Um, 3 miles ~ 4-5km. The world record for a mile is about 4 mins. I would be dead impressed if you were doing them in 6 :P I normally walk quickly and do a mile in about 12, maybe I could jog it in like 9. 6 would be a big upgrade :P Also, thanks for the google maps tip :D My run today was 3.3km, 2 ...

EC25K W1D2 done. I came back from work absolutely wiped out today. I aimed to go running as soon as I got in, but lay down in bed for 5 mins and woke up 2 hours later. By the time I'd then eaten dinner and gone out, it was 9:30. Made it OK still, even if it was in the almost-dark. I also measured my...

Less weight more reps applies to running too. Run easier and longer, and push yourself when you find that you're getting better. Depends. I would say more weight, less reps. If you're building muscle, more weight is good. If you're building stamina/rounding out muscle, more reps is better. Just did...

I hurt. For no apparent reason, I got back home today and thought "Hey, why don't I start EC25K today?" So I did. And I never realised that a minute could be such a long time >.< Got back home and just collapsed into a chair for 5 mins before I could even get the strength to get to the com...

Say no more, I've lived in neighbourhoods like that as well

I may have inadvertently made it more difficult on myself, though. I did the actual Day 1 routine about 5 minutes after doing my "initial test." ^^; Gratz! Although I'm impressed. When I do an endurance test, it completely knocks my arms out, and for about an hour afterwards my arms (if n...

I'd suggest the 100PU exercise because it'll take less energy to complete. o.0 In what universe? Maybe it's because I'm a scrawny little bastard, but the 100 PU challenge is far beyond my capacity. On the other hand, I could've done the 5k before I even started exercising. (Albeit slowly) Your arm ...

Welcome to new Emi-bros :D Yes, you should play the Emi route through. It's very different to the Hanako route, but also really good :D From my time doing pushups, I understood that a good way to work out how many repetitions of the same exercise to do, would be to do as many as you possibly could, ...

oh my glob...I can't even dream of making it to 30 w/o flopping down on the floor.Fact that you did 101 is impressive mate. You must be feeling pretty ripped. wahaha. How many weeks did it take you to get used to this again? Weeks when I was actually doing pushups was about 8? But a couple of times...

You mean today do like 10 sets of 10 each, then tomorrow do 6 sets of 15 each etc? Presumably would work, although not sure if it'd work as well. I admittedly know nothing about the people who designed 100PU challenge, but they have a website which leads me to guess they'd know what they're talking ...

Ouch. Just did a pushup exhaustion test again. Last time, I really pushed myself to beyond my limit to get 101. I finished, and lay on the floor for about 5 minutes because I was that beat, whereas now I was able to stand up right away and go type this (it's late :P I wanna go to bed :P), and it's b...

Huh, never realised that pounds and stones don't always go together. Over here, they're as linked as feet and inches, or metres and cms.

@Pseudogenesis, roughly how tall are you, and what age are you if you don't mind me asking? You sound like you have a very similar physique to me, I'm tall and thin, but reasonably strong, and have stayed under 8 stone for years and years, but since I took on a job which required a lot of walking a ...

Wahahaha!~ Nice work HH, I've been working 11 hour days 5-6 days a week lately, so my free time was dropping right down, and in addition I couldn't think of what Rin'd say ^_^ You managed to capture the wording for her pretty awesomely :D "Anyway" should be one word at the bottom, and a co...

Weekly Update I've hit another milestone. After losing 4 more pounds this last week, I've now lost a total of 50 lbs. since the beginning of the year. I feel great. Wow :D That's really great, congratulations! ^_^ And despite being plauged by bad eating habits (ie. not enough money) and excessive w...
