2014 FITNESS CHALLENGE

Re: 2014 FITNESS CHALLENGE

Out of curiosity are you a trainer? You seem to know your stuff. I'm working on my NASM cert at the moment.

Nope I am not, but I am going to begin working on getting certified.

24 now, and I started working out 3 years ago but at first I was only just throwing weights around from one point to another, and while I was gaining some strength and making some gains I was destroying my joints and my back doing exercises incorrectly. Until one day my knee gave out, and since then I've been doing a lot of research on human anatomy, the muscular system, and exercising with controlled movements from a platform of structural integrity.

Just wish I had someone to teach me these things 3 years ago. As I have to completely re-learn all my movements and build myself from the ground up again.

NASM is the best, that's the certification that I have.

Had all these grand plans of starting my workout routine this week and of course, I come down with a nasty head cold. Hopefully it goes away after a few days. While it is disappointing, I'm glad I didn't have to deal with the cold when I was traveling last week.

I know the feeling man. It seems like EVERY time I really get set into a solid workout routine, I get sick. Even if it's something minor like a head cold, it's enough to drain your energy and screw with your workouts.

Now, whenever I get sick, I don't bother with the more difficult workouts I typically do. I usually just do some core work or simple yoga. Enough to get some benefit from the day.

Re: 2014 FITNESS CHALLENGE

I missed the last two days working out including my burpees. At my doctor's appointment they found cancer on my nose. Thought it was a cut that didn't want to heal up. Surgery and skin graft is January 31st. Non life threatening but it still stressed me out.


Need to workout today to battle this stress. Not how I wanted to start 2014.

Looking to upgrade my old strapless HRM. Anyone ever use the Polar FT4 or FT7? Looking at going with something around $100 or under.

Wondering the same as the battery on the watch of my old HRM went dead last week.

Re: 2014 FITNESS CHALLENGE

I ordered both my wife and I the Polar FT7 from Amazon. I will have it on Wednesday so I can let you know then if you are willing to wait a few days.

Re: 2014 FITNESS CHALLENGE

Going to Best Buy tomorrow to hopefully have them price match Amazon. Going with the FT7 as well.

Re: 2014 FITNESS CHALLENGE

Anyone have a good link on what (and how to do) burpees? I keep hearing about that and wondering if it's a simple quick thing I could do to at least be doing something healthy lol
