Hangover II - Funny but not as good as the first one. Seemed like they tried too hard to deliver punchlines etc. 6.5/10

[quote name='taniwharugby']Watched 'Just go with it' with Adam Sandler and Jennifer Aniston.<br />
<br />
As a Sandler fan I was happier to watch this than the usual Rom/com, all in all, had quite a few laughs in this movie, have been forced to sit through alot worse ones in the name of love <img src='http://www.daimenhutchison.com/invision/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=';)' />[/QUOTE]<br />
<br />
Agree. One of Sandler's more watchable flicks and one the missus liked. Some funny bits but overall 6.5/10. -
Yep. I've been doing them all as part of Crossfit over the last couple of years. Overhead squats was the hardest to nail technically. I started with a broom stick for a while, then just the bar and finally loading weights. It helped strengthen my back too, I used to have occasional back pain from a weak core.<br />
<br />
The thing I find with overhead squats is pushing my shoulders back far enough to balance when I'm in the squat phase. -
I've been Crossfitting for 2 years now and I swear by it. I used to do it 5 days on, 2 days off but now I mix it up with road running but still manage to fit in 3 Crossfit sessions per week.<br />
<br />
One thing to watch out for when you start out is to make sure your focus on your technique rather than go hell for leather. A friend had some back issues when they first started from doing clean/jerk lifts and kettlebells. When they got fatigued their technique went out the window and caused back issues. <br />
<br />
Other than that, it's addictive.<br />
<br />
BTW Owen and Ben Franks run a Crossfit gym. I saw some videos of their gym and their Dad I think was running a session. -
I'm a disciple of Crossfit so don't normally do static excercises like bicep curls, concentration, preacher curls etc. BUT..I am also a vain bastard and can't live without having decent guns. So here is my workout for my guns.<br />
<br />
5 X Rounds for time<br />
<br />- 3 min rowing<br />
- 20 Pullups (kipping)<br />
- 20 Kettlebell swings (20kg)<br />
<br />
After that workout, I sit down and do a slow 3 sets of concentration curls (20kg-25kg). Normally my arms are dead by then.
-
Saw 2012 on the weekend in Gold Class here in BrisVegas. Impressive effects and gives some sobering thoughts to a E.L.E. (extinction level event). Story was way too unbelievable and melodramatic. Unbelievable in the sense that the main protagonist should've died like 10 times but didn't. Too mamby pamby predictable @ the end too. Otherwise entertaining 7/10.

Generation Kill. A 7-part mini-series that chronicles the 1st Recon Marines during the invasion of Iraq in 2003. Supposedly one of the more realistic films/tv shows about the military. I thought it was hilarious, some of the characters were fantastic. Some of the scenes and topics ie, killing of civillians were shocking @ times.

War of War starring Cuba Gooding Jnr - [url="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1133995/"]http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1133995/[/url]<br />
<br />
2/10 - Horrible horrible movie. Whats happened to Cuba Gooding Jnr? His career took a nosedive after he won an Oscar for Jerry McGuire. I won't even go into explaining the plot because there wasn't one. Just don't bother renting this..don't even waste your bandwidth stealing it off the net. -
Weight heading in the right direction. Down to 109.2kg. Haven't been under 110kg in a while. Downside is all my suits are now too big. Oh well..prefer that than they be too small.
-
62 lastnight. I reckon 55 of them were "proper" the others were a bit of a struggle as my form died away. Unfortunately I've got long levers and push ups or bench has never been a strong point.
-
This one is simple..how many push ups can you do. Palms facing down, chest and nose must touch the ground.<br />
<br />
My chest is killing from today's bench press so I'll give it a go either tomorrow or Sun. -
Got smashed by Fran (Crossfit workout) today. My time is down to 8min 10sec and man did it hurt. Didn't help it was 34deg today in BrisVegas.<br />
My weight is no down to 110kg so thats 3.8kg in 3 weeks just down to eating moderately. Tomorrow is my day off moderate eating YAY!! 100kg..here I come. -
I tried this again today, I'm weighing 110kg now so 77kg. Managed to get 23 earlier and today managed to bang out 25. Nearly killed me though.
-
I can do 20 Kipping pullups (From the Crossfit workouts - [url="http://www.crossfit.com"]www.crossfit.com[/url]) and 8 deadhang pulls. I prefer the kipping pulls though, focuses solely on Power and gives you an aerobic workout @ the sametime.

Had a bitchin Crossfit workout lastnight - "Barbara" this one consisted of a 1.6km run, then 5 x rounds of - 20 pull ups/30 push ups/40 situps/50 squats. You have 4 mins to complete each round and a 3 min rest in between. I could only complete 3 x rounds in 4 mins. The rest I was down to squats/situps before time ran out. <br />
<br />
Just came back from todays workout. 7km run followed by 50 knees to chest on a hanging bar..I want my six pack!! -
I'm back on it!! <br />
<br />
Sick and tired of working out 6 days a week, sometimes twice daily and still not able to drop under the 110kg mark. So I finally got around to moderating my eating. Working out like a demon and eating shit (self-confessed junk food junkie) just doesn't get you results.<br />
<br />
So I'm on an eating plan using the WeighWatchers points system. My goal is to get under 100kg this year and have 2 more Muay Thai fights before I retire for good. I've never been fat as such, luckily due to being 1.92cm tall but I'm finding that carrying around 115kg is getting harder in my mid-30's. <br />
<br />
My excercise routine consists of Crossfit x 3 per week, Running x 2 per week and Muay Thai and Mixed Martial Arts x 2 per week. Jeez, just looking @ that makes me realise the shit I've been eating to negate that xzxidiot2 <br />
<br />
My WeightWatchers point plan sees me eating 30pts per day, focusing on quality foods and WeightWatchers deserts from the Supermarket. I have 1 day a week where I don't count points - Saturday and a weigh-in on Sunday night.<br />
<br />
So far so good, have dropped from 113.8kg to 112.5kg first week and 2nd week down to 111.7kg, amazing what sticking to a moderate food plan will get you. -
I've been training but just been too lazy to logon and update my log. Did a SPIN class with my partner on the weekend. It's been 8 years since I did one and man was my arse sore. Good cardio workout though.<br />
Be @ the gym tonight to do some weights, then Muay Thai class followed up by a Karate class. -
Went to the gym lastnight and did some padwork and bag rounds with the boys..nothing too strenous. Finished off with 5x3min rounds of light sparring.<br />
<br />
Feeling v.lethargic tonight though so I'm giving training a miss. Give my body a bit of a rest. I haven't been sleeping well..going to bed @ midnight and getting up 8am isn't good for me I'm starting to find out. -
Went for a run Sun night, bout 6km's..felt better running than I did for a long time. <br />
Lastnight went and did a weights session @ the gym. Weighed myself and I've lost 2kg's..yay!! <img src='http://www.daimenhutchison.com/invision/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='B)' /> Now down to 114.5kg..another 10 to lose. -
Doing well with my eating and workouts.<br />
<br />
Monday did a Muay Thai class. Didn't get in early enough to do weights beforehand though.<br />
Tues went for a 5km jog. Slowly getting back into my running.<br />
Wednesday - Tonight I'm off to do weights and then Muay Thai class. <br />
<br />
Eating is going well. No binges for a couple of weeks. Eating moderately and mixing alot of veges, fruit into my diet.
