The gym, who goes?

[mofome]

seems like we have some in shape people on the board. im dreading the first big injury that all the old timers tell me about.

[diogee]

I have a powertec rack with high low lat tower, powertec fid bench, olympic weight set, captains chair, and recumberant bike at home so I don't have to fight the crowd at the gym.

[2Pac]

Weightlifting (to tone, not to be a beefcake meathead robzilla type) twice a week.

Basketball 3 times a week

Sprints 4 times a week

[mofome]

Sprints 4 times a week

i have some stuff at home, but i find it harder to stay motivated and work as hard from the house.

I agree...it can be very hard to get motivated at home. It's more of a convenience thing for me since my work schedule is all over the place and we have no 24 hr gyms here.

[thebigguy]

Gyms and I do not get along.

[ChuteBoxe]

I train at both home and the gym. At home I have the Powertec Multi-System Workbench. Absolutely love it. I have never used a bench that has been this great anywhere. I use it one hour a day, every day except Sunday, no fail. Normally after my post-work nap. I do however leave the house for my martial arts training. Twice a week I train Muay Thai, once a week I train BJJ. My BJJ trainer is trying to convince me to get a bowflex on top of it, as he claims it will help me a lot with my shoulder strength for omo plata's and my overall muscle flexibilty and core strength. I don't know how people can be lazy, I love working out.

gym time is fun time...mon, tues, thurs, fri for me...

and whoever said sprints 4 times a week is crazy...nobody runs sprints for the hell of it!

[pavyracer]

I lift weights three times a week and play golf and soccer on weekends. I also power-type on my laptop when I'm in this forum and power-work my abs every time jjgold opens up his mouth.

[louisvillekid]

[capitalist pig]

No gym MO, but I do 3 miles a day in soft sand on the beach.

[Quebb Diesel]

i wish i had soft sand on the beach even 100 miles close to me!

[thezbar]

Training five days a week.Lots of cardio at the present time. Spin classes mostly.Swimming soon,weights in a few months. 30 lbs gone since july, pushing to drop the final twenty by summer time.I need to be stricter with the diet in next two months which is no fun at all.
Our bodies were created for much more activity than we get living in today's world. To live longer and better exercise is a must.

I need to. I am getting out of shape and that is not good. I turned 30 last November and think its time to keep in better shape and watch what I eat. I may go purchase me a gym membership.

Man, I am tired!

[Otters27]

Used to be baseball pitcher. Now I run 25 miles a week and lift weights twice a week. I injured some cartiladge in my knee last summer. It was bitch, and I think it is coming back.

I injured some cartiladge in my knee last summer. It was bitch, and I think it is coming back.

Tell me about it...just got surgery on my right knee last week to scope out bad cartilage and do a lateral release. It is amazing how tough it is to wake up the quad after it has not moved for a week.

Is the scope and release going to put you back 100% eventually? I thought about surgury but not sure my injury is severe enough.

[diogee]

The doctor said that it won't be 100%...somewhere between 90-95%

[Matt23]

I need to start going... Mo, help me out with a work-out plan buddy.

BTW, I could stare at your avatar for hours on end...

[rugbybdyb]

Tuesday, thursday and Saturday I play rugby, Monday, Wed I swim, lift weights and do the eliptical machine, Im still working on getting back into shape but this should do it pretty quick....

[purecarnagge]

my workout to lose weight by this summer starts after the pro bowl. I hope to lose 25lbs by the end of summer... I plan on working out 3-4x a week lifting 2x a week.

Squats/military press/shoulder shrugs with bench bard. Crunches and pushupes/pullups and other excercies. Other than that I plan alot of interval running. I plan on just doing 3 sets of 12 of everything that should be enough for my purposes. I'm not a die hard workout guy, but i do want to drop weight so its a start I think. I plan on doing about 45 minutes of cardio which I consider fast walking or a jog with the interval sprints.

If people have tips pm me

[valdosta]

I average running a bit over 5 miles a day. I don't go to the gym, just lots of running to keep the weight down. I use my home gym sometimes though.

Good stuff, running is key.

Welcome to the forum by the way.

[HAPPY BOY]

I go to Shulas athletic club 4 x a week. Just trying to stay toned. Love the steam room its medicinal. If it wasn't for this the stress in my life would have killed me.

[nobshine]

Been working out religiously since 1979 at my local Y. 47 and needed scope on my right knee 2 years ago from a previous football injury. Was back on the raquetball court 1 month later. It pays to work out so you can abuse your body once in a while.
No more heavy lifting. Lots of cardio. What works for me is competition for cardio. Hoops, raquetball, or a workout partner to push you on machines.

pc, I lost a lot of weight by lifting heavy 3 days a week and doing HIIT twice a week. Eat 10% below maintainence calories and adjust downward as you drop the fat. As for specific foods focus on quality protein, fresh fruits n veggies, oats, yams and whey protein powder. Drink lots of water. Go to wannabebig.com and read everything you can on "cutting" and stick to it.

[jjgold]

I use to go when I was a stud, then had some issues with a few guys.

A curling machine, lat machine and power rack was stolen and the manager tried to pin it on me.
