Mate these guys struggle with digital cameras and facebook I have told most of them many times about TSF and they just laugh at me. -
Hit the wall the last couple days. My training partner is a lot fitter than I thought he was and is a nut case. Calling every bloody day, twice a day - "mate lets go for a run" or "aqua jogging?" and "rock climbing?" I can't tell him about the Fern as I wouldn't be able to complain about him!<br />
<br />
We are going to try those concept rowing machines for a month, on his say so. feels a lot like being back at college and I have BBall, Rugby and league training all over again. -

<br />
think you can hire to buy too - is about $25.00 a week.<br />
<br />
all details there though.<br />
<br />
get into big guy! -
You can roll out of bed and onto the rower in the morning, shower, head to work, come home, jump on for another half an hour, and wham, next thing you know you are rowing 12k a day without raising a sweet - effort wise to get to the gym that is!<br />
<br />
and you don't have to be organised. I would row in my undies, as I was going through too many shirts and shorts over summer, drenched with sweat three times a day (lunch row too, I was getting very fanatical)!<br />
<br />
But is a lot cheaper than buying one and finding you don't like it!!!!! -
yeah the initial rent then rent to buy approach worked a treat for my folks. Dad has already replaced the track as he wore it into the ground. We have a decent crosstrainer at home as well - got it in the lounge so you can watch tv or crank some music while working out.<br />
<br />
I still enjoy going to the gym but it's cool to have something decent to workout on at home too. Esp a rowing machine - you get cardio and tone up right quick following Bartmans '3 a day' programme!! Shit 3 times a day is pretty hardcore Bartman! No wonder your times in the rowing section were pretty loco. -
mate, was competing with a couple of guys online, you log your metres in each day on the concept2 site, and then at freespiritsrowing.com they have a leaders board of all the members who row. I was just cracking the top 20, there were three of us battling like mad bastards. If you didn't top 100,000 a week you were dropping down the board so fast you looked like you were swimming with cement flippers.<br />
<br />
I will certainly get back into that once the BB is over - probably just 2 a day though!!!<br />
<br />
I used to watch the first half of a game of rugby in the morning, an episode of MASH on my lunch row, and the second half in evening for the rows, so would be 40 ish, 24ish and 40ish mintues. -
finally had a go on my mate jordy's rowing machine (they seem to always be taken at the gym!). 'Addictive' is exactly the first word I would associate with it Bart. Exercise heroin! I have used row machines before. Im not a complete noob. In fact I used to [I]have[/I] to do rowing as part of my training regime for rugby. But they must have been dinosaur contraptions.<br />
<br />
Jordy is a rowing coach and lives on the thing, so no chance of borrowing his. So Im going to sweet talk the mrs into letting me rent. It may only be $25 a week but she has been hassling me about a new car for months..... -
Work hasn't really panned out as the physical work out I was hoping for. Because it hasn't really stopped raining since I started I have been playing Street fighter 4 with my cousin and doing weights most days. No much in the way of cardio. Sad to say i have been hitting the carbs something chronic. The down time is killing me. Sitting in the truck occasionally clearing some scrub but no real project work is bad for the waistline and the wallet. <br />
<br />
Because Im doing a horticulture course I am giving all my available attention to that so Im learning fast that my organisation skills are shit house. Juggling, work full time study, family and a workout schedule is simple for some but not me.<br />
<br />
Back to 102kg dammit! -
This last month has seen me pretty busy with work and the lbs have been falling off. 97kg!!!<br />
<br />
I have had a long standing fight with DR PEPPER and look to have finally seen it off. I loved that drink but the sugar content is phenomenal. So Im starting to feel pretty lean. Not mean yet but lean. -
cutting sugar out or finding sugar free alternatives was super effective for me. I chop softdrink like it's going outta style, god knows how much I'd weigh if I was drinking the sugar versions!!<br />
<br />
You must be doing something right Raz to have the weight dropping... def a good motivator to stay off the pepper!
