    I think I'm gonna take a nice walk to the park and shoot some hoops tomorrow...with my shirt on of course. Can't show off my body yet, still no 6-pack or firm abs yet.

    5'8" and a half, I usually round it off to 5'9" with a weight in around 180-185 isn't bad at all. Just gotta tone up my abs some more.

    P.S. I also need to build up some upperbody strength and conditioning.

    2 miles running last night. I've read books on marathon running, and they all reference cross training. My goal is to cross train tonight either staionary bike or rowing machine.

    My two cents: It depends on your physical condition. If you are just starting any physical activity, I would start with time periods. Work out at about 65% of your max heart rate starting out. Do a 10 minute warm-up, complete the period of workout at 65% - 75%, then cool down for 10 minutes.

    Increase the time limits as your condition improves. Eventually you will do some work-outs at higher heart rates. There are tons of programs on-line. The spinerval tapes are good too.

    Finally, if you also ride a bike and plan on completing an organized ride or a race, triathlon or something you will probably want to start working out with miles so you know you are getting the required distance in.

    I got back to it today after a week of being sick. Just 25 minutes cardio, crunches and push-ups....and good stretch.

    Back to weights this week.

    Untwist the caps from 12 beers...my wrist is aching!

    A few pull tabs in there as well, but the lactic acid hasn't set in on my index finger yet.

    I may take an epsom salts bath later to keep me in the zone.

    Sat:

    4 sets (of 12) of weight-assisted dips
    4 sets on peck deck
    2 sets of biceps curls
    2 sets of "21s"
    4 sets shoulder press
    4 sets of bench press

    The weather was so nice that I then played pick-up basketball for about an hour.

    All in all, a good way to sweat out the alcohol from the night before.

    Long way to go, but I'm starting to get addicted to that good feeling you get after working out :)

    Yeah, spinervals are tough!

    Good job on the 30 minutes. Generally you will want to do at least one workout where you keep your heartrate at an "endurance" level - 65-75%. At some point you will vary your workouts and do some "tempo" training where you will maintain a higher heart rate for a period of time. Then you will also want to do some "interval" work with a very high heart rate for short period of time, followed by a recovery period, then more intervals. They are hard, but I really like interval workouts.

    I think I did last week doing that filthy fifties. Got it on video too...let you know when I convert it.

    Puddles of sweat, heaps of swearing, a few good spits into the bin and about 500 versions of "how many left...fuck"

    And whats your problem you lazy arse?
