What is your workout regime?

[Jack Mehoff]

Some of us here have served/will serve and still serving in the military so you should have a workout regime. Mind if you share?

Heres mine

*Monday: 10-15 miles run
*Tuesday: boxing practice in the local gym, a very good alternative workout; 1 hour of abs workout
*Wednesday: a boring 10-15 miles run
*Thursday: pumping iron for 2 hours
*Friday: another 10-15 miles run
*Saturday: 50 miles biking up the mountain. I love biking woot
*Sunday: stretching, drinking beer in a lake and fishing, ***( which is a good workout itself :D)

I do a cardio pyramid every other day with pushups, dips, pullups, situps, and 20lbs(I know, I'm a bitch) curls. Start w/ 2 of each, work my way up by 2s to about 20, then cycle it back down to 2. Takes about 45min.

I 'lucked' out again this summer and got chopped to the bike unit for the 2nd yr in a row so I rode anywhere from 30 to 50 miles on our four on, three off, ten hour shifts.

When I'm not doing that, I'll run 2-4 miles everyday. On the days I don't do the pyramid I'll either hit the pool(12-15 laps) or hop on a bike for a 25 mile ride.

I stay away from weights for the most part. I used to be big into them in college but the added weight was a killer when I got into endurance sports.

[JiJoMacLE45]

Sorry, I forget to mention this. I'm not superman, contrary to popular belief so I don't do 20 pullups, I do 1 pullup for every 2 curls, dips, and pushups, and I'll do 10 situps for every set.

So this is kinda what it looks like

pullups 1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1
dips 2-4-6-8-10-12-14-16-18-20-18-16-14-12-10-8-6-4-2
curls see above
pushups see above
situps 20-30-40-50-60-70-80-90-100-90-80-70-60-50-40-30-20

I've broken a sweat reading both of your posts. :D

[JiJoMacLE45]

Yeah well graphic design never was the most physical occupation. ;)

[GazB]

I usually manage 7 situps a week. :D

What a bunch of pansies.

Ok follow these simple fitness steps and you will be on your way to being the ultimate warrior:

1. Wake up @ midday
2. Go to the local beer distribution outlet and pick up a slab.
3. Drag the f*cker home and load up the net.
4. Go log on to www.militaryphotos.net and exercise those digits by responding to numerous posts with cynical glee.

Cheers.

My wife was an All-State in cross country during high school so that helps some what. A good way of motivation and less procrastination is your significant other or insignificant other is a fitness buff.

[mocking_loudly]

I think fitness stats are a big **** competition.

Hence my apathy.

I guess you are one of those fat and lazy, burger-muncher, couch-hugger people rofl, and I thought only Americans are fat and lazy. I guess you proved me wrong

[Herrmannek]

We have better things than burgers. :)

Christ Jack once more you think I'm taking a pot shot at you.

Get a sense of humor mate before your head caves in with delusions of "mortal enemies".

I'm a dead sexy bastard and I don't need a wanking contest to prove it.

Mate, it's hard to tell by words if this person is joking or not

[GLax]

mocking_loudly, srry if my workout stats look like a big **** competition. i wasnt trying to show off, but i have been lifting since i was 13...

[ibstolidude]

Damn, we have too many chairborne rangers in this forum :lol:

yes but I have the coveted {RECLINDO} Tab. (i hope not before your time).

my wife won several Ms Fitness Model competition things (before my time) in her home state...

even better is on eof my best friends whose wife ran the Olympic torch the last time it was here in the US, she was some big college/high school track star...and all joking aside my joke PT session would be a heavy week for him...he sits on the porch and watches his wife run sprints as he smokes..
The dude has never done PT since he left the 325 in Italy. Smoked during timed validation ruck marches - 10k 55lbs 1/3 body weight and 20k 35lbs. But genetically he is ****ing lucky..the dude is hard - woodpecker lips hard. Never was beat by physical challenges, but never did PT... jumpmaster 1 day notice after returning from a week long drinkfest during my wedding (he hadn't done PT in months, hadn't study nomenclatures or JMPI/pre-jump training handout) no probs. No-one ever gave him **** cause he never had any probs physically.

He looked the part of a stout, muscular dude...where as I do PT and am naturally SKINNY and must work at muscle....
I hate that fuc-ing guy.

Old enough

My wife is half swedish and half asian. She was born in California, USA so I guess she's American.

I'm a US veteran so I got to be at least 22, right?

I prefer asian and german because that's a great combination. But Swedish will do.

No thanks, i'm a selfish man ;)

rightfully so.

unfortunately, i'll have to wait until I am at least 29, 30... medical residency: spending 18-20 hours a day at the hospital for 4-7 years is not my idea of a good environment for marriage. :(
