Scorz' 2010
-
do you have a hill at your house? do hill repeats for an hour, followed by weights. For example, yesterday I did 70 minutes of hill repeats (20 reps, each one fast up, jog down, no break), followed by 5 minutes continual benchpress (stopping when tired, restarting asap), and 5 minutes of pullups mixed with knee lifts. <br />

For your snowboarding, mix in some agility jumping -

For your snowboarding, mix in some agility jumping[/QUOTE]Nope, no hill! Dunno if the knee would allow me much love running up and down hills too... Also I do weights then cardio, as per the idea that weights = building muscle so better to use the available energy for that, then cardio to deplete calories/burn fat. <br />
<br />
I do have some good steps that will come in handy for some plyometric (sp?) stuff closer to the season! -
so how goes it...?<br />
<br />
Or is it still 'run fatboy run'... <img src='http://www.daimenhutchison.com/invision/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=';)' /> -

Bart if I absolutely have to have a beer do you reckon the low carb Macs or Pure Blondes are better ( bearing in mind any beer has fuck all carbs in the first place ) -
Well, the Wounded Knee is a bit sore, but not as sore as my shoulders which probably got overdone yesterday due to the stupid knee. Bench press, seated tricep extensions, Military press, Upright row, Rear Delt rows with the new dumbells, rinse and repeat, followed by the usual ipod-Genius-mix-fuelled exer-cycle until my knee got too sore about 15mins in. <br />
<br />
Will see how it goes this time... -
Been trucking along with this and lost a bit of weight so far. It really is far more effective to combine avoiding empty carbs, crack into protein shakes, doing weights and cardio in that order for me. Gotta have that "day off" though.<br />
<br />
Very noticeable how much longer and faster I can pedal on "upper-body" days and how fast I burn out on "Leg" days! -
Still going here. Not happy with where I'm at, but happy I'm not where I was. <img src='http://www.daimenhutchison.com/invision/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=';)' /><br />

This stupidity happened the other day, I did my weights combo and then jumped on the bike. Because it counts backwards from whatever minutes you set it on I thought it was just a slow day, so made sure I maintained the speed all the way through my 30 minute user program. Made it, then while I was hobbling around trying to stretch whilst recovering I happened to glance at the screen and noticed the nice big "40" in the minute part. Explained the cramping pretty well. -
Still going here! Have lost about 2inches off the waist, legs are startying to shape up, biceps are all good, pissed off with my bung shoulder though it's holding me back from doing bench press and tricep press. Grrr. <br />
<br />
Have got my 2010 season pass for Ruapehu, it's a good motivator to start some "proper" training for boarding. Calves, quads and hamstrings, crunches and lots of cardio. Have some good stairs at my place for the calves instead of the piece of 6x2 timber on the ground. <br />
<br />
Think I will be going into Tabata for cardio as I'm up to an hour of exercycling and am over that time outlay after work!
