxing twice a week, boot camp once a week, and every other week I take what they call a powerup class. Boot camp class is brutal, boxing is fun, and powerup class has a hot trainer. When they gave me my assessment right when I started, I had 17% body fat. I weighed in at 150 and they told me I have 123 Lbs of muscle/bones. I'll probably get an assessment next week to see if I've made some progress. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disco Dave Posted April 26, 2008 Share Posted April 26, 2008 I've heard that P90X is a kick in the balls. Super tough. I just started doing P90x and it is tough. I never realized how out of shape I've gotten. I recommend it to everyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HIGHLY recommened...definitely worth the money. You never reach a comfort zone because you are always switching things up. I'm on week 9 and I'm still sore every single day. 3 more weeks and I'll be done with round 1. Then after two weeks of hard cardio I'm starting round 2. It's definitely not an informercial gimmick.

PCS Posted May 2, 2008 Share Posted May 2, 2008 Finally getting the consistency back in the workouts. Tuesday was the upper body, (heavy day), tomorrow will be a heavy legs and arms day,(see if the knee is healed up enough for that). Weather will be getting better so jogging will be back in play again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
