MN5's 2010 get ripped plan

haha, you and your big mouth aye <img src='http://www.daimenhutchison.com/rugby/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=';)' /><br />
<br />
I been trying to do the burpees with my medicine ball and you have one arm up on the ball and you go down and the explode up to the side so the other arm goes on the ball and down and then up and jump....I struggle to get through them.... -
Did 20 reasonably easily on Lambton Quay ( after taking my suit jacket off of course ) yesterday and there were a few folk looking at me strangely ( for a good cause of course ! )<br />
<br />
but back to our earlier point given I presume your job is about as physically demanding as mine ( sometimes I have to change toner on the printer or climb a whole flight of stairs ) it's farkin important to do something as you well know. No kids want a fat you know what spluttering after them, they want a fast Dad they can't even catch ! -
haha, yep, the fact we are on level 3 of our building means that is my exercise first thing...in a few years is when the kids will start noticing your body shape and knowing if you are a lard arse or not.<br />
<br />
My old man has always had a physical job, and he is a tough old fracker (he and a couple of big maori twins who played league for Wigan back in the day used to go out and get in fights on Friday nights up here) even when me and my brother were 16 and 18, he was still stronger than us when we tried to wrestle him together, lean and strong as! I reckon he'd still be stronger than me now. -

Stronger than a 16 and 18 year old......yep hopefully thats me in 14 years time ! -
[quote name='taniwharugby' timestamp='1350077428' post='317296']...and seeing some dude who was about 50 there, in the shape I reckon I'd be in 12 years kinda scared me into doing something about it!..... I'd not have the dedication to do that for 30 mins, let alone over an hour!! [/quote]<br />
bro, just wanted to answer the two points above if I may.<br />
**there are people where I workout that I get some inspiration from-for example, you recall the picture of my workout area, there's a lean and strong 76 year old that does 7 sets of 30 reps of 55kg bench daily, and smokes a bit (!)...that showed me the value of consistent working out at high reps for a long period<br />
**Use me as an example-I regularly do 10-20 minutes of the same body weight exercises with small breaks-and I promise I am looking and feeling stronger than ever. I'm looking to expand it to 30 minutes with 1 minute breaks. It sounds boring (and is) but the thing is just to start (not piss around beforehand), and focus on stretching and the recovery between sets. Mix that with the stair repeats is good. -
Doubled my quota of burpees after a fish and chip meal and a few brews last night. Feel bloody good if a bit rooted and that pile of dirt in the garden is gonna be extra hard to move now, DOH !<br />
<br />
That's some impressive lifting for someone of that age Kea, 55kg may be fuck all to a serious lifter but shifting it that often is some effort for someone of any age ! -
For a bit of a change loaded up the barbell with some ridiculous weights and did a few Arnie style cheat curls. I'm stalling a bit on Taniwhas pull up programme so taking a bit of a break from that and doing some cheats for the guns. The serious ache in my guns and back indicates I must have done something right ( definitely a good muscle ache ).<br />
<br />
Oh and packed the boot with over 2 hundie kg of dirt and went to the tip. Unloading it was a painful exercise..... -

At the risk of being banned I'm nipping this conversation in the bud right now <img src='http://www.daimenhutchison.com/rugby/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/eusa_whistle.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':whistle:' /> -
A hard weekend of socialising had me waking up on monday feeling pretty bad and bloated so made sure the burpees, cheat curls and dips got a good thrashing today. Was literally seeing stars after the curls, fark those are brutal.<br />
<br />
Perhaps it's all in my mind but the jeans felt a bit tighter after so much overindulgence as well, hoping detoxing, eating right and sleeping well will alleviate this soon. -

Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa, Fern raped. I thought that only happened on Facebook ! -
Crikey, chucked the jeans on and they're feeling looser after a day and a half of strict ( but not anal NTA ) eating and four hard out burpees sessions through the day. Not back at work til thursday so gonna do the same til then as well as rip em out every morning before I head in.<br />
<br />
Will even try and persuade my boys to do them with me. -
Well had a Burpees day off on the Saturday but have tabata'd these bad boys every morning since then. Always aim for 11 on the first set and gradually they fade towards the end, in the last couple I barely get off the ground . Fuck these things are brutal and yet it's less than 4 minutes of working out ! The shower sure feels nice after I crawl up there to get ready for work. I've realised to get to 100 I'll need to do a four sets of 13 and four sets of 12 which ain't happening any time soon ! I'd be ripped to the fucken bone if I could though so it's definitely a goal, however tough.....
-
yeah the burpees I incorporate into my workouts (at the end) are particularly brutal that 10 is a real struggle!
