Did my PRT today. I ran the mile an a half in 10:59 at 226 lbs. I need to lose this weight faster. Cause I ran it last year in 10:30 at 218 lbs.

The Speed Bag burn machine is what u need

Unless that thing can tell time or has a GPS with a MP3 player on it. IT aint doing shit for me right now.

What I need is to get my son to be able to ride the hills on his bike by himself so we can hit the trails this summer. All this good weather and I cant take him with me when I go running.

Aight then just trying to help lol

I watch those vids though. If I wasnt training for a 10K, I would cop it.

Do one arm deadlifts for big forearms and overall muscle growth....it works just as much muscle if not more than squats. It has alot of carry over strength to other exercises as well.

They have a P90x 2 out now. I havent seen the commercials again since I had a late night study session but it is copying a little of Insanity!

Black_Samson · April 2012

Put up 210 easy shrugging on the calf rack. I know i can go higher, but the foam is worn to shit...

J-GUTTA · April 2012

Finally cleared 245 for a good 5 clean reps on the bench

FroHawke · April 2012

I use Perfect Pushup...getting all sorts of gains *hodgetwin voice*

Seriously though, that coupled with creatine/whey supplements, don't fuck with anything else.

i need to start doing some new ab exercises. it looks fine now, but i want a six pack and i'm just not getting the definition i want with the crunches/sit-ups and pilates i'm doing. what do y'all do for those killer abs?

it's all about the right diet. avoid sugar at any occasion...
i used to work out my abs like any other muscle meaning doin 3x8 instead of hundreds of sit-ups, worked fine in combination with the sit-ups

GTariq · April 2012

Anyone else have a tough time contracting their core when trying to work abs during exercising?

@GTariq

What do you mean?

As in holding tight so you can hold your legs off the floor for an extended period of time? Do you do mason twists?

Anyone know a good biceps workout without the use of dumbbells/barbells and pullups?

Yea a variation of chin ups lol

U can do some where u slowly ascend and slowly descend through the whole motion. You'll really feel it.

I have one of those and you have to bolt it up if your door way is not wide. I am over 200lbs so my shit bending a little. i have a sturdy one that I use the majority of the time. It is not a fancy but it is sturdy as hell.

Pull ups are the best work out. My traps have never been so big.
I dont have to weigh myself to know if I gained weight. I can feel it off top while doing a pull up. funny I think it is a good thing sometimes to gain cause I get a better workout.

Black_Samson · April 2012

Shrugged 300 for 3 sets of 5!!! Shoulders are a lil bruised

Not exactly a specific exercise. I just know during these insanity workouts, the main person keeps expressing contracting your core during the exercises. Some exercises I can do it easily, others I struggle.
