Im in, but I cant play tennis or golf unless its can a hole. -
yeah, that golf sounds like a shit idea, and tennis - haven't played that since I beat Fonzie at the Cedarwood motor hotel when we were studying for School C...<br />
<br />
How about rugby golf, when you have to kick the ball at various targets instead - scored the same way....<br />
<br />
otherwise sounds pretty cool to me - 3k run though, fuck that's a long way!<br />
<br />
meanwhile, 5k row 19:15.0 Feeling a bit knackered this week, was ging to row 10k yesterday, but after 5.5 was almost dead, so stopped, so might have an easy week this one, maybe give a PB a nudge later in the week, when I am not feeling so buggered. Maybe even throw in a couple of mountain treks if it stops raining!! -

Chowie, I don't think I would get much below 95kg, not carrying too much fat at all now, and am probably fitter than when I was playing code! Mind you, with that stupid BMI index thing, no doubnt I am still super obese.... :tickedoff:<br />

I hear you, but I said the same thing to my doctor, and he said (and I quote) <br />
"Bullshit".<br />
Then he said " It's a simple fact that if you are 1.9m tall you should be 86kg, end of story."<br />
Then he said " Stop making excuses and get on with it!"<br />
He's quite a hard case my GP, but a good bloke, he gave me just the kick up the arse I needed. -
Yep bart and RB I here you re the golf and tennis, 3km run, and goal kicking but that evens it out for the wee fellas like steppa. Otherwise the big boys would just dominate, this way it's more an all rounder type event for us guys that used to just be all round!!!!<br />
We could add a pool comp on the Saturday night to rehydrate?<br />
Barty start a new tread and choose a date will ya?<br />
<br />
In so far RB, Bartman, and the weka....... -
Friday, the SnapperSlayer interval trainng thing, that still hurts, bug kept on the times set better this time.<br />
<br />
Covered 5524 in the 20 minutes. Heart hit a high of 167 on this new flash heart rate thing I got of trademe. Now just need to learn how to set it t keep track of a workout, will do highs and lows, average and all that shit. So won't need to get one off you now thanks Snapper. -

I was told by my trainer for maximum fat burn to keep my heart rate up over 163 for my entore workout (approx 60 minutes) But by fuck is it hard. Half the reason I collapsed I guess. Felt great after though -

fark!<br />
<br />
Wil keep that in mind. Was dropping down to 150s on the 'rest' phases.<br />
<br />
Will do a half hour row hard out and see what I can get the old ticker up to...  Hope I don't end up <br />

I'm 31 -
old, OLD, yeah, 1971 was a good year....<br />
<br />
ANyway, heart rate up to 169 at the end of 30 minute row after work today. 8328m Which was a new PB, by 3 metres!! Next target 8341 m, which will jump me to 7th on the concept 2 rankings of nerd rowers (30-39 bracket).<br />
<br />
This heart monitor rocks! I'm alive, alive I tell you!@ -
Wow, another new PB, this time for the 5000m. Knocked a grand POINT FIVE of a second off the old time!! 17:36.0.  Nothced the rower down to 6 on the resistance thing, and was flying along before I knew it, so though I would give record a nudge, and just did!! Will try revrn lower ratinings and see what happens.<br />
<br />
Heart topped out at 170 at the end, was cruising along in the mid 160s before the last 500m sprint saw it jump to the 170. -

Thats insane, its the opposite, you want to burn fat you need your heart rate down at only 65% - so around 135 for someone 31, its all a trade off between fitness & fat, higher you go the more you will build up your cardio & the less fat you burn. <br />
<br />
You wanna burn fat get on a rower & hold your rate at 130 beats a minute for half an hour, you wanna get fit do 2 minute bursts cranking your rate up to 160, then coast for 30 seconds, then just keep doing that till you pass out.
