***The Exercise Challenge***

True. It is great to see! =)

Update:
Some light play with my kettlebell. I'm having a rest day.

Stay strong and keep the updates coming!

I am doing staircase and suryanamskar

 

I've realized I REALLY need a rest day, I'm overworking myself. Just started working again, and the shop is taking its toll on me. I'm counting that as exercise, lol

 

Goblet squats, one arm shoulder pess, lunges, curls, tricep kickbacks, and side lateral raises.

 

Busy due to exam but still get chance to exercise today
20 min skipping rope exercises+
1 min headstand+ 10 min balayam

 

Swimming: 28 laps. 5600 ft. Or 1 mile plus 320 ft. 39:42

 

Heavy squats and some Romanian deadlifts again.

Squat working sets were 350x3, 400x3 and 450x3. Romanian deadlifts were 280 for 4 sets of 8. I hate doing this little volume but I need to focus on the long term goals and not injure myself.

 

Some get ups, cleans, military presses, swings and snatches with a new kettlebell size. Felt great!
All the best!
Stay strong!

Great swimming! Do you swim in the ocean, or in the pool?

Are those pounds, or kg? Whatever unit you are using, it is very impressive! Keeping healthy is key! Good thought.

Those are pounds but damn I wish it was kg.

 

You're already strong as f*ck! So just keep on going, focusing on long term goals and health. You will get stronger.
Cheers and respect!

20 minutes of mixed exercise of jogging, stretching, Push ups ... etc... 40 minutes of Yoga ...

 

@Baldur I swim in a pool.

 

2x 30 pushups
2x 30 situps
2x 50 second plank
2x 30 butterflies w/ 10lb weight
2x 30 curls w/ 10lb weight
I'm getting really tired of using my own body weight and these dinky little 10lbs, and my progress is slowing down. Considering getting a gym membership soon.

 

Good job. Stay consistent.

 

LISS cardio for today for about an hour.

 

Morning
20 min skipping jump exercises
Headstand up to 2 min
10 min balayam

Evening
10 min skipping rope exercise
30 min dance workout

 

Went hiking first thing this morning, the fresh snowfall made it rather scenic. One of the perks of working weekends is not seeing many people on my days off. All the trails were barren and I had the pleasure of listening to nothing but the snow and twigs crunching under my feet. I'm going to do some heavy ab work and shrugs later on.

 

That sounds wonderful! =) I congratulate you on your experience!

I see! How large is your pool? Here we can choose between 25m and 50m. While the latter seems huge I found it quite motivating to do longer
stretches of swimming.

Update:
Played around with my trusty kettlebells. One of my best investments so far. I got noticable stronger. Progressing is lovely.

Cheers and stay strong you wonderful people!

@Baldur The pool is 100 ft. I swim a 200 foot lap in 1:25 +/- 0:03 . The pool helped me get in shape. There is 25m pool in town too, but I rarely use it. Swimming seems to be a good full body workout for me.
