Body building
I'll start from myself. Started training more than a month ago at my friend's "gym". This is the first time i train regularly altough i am 22 (lazyness). So far i've lost 5 kg, but definetely i have more strenth, more muscles and less fat. Now i know it is worth doing and regret i didn't care about it for all my life. What about you guys?

Re: Body building
I have tried to visit gym regularly but I always failed. I have tried it 3 times with friends, but I have never exceeded 3 months of regular body building (2-3 times a week). The motivation just goes away after some time. Same thing with running kinda...

Re: Body building
havent lose motivation with some distance sports stuff over 3 years but gym is just impsy, even 5 pushups is too repetitive
Re: Body building
exactly
also working out at home is one thing, you can listen to music or whatever. at a gym you have only 3 options: 1. have your eyes closed, 2. stare at yourself, 3. stare at others, all of which are either super boring or disgusting

Re: Body building
STUPID....That's all, bodybuilding = STUPID. Now bury this stupid topic and let's move on to something useful.
"It's good to be having fun, but it'd be funnier to be good"
Re: Body building
I made a bet with my best female friend, that i will do 20-30 push ups every day for half a year. She has to do 30-50 knee-bends every day for the same period of time. If either one of us fails, me or she will buy ~1 litre of some luxurious booze to the other one (~20€ a bottle).
I know it is not perfect for body building to work on the same muscles every day (muscles need some rest to grow properly after training), but i will try to do different types of push ups every day, to accomplish the bet/workout perfectly.
It has been a week and I did not fail yet, but memory is a bitch - I hope I won't fail.
I suggest betting with somebody trustable, if your mind is not strong enough to regular workout. Failing in front of somebody else is much worse feeling than failing in front of youself.

Re: Body building
During start of my gym training some months ago I embarrassed myself pretty hard =D
I was with two friends and one of them is a real pusher. He pushed me to do shoulderpress (like benchpress but you sit almost upright and push above head) after we already did benchpress, the last set I couldn't lift the bar without weights even, it must of have looked funny =D I was really exhausted

Re: Body building
There was a time when I did 4 times 30 pushups every day (I think I lasted on that level for about a week), with an interval of 1.5 mins. Yesterdat I started again. with 1 times 5 push ups. ) Tonight I will do 10 push ups.
Stay tuned.
EDIT: I just did 10 pushups. Tomorrow 15. Stay tuned.

Re: Body building
Yeah, I failed that one. It was all in all a day not worth remembering except for a few good moments.
Today then, I will do 15 pushies.

Re: Body building
A little. But come on, let's be fair. Wouldn't you like to be disciplined? Or to see others achieve goals? That's what this is about. To inspire you lot to do push-ups aswell. Yeah, let's do it!
I did 15 + 5 right away. There you go.

Re: Body building
I'm at 65 pushups, but I've been working out for a few months now. I remember when 10 used to be tough
Re: Body building
All at once? That's pretty good then.

Re: Body building
it seems 2x20 push-ups were a bit too much for the first time, my arms feel like the muscles have been removed :D
how deep push-ups do you do guys, do you touch the floor with the chest?

Re: Body building
Been a while since last post, so... I did 20 push-ups every day from monday till now. It's not much, but I still did it. Next week maybe more, maybe just the same. Depends on my mood.
Re: Body building
i was doing 12x20 every second day the summer before. 2-5 mins between series, found perfectly ez to motivate as it appeared pleasant during comp-sitting (elma or match watching e.g)

Re: Body building
Still doing 20 a day, almost every day. You can hardly call that bodybuilding, but I don't seem to have time for any more strangely enough.
Re: Body building
It's going well for me too, I have gained ~3kg in 3-4 months but then I had some 1 month break inbetween where I lost some motivation, I'm up and going again now, was at gym this saturday and sunday!badyl wrote:I'll start from myself.

Everyday I eat extra carbohydrate + protein in powderform which I mix with water or milk as a shake.
It started as a bet for me to make 100kg bench press before christmas, but I didn't take the bet too seriously and instead I'm working out normally on most body parts. I don't excersive because of a bet, but it got me started!
Re: Body building
I think about joining to you and doing this push-ups stuff. I think I wouldn't able to do more than 5 now.

Back to serious: I have been lifting my own weight using a suspended metal bar for a whlie. I am to a greater extent focusing on keeping cardio in shape through swimming, though, than I am on the whole body-building thing, as I cannot seem to be able to hold lasting motivation except than for the cardio part.
Re: Body building
Yesterday I went swimming with my brother and I astounded both myself and him by swimming 100 tracks of 25m: 2,5 km
...which is kind of offtopic, but relates to the post above.

Re: Body building
I use to swim weekly/biweekly like 2km. Started it due to asthma and to enlarge my loungs, now i try to beat my prs.
Re: Body building
The level I'm at I'm just beginning not to swallow that much water as I used to.
However, cardio and lung capacities are not lacking, and in no time you guys will be venerating me.

Re: Body building
From the greek kardia, it means the heart, although here it was being used to refer to the cardiovascular system, meaning the movement of oxygen and of nutrients to and from various organs.
