Joined a gym a couple weeks ago, going tomorrow at last. Time to shed a few hundredweights.

Just completed my first ever 5k. A charity event. A good laugh as I ran it with a few mates.

27.55 was my final time. Not bad for a 256lb guy. Buzzing with that time.

Well done.
whats the plan now?

I wish all these crossfit people would eff off. They just leap around doing ridiculous exercises and taking up all the space.

WEAPONS.

what were they doing?

Well im not really built for running. I prefer lifting and want to stick with that. However this event runs again in the spring and ive already decided that I will enter and try and beat that time

This is the best video I've ever seen. Some of them towards the end are insane.

I was wondering why that lad was filming me in the gym.





Fun fact- most of them moves can be used during sexual intercourse

Just did diamond pushups, very difficult. 3 sets of 10 reps to start me off. Tried clap push ups, incredibly difficult, so did explosive pushups instead without the clap, still very hard. 3 sets of 8. Not even attempting 90% of that video but there's some good ones in there!

I just tried to do the L-shaped thing he did (lifting his body off of the floor and holding it in an l-shape). Blooming heck

I'd love to be able to do the dragon walk he does, imagine being strong enough to do laps of that round the gym lol

You don't often see the bulky blokes like that being strong (pound for pound). Fair play to him though, those things are bloody tough.

Personally think that toned blokes with very little fat who are better at calisthenics look much better than blokes who bench press 80kg and have big phyton arms. Not aestheically pleasing at all, for me. This guy is straddling the line well.

Crucifix push up looks nasty - abs of steel required.

Used to do a martial arts class with a guy who could do that L-lift, plus bicycle his legs when he was in the position - looked amazing, no one else in the room could get close to doing it.

I do a lot of those exercises for my daily workout. Hindu and Spiderman press-ups are real killers. Just shows that you don't need to spend a shed load on Gym fees.

 

[thirdmantackle]

Hindu pushups are sick.
Look much easier than they are.
