Spartiat Posted October 24, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 24, 2011 Thanks. I'm definitly going to do my best this challenge. And I wasn't hurt too badly so it's not that big of a deal. My current challenge My workout log Link to comment

Spartiat Posted October 25, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 25, 2011 I tried out rope jumping today. I had some good attempts but most of the time it ended before the third jump. Even so I think I'll learn the basics in the next few weeks. Q: How long should the rope be? Should it go up to the chest? Or the hips? My current challenge My workout log Link to comment
Kishi Posted October 25, 2011 Report Share Posted October 25, 2011 Chest would be better. Armpits are the best, actually. Rope jumping is awesome. Keep it up! Work like a farmer, train like an athlete, fight like a soldier. 2 Tim. 2:3-6 BATTLE! Link to comment
Spartiat Posted October 25, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 25, 2011 Thanks for the advice. I'll test that out tomorow. My current challenge My workout log Link to comment
Spartiat Posted October 26, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 26, 2011 Did some rope jumping again today and it works a lot better with a longer rope. My current challenge My workout log Link to comment
Spartiat Posted October 29, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 29, 2011 Week one resumeSo far I'm happy with my progress.I've started rope jumping and since it's quite fun I think it'll become my standard warm-up.My Bodyweight exercises for my arms are currently a planche push up progression and handstand push ups.Furthermore I'm doing pull ups laiders and pull ups with small weights.For my legs I'm doing pistols and hill sprints.What I'm not content with is that I haven't done any hill sprints yet but I plan to do that tomorrow as well as weighting myself.

Kishi Posted October 29, 2011 Report Share Posted October 29, 2011 Sounds like you've got some strength already! I'm impressed - very nice. Work like a farmer, train like an athlete, fight like a soldier. 2 Tim. 2:3-6 BATTLE! Link to comment
Spartiat Posted October 30, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 30, 2011 Thanks Kishi. I did the hill sprints today but I have to search for a new place to do these because the hill I used today had too many roots in it. My current challenge My workout log Link to comment
Damy Posted October 31, 2011 Report Share Posted October 31, 2011 You are doing planche push ups? That's badass, pal! You are living up to your name. Keep it up My art: http://damon1984.deviantart.com/gallery/ Link to comment
Spartiat Posted October 31, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 31, 2011 Thanks Damy, but I'm not ready for real planche push ups yet. I've only just started with this progression and I need to train a lot more before I can do the real ones. My current challenge My workout log Link to comment
Spartiat Posted November 1, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 1, 2011 I stopped tracking my food when I stopped exercising and today when I wanted to restart tracking I found out that my brother borrowed my little food scale. I guess I just have to keep eating as much as I can and hope it's enough. My current challenge My workout log Link to comment
Kishi Posted November 1, 2011 Report Share Posted November 1, 2011 I'm sure it will be. Eat when you're hungry, and eat 'til you aren't hungry anymore. Work like a farmer, train like an athlete, fight like a soldier. 2 Tim. 2:3-6 BATTLE! Link to comment
Damy Posted November 1, 2011 Report Share Posted November 1, 2011 If he's only eating, when he's hungry, it's already to late. Just eat.. a lot and constantly. (Yeah, that's a real pain in the ass) My art: http://damon1984.deviantart.com/gallery/ Link to comment
Spartiat Posted November 1, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 1, 2011 You're right Damy. Eating enough will take some willpower. My current challenge My workout log Link to comment
Spartiat Posted November 6, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 6, 2011 Week 2 resumeI had a really bad week.I feel completly unmotivated, probably because I'm not getting enough sunlight since I wake up late (12 o'clock) and it gets dark early (17 o'clock).As a result I only worked out twice this week and ate only more or less good/enough.School starts again tomorrow and I hope the routine helps me get back on track.Furthermore I'm going to post my workouts here instead of my workout log for greater accountability My current challenge My workout log Link to comment
Kishi Posted November 6, 2011 Report Share Posted November 6, 2011 Well, if you had a bad week, then shake it off and leave it. Don't carry it with you. Leave it behind and focus on this week. Work like a farmer, train like an athlete, fight like a soldier. 2 Tim. 2:3-6 BATTLE! Link to comment
