Keep worken' it!

Good run, man!

Hey everyone, i'm currently playing a tournament and the hotel has horrible internet. If i don't write, thats why. I'm still working out just as hard, i just have to be a little more secretive about it. My coach would be mad if he knew i was running and lifting on match days...

morning:
stationary bike 30 min
6x30 pushups
6x8 lat/under/close grip pull downs-140 lbs
12x50 assorted ab exercises

afternoon:
tennis match-2 hrs (lost, 6-4, 3-6, 2-6)

I guess maybe it wasn't as intense as normal workouts, but tennis matches tend to take more energy then just normal tennis practice. It's mentally exhausting as well..

Keep up the good work!

What are pull downs? =/

I don't know what you call em..Your sitting down, and you pull the bar down from above your head. Essentially it's like a pullup.

Anyhow, this is what i did today:

morning
tennis match 1.5 hrs (lost again)
4 mile run-30 mins
30 pushups
abs
30 wide grip pushups
abs
30 closed grip pushups
abs
20 pushups
abs
20 wide grip pushups
abs
20 closed grip pushups
abs

try handstand pushups. I want to see how many you can do with all those other pushups. I think increasing muscle mass affects motor skills. My golf game went to crap once I started lifting.

You've got to do actual pullups to get better at them.

Ah - lat pulldowns. Those are good, but won't ever compare to real pull ups. I'm guessing you're only doing those because you're on the road.

Hey all, sorry been mia for awhile. Just got back to my house from being on the road for 6 days. Nice to be back in my own house.. Anyhow, basically this week my workout revolved around 30 minutes of cardio and 200 pushups and lots of abs each day. Pretty basic but it was really all i could do with a hotel weight room. Tomorrow i'm planning a 30 minute swim with a 6 mile run shortly after. Of course a healthy dose of pushups and situps too. O, i was only doing lat pulldowns because i didn't have access to a pullup bar. Better then nothing me thinks..

Hey everyone, been feeling pretty good lately.

Yesterday i ran 7 miles in 55 minutes. I'm going to try and work my way up to a half marathon in the next month or 2. I'm getting pretty pumped.

Today a road a bike for 40 minutes. Pretty easy going but seeing as it's my day off i figured it's no biggy. Gonna swim tomorrow, not looking forward to it.

When I was into martial arts I could do a fair few push ups, I thought three to five sets of 30 was good! Anyhow, I also used to handstand push-ups, give it a crack man!

Just interested is all, keep up the good work mate, and hope you make it into the ARMy (they don't call it the ARM - y) for nothing lol.
