GORUCK Challenge
-
Started messing around with the kettlebells a couple days ago. I'm really liking the experience so far. Traditional weightlifting has just grown stale, for me. I needed something new, and this is definitely it. My plan is to get another week or so with them under my belt, and then go see an RKC trainer for a few sessions. I just want to make sure my repaired shoulder is strong enough first. So far so good.

once i do my challenge i can get this bastard off my car:
oh here are the rest of the weekdays:
as far as my workout i read the chain stitch massacre thread & decided Gile$ & Mega did enough running around for the three of us.
will make it up by waking up before my kids wake up & attempt to slip it to Tuesday. that will be my cardio for maybe 5 minutes if there is foreplay. i will then go clean out the gutters, wash Tuesday's truck & rent a tall ladder to finish painting the damn family room.
all you kids reading this get out there & do something before you end up like me

So after a few days with the kettlebells, I decided I should just do cardio today. Ease into those bells, you know? Meanwhile, I've been thinking to myself, "I'm really not that sore; what's all the fuss about?" I left the house to go for a run – returned about ten minutes later. Holy shit. I was wrong. Dead wrong. I think I need to go take a nap...

You're hooked now, aren't you?

Great article, Doug. Thanks for sharing. I wholeheartedly agree that proper rest and diet are just as, if not more, important than an extensive exercise regimen. I am a firm believer in a four-day-a-week schedule, after trying both the four day and six day methods for years. Rest is essential to let your muscles recover. In my case, I've been extremely limited in the amount of physical activity I was capable of, over the last 18 months; and now that I am doing better, physically, I am a bit over-zealous.
A gentle reminder to take it easy is appreciated; whether that was your intention or not, ha.

my way of getting in shape again is going to the gym 2-3times max. a week and when not going to the gym, it´s cardio time…so looks like that (just an example!):
monday, wednesday, friday = gym
- full body workout 60-75min.!
tuesday, thursday = cardio
- 30min. running or riding the bike
saturday, sunday = day off!
each morning right after waking up (except when doing cardio or going to the gym) and each evening right before going to bed, i do some sort of metabolic workout (2-3min. max.)...saturday and sunday as well!
if you want, i can also share my way of workout with you guys...nothing special though tbh.!
no matter what…and even if it's only a 5minute workout, bet you're feeling all relieved and shit afterwards! celebrate the moment Mickey
