So I am down beacause my right knee/ankle/hip is giving me gyp.... soI am going to try working out with weights every day to boost my metabolism in lieu of walking everywhere.
I know I will not make strength gains in this time
Bo/f has designed a routine to do three times in a circuit... intead of lumping all three sets together...

Bench
unweighted squats
Reverse pushup
Quad sets
military press
Leg raises(ankle pump)
tricep kick backs
HAmmer curls
Abs
I will give it a go for two weeks.... see how I fare

my measurements on day two of induction were as follows:

Chest:97cm
waist:79cm
hips:96.5cm
right thigh:57cm
left thigh:57cm


As of today measurements ar:
chest:93cm
waist72cm
hips;92.5cm
right thigh:55cm
left thigh:56cm

hmm will report back in two weeks

well I didn't think I would like my new workout set up, but it's not too bad at all, it makes me work hard, i am about to go do it again. Yay watch me get strong!

Welll I am back..... been a bit all over the place... but I am doing a twelve week "body blitz" so I have started a new program...
Since 12/05/03 I have been doing an upper body/lower body two daysplit...third day off as follows
DAy one:

Calve raises2x12
Adductors(pussy galore!)2x12

five mins of ATTEMPTED pull upsx2( I'll check in on progress)
Dumbbell military press2x12
crunches 2x20

Well after some experimenting I am doing one armed dumbell rows instead of pullups( soooo frustrating)
I ahve started hueng seng WIn chun kung fu, I have been five times this week!!! I love it!

Glarggh!! HAs it been so long since I have touched base with this gym log????
