Thank you Sister Sam, appreciate that!!! I'm progressing but not like I would really like, I'm not a hardcore competitor, I just enjoy doing a show every now and then, but I'm stepping it up after this week, just doing cardio and resting this week!!!

Eagle presses?? I'll have to look that one up.

It is tuff at times, but we all have a crazy schedule, thats what makes us ALL winners!!! They are similar to the Nautilus extensions!!!

They are not as bad as they may sound, I completely SUCK at pullups, but they are an Excellent exercise so I get away with my not being so good at them by doing the 30 second negative!!! Thank you for the compliments my Friend!!!

Its crunch time Sister Katt, definatly time to turn up the Intensity!!!

SamEaston · 03-12-2008, 06:08 AM

Routine looks good - just goes to show that you don't actually need 5 days of weight training to build a physique, something im definately guilty of

How long are your sessions Arch, if you dont mind me asking?

Brutus_G · 03-12-2008, 04:10 PM

Your looking fantastic brother Archie! I like the split and GOD speed to you to.

Hey now don't sell yourself short Sister Sam!!! But I totally agree w/you on the amount of time!!! Of course I don't mind ya askin, you'll probably laugh though, but each session is maybe 15 minutes long, 20 if I'm slacking!!! I'm High Intensity all the way, w/a few twists thrown in, I guess you could call it Hybrid Intensity Training, LOL!!!

That's truly amazing Arch! I wouldn't dare laugh, you'd kick my butt

No, i find it really interesting how different peoples workout styles can be. I remember when i first started coming on these boards, people used to say 'you need to find what works best for YOU', and i thought, yeah right, surely it's the same for everyone - but that's just not true.

I think you and me are polar opposites in terms of training, a short sharp shock does it for you whereas i have to be crawling and bleeding before i feel as if i've done any work!

That cardio is kicking ass though - bet the Whirlpool and Sauna are a godsend afterwards

nadirmg · 03-17-2008, 10:55 AM

why all the recent cardio? your muscles are gonna shrivel up and go bye-bye.... are you on a cut or something?

Nah, I'm just a gentle giant, LOL!!! Thanks for the compliments, and I agree 100%, you have to find what works for you, I believe HIT will work for anyone, IF they do it correctly, or IF they want to do it, you and I are what makes the world go round my Friend!!! Yes the sauna and whirlpool where DEFINATLY a GODsend
