Well since i didn't go to the hockey game i decided to make my way to the gym again.....twice today, first time ever


3mile run

3x20 xball crunches
3x15 oblique twists

10min elliptical intervals. 50 seconds at a medium pace (~130 strides/min) then 10 seconds of as fast as my legs could take me (~240 strides/min)

12/23/2009 8:13:50 PM

Walked half of a mall

12/23/2009 8:15:10 PM

walking lunge 176 steps (a bit over 200 m)

12/24/2009 5:39:33 PM

absolutely nothing.....

12/24/2009 7:14:50 PM

bulked

12/24/2009 8:35:44 PM

12/24/2009 9:42:43 PM

12/24/2009 9:45:04 PM

Do you notice an advantage w/ the grips?

12/24/2009 9:48:48 PM

they are much easier to use than the Elites/Elite II (don't need chalk)

also being able to use the measurements on the bands instead of having to guess heights is a huge plus

12/24/2009 9:49:45 PM

I ended up grip taping mine.

I bet I could paint lines for length.


hmmm

12/24/2009 9:54:05 PM

Did I mention they're much easier to put up/take down (assuming you don't just leave them up all the time)



note: I am in no way associated with Tyler Hass or the Elite/EliteII/EXF Rings

ha

12/24/2009 9:56:33 PM

I bought some straps that I tied off and I loop them around, and into a carabeener on each side. All I do is adjust the length as needed.

Granted, this only works if you have access to a ladder (which I do at most places that I've used 'em)

12/28/2009 10:17:27 AM

In other news, I got a heart rate monitor (the kind you wet and strap to your chest) and a watch combo for Christmas.

My resting heart rate is just around 60-65.

I did some shuttle runs outside. My max was 173. The average was 142.

12/28/2009 10:18:28 AM

60-65 seems kind of high for a runner

12/28/2009 10:19:15 AM

Well it wasn't literally when I got up.

So...I dunno.

12/28/2009 10:47:56 AM

St. Louis half marathon is in April.

Need to start training soon...

What was the point of jumping around in weight so much?

12/28/2009 10:52:03 AM

My HR is usually higher when I first get up than a normal "resting" HR. When I'm just sitting around and check, it's usually in the 55-60 range.

12/28/2009 11:12:22 AM

Made a 4 egg omelette with spinach and bacon.

It was glorious.

12/28/2009 12:34:52 PM

12/28/2009 12:45:49 PM
