Bloody hell.

 

I'm trying to get fit at the moment but if I tried that I'm sure death would swiftly follow.

I would have smashed that in my Army days. Now? Not so much.

 

I would struggle to do 1 pull up!

Time to beat is 18 1/2 minutes!!!

It would take me that to do my solitary pull up!

the floor wipers killed me, 50kg barbell doing those was by far the hardest, apart from the pull ups which i have never been any good at.

Just seen a demonstration of a 'floor wiper' on youtbe. Oh the humanity.....

[Nexstar]

Hmm, may give this a go (or as close to as I can) in the next few days. Won't be able to deadlift though as I don't have a barbell.

[Nexstar]

Pullups - 25 reps

Pushups - 50 reps

24-inch box jumps - 40 reps

Floor wipers - 50 reps

Single-arm Clean-and-Press with dumbell - 40 reps

Pullups - 20 reps

 

Did the above in 21 minutes and it sure is a killer. Think my back suffered the most (doesn't like pullups)

[Baj]

Bloody hell and I thought karate was knackering last night, which was

1 min bag work

1 min situps

1 min sparring

1 min bag work

1 min push ups

1 min sparring

repeat until collapse.

What I find impressive about this training programme is that it can all be done at pure gym in Bitterne at only £16.99 a month with £20 joining fee. The gym is open 24 hours and there is no contract. Personal training is also avaliable.

Hup 2-3,

Then the other eyelid...

Aching pretty much all over this morning!

Good effort mate. This is apparantly a warm up one to start with and then move onto the one in the OP once you can complete this

25 bodyweight rows

50 bodyweight squats

50 pushups

50 jumping jacks

50 mountain climbers

50 close grip pushups

25 bodyweight rows

Not done this one yet but will give it a go tomorrow. You can swap excercises with the other one so maybe swap squats for deadlift if no bar available?

If I have no bar, what is a good substitute for a bodyweight row? I've found some bloke on youtube doing a very strange exercise (

) and when I tried it my elbow felt like it was going to break.

they are a substiute for pull ups mate, so could do them if you can. That you tube clip is very odd!

hmmm, that is only 150kg, not that heavy at all really. I've done that myself a few years back. Funny vid all the same though.

[Smirking_Saint]

Might try these in a few weeks when i can start my gym work again, not really doing much ATM and its p*ssing me off, my physio won't even let me start swimming yet.

 

The only thing i am doing is the press ups, sit ups challenges on this site http://hundredpushups.com/ and TBF i can already see a difference.

 

But i need to step up my training as soon as i can. I still need to drop about a stone, i let myself turn into a fat b*stard over the past few years and i am paying for it now. Still 1 1/2 stone down and working my ass off to get the rest gone. Its the beer that does it.

[Thedelldays]

get some stanzolol and dianabol in you

[Smirking_Saint]

Not up for steroids

[Thedelldays]

ok...get some NO Xplode....gives you a right kick..

It was actually one of those skinny Turkish bodybuilders with body image problems.

[Thedelldays]

were you cruising for ass again, deppo..?

[saint francis]

I will stick to my bike!!

That's unfortunate, perhaps try Andrex next time.

[Deppo]

were you cruising for ass again, deppo..?

 

Yep. They've stopped letting me HMNB Devonport for all that lovely cock. Apparently, they were all fighting over me.

[Deppo]

They don't call it Guz for nothing!

Oh thats okay then, for a minute i thought you might be into beefcakes. I'd suggest we meet up but you seem to be trying to hook up with Liquidshokk at the moment, so i dont want to stand in the way of true romance for a meaningless fling.

[Tac-tics]

These all look bloody painful!! 'no pain, no gain' I suppose, will give a couple of these a try after all the toblerone and Peroni this christmas!

The hundred push ups site looks interesting, thanks for the link. I've never really done any weights or strength work at all. I do a fair bit of running (miniumum 10 miles a week) but am keen to to build myself up a bit. I'll try this as a base and see how I get on. It'll be a long time before I am getting near this work out though!
