    guys .... how can you claim a 6 or 8km walk is not exercise ... when you walk with me you walk fast - my kids jog to keep up .... you have a hard time talking (although, i still do, but id prob spend my last breaths on saying something ) .... but you can not tell me that is not a form of exercise .... its not resistance, it doesn't elevate your heart rate to the state that a cardio circuit does, but it does work you ....

    perhaps you guys stroll???? :lol:

    :lol: Haha...walking :?

    Ive had a crap day so putting on the shoes and my fancy new backpack with heaps of straps and leg it home. Beer waiting at the pub
    I'll ride the wave where it takes me.

  • 50 minute run. Felt great legs are back. I was a bit tired the past 2 days after traveling 12 hours in the car within a 26 hour window.

    One more run before Sunday's triathlon.

    Water is going to be cool but that will only make me swim faster.
  • did the mother of all non workouts today :lol:

    walked to gym about 45 minutes
    evaluation session with my pt (basically tells me had bad i have done)
    45 minutes on the cross trainer at maxium resistance (only did 1.98km)

    now please tell me that i did not exercise :D

    Oh noooo....Im not getting involved in this walking debate again. And I didnt bring it up either :o

    As Manly will be gracing the tv tonight in the semi's I will be leaving work early to start sinking beers and scream like a girl. Due to this I will need to attend the gymnasium at an earlier time. So today Ive decided to do a spin class on the bikes. Only ever done it once so should be interesting.

    My goal...last the whole time without getting bored.

    My tactic to do this...park behind a good arse...and peddle :?
    I'll ride the wave where it takes me.

    or perve on the hot female instructor :lol: but that is only usually fun for a few minutes. to pass the time I usually keep asking the instructor for more climbing tracks, or if i am in rpm can we just keep doing track 5!

    and the screaming like a girl will that be at wolfman? or will it be coz wolfman is on the tv coz he's so sexy. More so since he lost his beard! :lol:

  • walking bishes!

    - anyone can do it
    - improves your lipid profile
    - increases lung potential (deep breathing..)
    - promotes muscle/bone growth in kiddies
    - encourages muscle flexibility - walkers are less likely to stack it
    - good night's sleep
    - psychological benefits

    easy for gym junkies to downplay walking.. haha!

    depends how much you want out of it..

    i've upped stomach crunches and am unable to laugh this week..

    :?
    wah

    Been a while since Ive done 40kg thrusters and I must say I wont be doing them again on a Monday. Complete arse rippers they are.

    Tough one for a monday
    I'll ride the wave where it takes me.
  • Great triathlon yesterday.

    2:54 was my finishing time.

    1 mile lake swim in 38 minutes

    22 mile bike in 1 hour 15 minutes

    6 mile run in 54 minutes

    Remaining time was transition.

    I hit all my goals, finished strong, stay calm in water, and finish under 3:30.

    Looking forward to my next one for I know I can do better in the swim, biking, and transitions.

    Running that's my about my max at that stage in the race.
  • theoceansmademe congrats on the triathlon.

    for me

    sunday: went to go for a run, did about 1km then walked another 9
    monday: other than walking to and from work I did SFA
    today: walk to gym and a 45 minute spin class, music bored me after about 10 seconds but I the class was still amazing, awesome instructor

    I have hurt my back....sneezed and felt this MASSIVE twinge in the middle of my back. Been a bit sore for a week now.

    And have I been stretching properly while exercising, you may ask? Of course fucking not! Not the last week I haven't.....and look what happens! Grrrrrr....
