again ... he's gone ...

ok - you got a gym nearby?? if yes, start a body pump class. but be warned .... the first time i did a class i was so sore i coulnt even walk down stairs ... or lower myself onto the loo ... it hurt so bad but it gets easier, and it really does strip it off you. your combining cardio and resitance in one hit.

or - take an hour - walk as far as you can in 1.2 hour, up some hills if you can. aim to stop in a park or somewhere and do lunges, squats, (if the grounds not wet) crunches, including your obliques, and some push ups if you can handle them (i hate them) - try for 3 sets of 12 reps all this should take about 15mins. then walk home, faster than you walked out, so you get home in the hour.

Yes I have a gym nearby but I'm not too keen on jumping into the whole gym scene straight away. I'll die doing a class.

Okay....walking etc like you said sounds alright -- I'll stick to the crunches etc at home instead of the park.....but I've been getting home pretty late lately and it's been dark some nights so maybe I need to invest in some machines -- A tredex costs about $1000 -- so fuck that......how about a stationary bike?

Or skipping? :? What other stuff can I do at home at night?

skippings one of the best cardio workouts you can get. im just too unco to do it even for a full minute

or any of those other excersises - you can get up 1/2 hour earlier and do them in front of the morning news. if you dont have weights, fill up a couple of cordial bottles full of water. or use yourself.

Do you think I should measure myself before I start? So I can see how much I've lost....

EIGHTY DAYS.....I can do this! I will look good in pants by tour time....oh yes I will!

absolutely go by measurement ... if you weigh, pick one day of the week, and weigh in the morning after you pee thats all - one day. and remember - your a girl. your weight is going to change depending on the time of the month, all sorts of factors.

eighty days. about 7 -8 kgs - thats very doable

we should really get donjon to set us out a weekly program, and report every monday or something. keep everyone on track and motivated.

I threw away my scales two months ago -- they fluctuated by kilos at a time and started to freak me out....so now I'm going by clothing sizes and feel. I might go to a chemist and weigh myself tomorrow so I at least know for sure what I was at the beginning of my EIGHTY DAY PLAN. I'll measure as soon as I go home tonight.

I'm scared...DonJon is a meany! :?

DonJon

Yeah dont worry to much about weight.

My flatmate was 'obsessed' with losing 5-6 kgs. She started training 3 days a week and after about 5-6 weeks I noticed a BIG difference. She had converted fat to muscle but still weighed the same so wasnt happy :roll:

If you are serious about doing it Ill email a few things to do....but dont waste me time :twisted:

Zenith has started you with the right ideas. Just start getting out there. Walk/run, lots of lunges and squats to start with. Just make sure you do things properly to start with aka...lunges...dont travel over the front knee. Knne should not go forward from the shin (should be 90%) and drop with the back leg etc

I can see me getting the video camera out here cant I :roll: :?

Okay, I've started off well. Got really stoned and drunk last night, went to bed at 2am and slept through my 6am alarm....... So I'm starting this afternoon!

I am all measured up though. I did that before I started drinking.

Email me please DonJon.....I won't waste your time.....promise!

DonJon, as if I would give you the shits? :?

Okay, I just did 10 lunges with each leg in my office just then.....and I'm sore! I have such a long way to go.... :? How many of those should I work up to per day do you think?

It's hard to tell whether I am doing it right and keeping my front knee at right angle etc......I need to do it in front of a mirror.

ZiggyStar

I also need some major arse work........what should I do?

Random_Wookie

great way to start zig.

this morning

45 min walk to gym
warm up 5 min bike (2.4km), 5 min treadmill
session with personal trainer
4*12 dead lifts (60kg,70kg,80kg,80kg)
3 sets of sqauts with single dumbell raise (10 each arm, 15,kg,17.5kg,20kg)

10 lunges on each leg good work zig, you should feel if you move forward too much in the lunge!

I'm still swimming and doing the weights every day. I don't think any pounds are being lost but everything is getting more compact. :geek:

You're trying to kill me, aren't you? :? I just did ten squats in my office.....and all I can feel is how sore the top of my thighs are from those lunges.

So will squats work my butt?

FIFTY? You're a machine! :shock:

Yes squats and lunges are perfect for upper legs and glutes

You should be doing this for fitness and lifestyle dear not just for summer :x

Im only doing 50 walking lunges wookie....so 25 each

50 Box jump, 24 inch box
50 Chin Ups
50 Kettlebell swings, 28kg
Walking Lunge, 50 steps
50 Knees to elbows
50 Push press, 30kg
50 Back extensions
50 Wall ball shots, 10kg ball

Tough start...chins into swings is all shoulder so a bitta burn time there. Get breath back during lunges and KTE. Wall balls into burpees is where it gets ugly.
