Ran 3 miles and lifted legs after walking 27. Yup- tired
That'll do it, that's for sure. Gyms back open normal hours, so it's kettlebells for me tonight, then a two miler in the morning, weather permitting.
Man I'm sore all over from the past few days of lifting/cardio. Gotta push through it. Tourney tomorrow so I'm just gonna do cardio tonight.
I've been lazy. Well, not lazy, but I haven't been running or to the gym for a month. I have been playing a lot of golf, and when you play 3-5 hours a week, there's no much time to do anything else if I want to spend time with the family.
Figured I'd chime in. I'm starting the gym tomorrow. Due to an issue with my wrist, I'm gonna do about 10 days of strictly cardio and hope my wrist gets better so I can start some lifting.
My main issue is always eating clean, so I need to get myself mentally prepared for the change in food selection.
The gym ruined my swing this year, lol...
I had some size when I played football years ago. And although I've always strength trained from one degree to another, this winter I tried once again to pack on the size.
At 46 yrs old, it wasn't easy but once I hit a groove, the gains came. Muscle memory's fun even if their memory's a little shakier than they used to be ;-)
Anyway, 15 extra lbs was too much. At 5' 8", 220 lbs was a little extreme and my swing paid the price (have a pic but a little embarrassed to post a selfie-flex pic, lol...). I flat out couldn't swing a club with any athleticism at all. None.
So being one to go from one extreme to another, I basically stopped weight training (only once/week) and started biking more. The swing's back, I'm down to 200 lbs but being that I've YET TO PLAY, I said screw it and am back in the gym hard.
I have no in-between switch!
Well, THPers, I weighed myself this morning and to my surprise the number was 198. I don't think I've been sub-200 since I was in middle school. I'm stunned, and incredibly ecstatic to have hit and surpassed that 200 mark, since I had been hovering between the 205-208 range for the last month or so. With a BBQ weekend at a friend's place for the 4th, I'll have to watch my portions in order to stay here, though.
I have been lurking on this thread for a while now, so here goes. The wife and I started Weight Watchers June 1, at that time I was 240 lbs. Started the diet mainly for support for the wife, but knew it was time for me to lose some weight also. I'm 46 and 5'7" , my THP user name is also my nickname.."Pudge"..While I'm pretty sure I won't be getting any taller, I can get smaller. My long term goal is <200 lbs. but that is off in the horizon some where. I weighed 226 on July 1 so I'm down 14lbs in a month. I have read some great weight loss stories in this thread and hope mine will be one too. Thx in advance to all you folks for your support.
Just ordered DDP Yoga. Really want to improve my flexibility and increase strength with low-impact moves.
I kept tweaking my knees doing T25 (that and our living room shakes too much when we do it) so I stopped doing it months ago.
Really looking forward to DDP Yoga. I have read tons of positive things about it (even on body building forums) and cannot wait to get into it.
After a couple of days of rest, had leg day today. Squats, leg extensions and curls. Russian twists with medicine ball and knee lifts. Finished with 30 minutes on the elliptical.
