Dude, I just got over bein' sick with some crazy mild form of bronchitis or some shit, I don't even know... I was hacking up shit for 3 days. I went to the track today feelin' pretty good, did the push ups and sit ups, all the normal stuff, felt good, then went to run, HOLY SHIT! I couldn't finish 1 lap! I was drained of energy at the end of the first lap. Like fuckin' completely drained, it was a really weird feeling... I'm thinking I'll try it again tomorrow and see what's up, but damn, that sucked..

Good job though man, you're stayin' pretty consistent, that's the key.

What's the fattest you've ever been? Have you ever experienced being average or overweight? Why do you work out?

[srh88]

blazinkill... we used to call em suicides, start 150 work your way to 240 only adding 10lbs more per rep.. then back down to 150 by 10lbs's each time..
or just do yerself some pushup's.. with a deck of cards lol, ace's= 15 pushups each.. all face cards= 10 pushups each and the numbered cards are what they are, so draw 2 cards.. could be like 5 pushups or 30.. way i started was draw 2 at a time... if the numbers too low just draw another and add it up.. a deck a day keeps the doctors away... i do this daily just get creative with your pushups, ive been doing it with my feet on a chair and my hands on the floor in a diamond lately, seems to really work the core

damn that does suck dude. hope all is well soon id say maybe more vitamin c might help. im not too much into sickness aid lol.

ive never been fat in my life my problem is bein very very skinny. before i started trainin again i was at like 130 at the lowest prolly woulda been lower if i didnt force myself to eat then. ive been very average an i couldnt stand it. the feelin of not havin the power to do damage to someone if need be without a weapon. thats why i workout cause if i have an issue with someone i want to be able to put them to sleep very quickly. thats my main goal for the weights i push around! an just to do some sort of physical activity as thats how we're genetically made to do to stay healthy. so i workout for me to be healthy an to make someone un healthy if i have to. lol the figure is just a good bonus.

how about you?

srh88 what movement do you say for the suicide? squats? i stick to doin my crossfit workouts on weekends which have me doin a whole shit load of pushups. i might try the card thing one day when i feel like blowin my chest out an i cant get to my friends house to train.

pushups get a lil too borin to me i like the bar an weight i just wish i had bands to put on the bars to work on my explosiveness.

the suicides are benching.. by the time you are about 3/4's of the way through it youll feel like youre gonna die haha.. i thought push ups were boring too.. then i learned doing pushups with a deck of cards was fun... its like gambling haha, youll do a set of like 40 pushups then pull a couple aces and be like fuuuuuck

I workout because I'm scared to death of getting some insane disease!

The most important part of your health is what you put into your body, second part is being active, fighting off all that insane shit! Fuck cancer, diabetes, heart disease! Gotta keep your shit healthy at all costs! Which, I hate to admit, makes me weary of smoking so much weed.. I know it's straight up killing my lungs, I just like it so much, and believe it enhances certain other parts of myself at the same time, so it's kind of a give/take relationship... I guess we'll know for sure in 20-30 years...
