this is all noted, thanks

Kelju, what are your plans now that you are done? Are you going to move, or did you already?

**P-funk** · 02-03-2008, 06:40 PM

Damn you Kelju, now you have gotten another idea in my head as I have been sitting here looking at PhD of Education and Doctor of Education (Ed. D) programs.

fuck. I will never figure out what to do with my life...lol

Well, I have done nothign but work and workout since I graduated. I was really burned out from balancing a job, training, and school. I am now ready to start studying for my cert exams. It shouldn't take more than a few weeks, then I will start sending out resumes by the truckload.

I want to go to work for a company that offers lots of training with cutting edge technologies and has a competitive nature. If I don't get a good enough offer, I might be going to the middle east to do IT work a short while. The money is insane and the companies are struggling to keep workers there to work on all of these huge government contracts that BushCo handed out. The thought of working two years and having enough money to buy a house straight cash money brings a smile to my face.

Sick

Moving is a big stressful process, but fuck, it can be pretty damn awesome going somewhere you have never been before.

Teaching is great when people actually listen and can bounce things back off of you.

If you ever started your own training business, what would you want it to be like?

similiar to what i am doing now. Sports performance for elite and high school athletes. Offer physical therapy and clinical massage. I'd like to get a Registered Dietician who specializes in sports nutrition as well to work there. Pretty much just keep it a small business and do my thing. People try and get to big in this industry and they want to be famous like athletes performance. I am more interested in working 25-30hrs a week, making a decent living and enjoying life.

Question for Mr Fu, and Mr Funk:

Do you think that the tabata type workout e.g mountain climbers for the allocated period is as effective cardio as, say running 7 minute miles for 3 miles???

effective for what? they both train two different energy systems and in doing so illicit different adaptations.

So yes, they are both effective in what they do. It just depends on what training effect you are looking for.

In terms of fat burning/ calorie expenditure?

fufu · 02-04-2008, 07:09 PM

Pfunk said it.

Tabata is high intensity stuff, not so much a steady state kind of exercise. It is similar it HIIT in a way.

You may burn more calories total during a 3 mile run(or maybe not). But the post workout metabolic spike you get from Tabata blows steady state cardio out of the water.

fufu · 02-04-2008, 07:31 PM

Today's workout -

total body

warm up

chin ups - RI 60 seconds
5x6

last set I had to rest pause 2 seconds and 5 seconds on the last two reps respectively.

push ups - RI 60 seconds
5x14

Bulgarian squats - RI 60 seconds
5x6 each leg at x2 45 lbs

pull throughs - RI 60 seconds
5x10 at 130 lbs

decline Russian twists - RI 60 seconds
3x12 + 15 lbs

Tyler grip DB static holds - RI 90 seconds
3x30 seconds at x2 75 lbs PR

10 minute cooldown on treadmill at 3.5

Great workout. I felt pretty out of it and spacey beforehand but it seemed to help me get into a trance of sorts. Obviously the Bulgarian squats were the toughest part but I made it through without giving up any pace. Same with the rest of the workout. The workout actually doesn't get hard until the Bulgarian squats. Afterwards I feel so wasted. I didn't let myself sit down unless it was after completing a 5 set block. I feel like I make a good accomplishment when I can made a solid effort through a single conditioning workout. I still feel like my push ups are shitty, I just feel like dropping the reps down by 5 and being able to add a ton of weight to them. Oh well, that isn't what I am training for.

Also, I am glad my grip strength is improving during the cut.

Didn't have time to stretch afterwards. I'm pretty tired but I think I will get to it tonight.

Also, I read that Tabata is the single best fat burning method training wise. Take that with a grain of salt, I read it off of T-Nation. There is some sense to that, however. Metabolic training is a great way to aid the fat burning process. I would recommend it over tradition cardio for losing fat. Of course, to do it right it is gonna hurt, but I'd rather spend 15 minutes of hard metabolic work than 30-45 minutes on a treadmill.

KelJu · 02-04-2008, 07:37 PM

So you are on a cut too? Don't you already have a visible 6-pack?

fufu · 02-04-2008, 07:40 PM

Here is yesterday's food log if anyone is interesting in what I am eating for this cut -

Daily total cals - ~3200 cals

1 cup of Fage 0% yogurt - 80 cals
1 scoop of ON whey - 130 cals
1 medium/large apple - 80 cals

5 1/4 ounces of cooked chicken breast - 245 cals
2 pieces of sprouted barley bread - 140 cals
2 1/2 ounces of raw shiitake mushrooms - 40 cals
1 1/2 tblspoons of canola mayo - 150 cals
1 small salad of mixed greens
small amount of butter to cook - 30 cals

Total cals - 605 cals

5 1/4 ounces of cooked chicken breast - 245 cals
2 pieces of sprouted barley bread - 140 cals

More of a fading four pack. I get store more fat on my lower belly and love handle area. Other than that I am fairly lean. I want to improve my conditioning so I figured that would help aid with a cut and I want to be lighter in general for BJJ. I like being able to handle my BW better. I feel faster. I would be lying if I said I didn't want to be really ripped as well.

I hate you! At the end of your bulk you have a 4-pack. At the end of my cuts I still don't have a 4-pack.

Exactly what I was thinking. I knew how effective it can be with sprints, I just wondered about 'static' exercises like mountain climbers.

That was the answer I was looking for, thanks fu and funk.

Your workout actually reminded me of that 300 workout that they did for the movie.
