Do you row at all Nico ?


No, I've never rowed; I used an ergo a fair bit for training and it was bloody hard work. And i never realised how many athletes we have on here. 56 seconds for 400 sounds bloody quick! I think 90 seconds is probably more in my current league. Under 70 would e pretty tidy going for me at some point. I do have these stupid long legs though, so I'm sure if I can get the lungs up to speed and stretch out a bit, I shouldn't be too horribly slow (although nowhere near 56 secs).
i'm off out for a run now. 20 minutes will see me cross off a notch n the running for time targetWink

395.0 kgs @ 75kgs UnEq		i miss running, good goals mate i think you're right setting high targets.
400m is the longest sprint there is, while running two hours is a different kettle of fish.
What target would you like to hit first? The long, the short or the 20 reppers!?

Cheers Mish. Realistically and through necessity, I'll be working my way up the long run first. I'll be doing a bit of everything at the same time though. I think a couple of weeks to get the run over an hour and then have a crack at 3OOO metres to get it on the first step of my ladder (20 minutes) and likewise for the 400m.

As far as the weights go, I'll get 80 kilos or so floor to overhead while concentrating on the running.For the bench I'll start knocking off the bottom couple of rungs as well. Squats I'm working up in fives at the minute. I might try a 20 when I'm on 130-140 for fives.

For deads, I'm going to have a bash at sumo, so I'll not be trying anything heavy until I'm happy with everything technique wise. Chins I'm just starting to do chins regularly again, so we'll see with them.

As you might guess, some of these challenges are not even on the radar at present. I like the idea of having goals that don't seem to go together (long runs/400m/heavy squats); I also like the idea of filming all target attempts because given that I train at home alone it gives me an edge.

Hope that all makes sense Happy

At 17 with rifle, helmet and "gear", in my boots I ran 400m in 59 seconds, the top grade was sub 1 minute, I was pleased with that!

Cheers Shaun. I prefer working my way up a ladder and knocking off targets rather than having one hit or miss aim.

Chins bw for 10 done.

I filmed it obviously, but it cut out after 2 reps. The camera told me that the memory card was full. It is only the first step for this target, so I won't bother repeating it just to get it on film.

Cheers jon-the crackpipe is the only way to go. By the time I get round to 200 for 20, someone will probably have invented some crazy virtual reality filming technique so that I am there squatting in your living roomHappy

Today I did a run for 30 minutes.

50 kilo floor to overhead done.

60 kilo floor to overhead done.

I also redid the bodyweight chins because I wasn't happy about not having a video. They were slightly less beautiful this time due to me being a bit knackered by the time I got to them.

Ok, problem with youtube, I now can't access the video. I'll try again later. Hopefully the overheads work.

Ok, seems to be working now.
