What distances?

Managed to set new PR's for both the 5k and 10k last weekend.. Motivates me to train even more and go for even better times, plus it's a nice step towards a new half marathon PR as well.

it's olympic - 1500M Swim, 40k Bike, 10k Run

I'm aiming for a sub 3:30 - 17min swim, 1:30bike, 1:30 run

My 10k average is about 1hr, I'm trying to move that to a sub 55min 10k which is totally doable, just not sure how my legs are going to feel after I get off the 24m bike.

I see, I am not really up to speed on triathlon but I knew there was some kind of Olympic distance next to the full triathlon.

I'd like to do that as well some day but I hate swimming. Maybe a winter triathlon next year (this winter is too soon), it has speed skating instead of swimming.

I'll stick to running for now. As I said, there are some PB's to be broken the coming months.

1.30 on the 10k is entirely doable, that's called walking Especially when you can do it in around an hour when you're just running. Not sure how I'd feel after the swimming and cycling, though. Good luck!

lol after swimming and biking, it's called JELLO. I'm sure once I get going on the run coming out of T2, i'll be ok after the first mile but the fucked up part is the first mile goes from Riverside Park across w 72nd street into Central Park. So basically that first mile is lined with people standing around cheering you on, that's probably when i'll be walking or at least jogging. When I get into the park on my run I'm having a spotter at mile marker 2 meet me for a half mile run and get the nutrition I need to finish (salt tab, gu gel, and 2 orange slices) by then I'm sure I'll be way depleted.

Keep up on the running man, head towards that half m then go for the full marathon! Olympic Tri is the one of the larger events, the sprint distance is way shorter. The next level above Olympic is HIM (half iron man), then a full IM. I plan on doing that as I progress in the sport, funny..I'll light a cig up at the finish line as I cross lol

I already do half marathons quite regularly, it might even be my favourite distance. I started training for a full M last year, but I quit two weeks before the event because I didn't think I'd make the finish anywhere decent, and I don't want to do a 5-hour marathon.

That should be quite the picture

Originally posted by Gauss I've got a new personal record in squat yesterday, 5x120 kg. Currently at 71 kg body weight on empty stomach.

17 days later I weight 73 kg on empty stomach. Abs are still visible after gaining 9-10 kg in 3.5 months. Goal is 78-80 kg by spring, after that I'll cut until I see veins on my stomach.

hello everyone...

Im just starting to work out, and starting to really be serious about it as well....

It kind of tough just being able to start out when I dont know much about it..but im doing as much reading and researching as I can on the best diets and how to work out each muscle etc etc....
i have a copy of "The new Encyclopedia of Modern Bodybuilding" By Arnold Schwarzenegger.... And I have to say its very helpful when it comes to...well anything.....

at the beggining of november, I was 215...im now at about 195....This drop wasnt because of working out and diet, It was due to alot of stress and no eating enough, but it was a good reason to maybe start and keep the weight off since I been wanting to do it for a while....I want to get down to 180 (Im 6 ft btw) and im not sure if thats too much to drop or too little....I dont want a huge body building physique, but I do want very good definition....

I started using hydroxycut for aid in shedding some extra pounds quickly, and im aware thats its not that good for you, but im planning on not using it in the future, this is a quick fix for me a suppose....it helped shed almost 5 pounds in a week and a half so.....im ok with it for now

As for diet, I used to eat the worst foods all the time....at least 4 cans of pop a day, chips burgers, wings, etc...all the bad shit you can eat, that was my diet.....but now I try to drink only water....Actually been drinking about 3 litres a day, and getting in a salad almost everyday, fruits as well.....I try to stay away from a lot of things, I mean I try to keep it to eating grilled chicken wraps If I want something different from salad.....also try to get in a protein bar a day


Ive taken this routine right out of the arnold book...

Monday/Thursday:

Chest: Bench Press, Incline Press, Pullovers

Back: Chin-ups (as man as you can until you reach 50), Bent over Rows

Abs: Crunches, 5 Sets of 25 Reps

Tuesday/Friday:

Shoulders: Barbell Clean & Press, Dumbbell Lateral Raises

Upper Arms: Standing Barbell Curls, Seated Barbell Curls, Close-grip Press, Standing Triceps Extensions with Barbell

Forearms: Wrist Curls, Reverse Wrist Curls

Abs: Reverse Crunches 5 Sets of 25 Reps

Wednesday/Saturday:

Thighs: Squats, Lunges, Leg Curls

Calves: Standing Calf Raises, 5 Sets of 25 Reps Each

Lower Back: Straight LEg Deadlifts, 3 sets of 10, 6, 4 Reps to failure

Abs: Crunches 5 sets of 25 Reps

This is the level one exercise program.....eventually I'll move on two level 2, which is obviously more then level 1......

any comments that could help would be great

Wow, I lost two kilos of muscles, according to my nutritionist, thanks to a month full of stress and all-nighters.

I kind of like it though, my stomach is almost flat, and I also lost two kilos of body fat, so I'm where I want

To figure what out? This time around I did lose two kilos of fat and two kilos of muscle, but last month I lost three kilos of fat and gained some muscle...
