    The cross over took me forever but watching some youtube videos helped me a lot. I don't have it perfect but I can do it a couple times in a row now. Getting the first revolution is the hardest part.

    Word. I finally mastered the cross over. One thing I do to challenge myself now is run up hills while skipping rope. Really works that lower V crotch area/plus calves/cardio.

    I have lost weight but my back and lats are a little bit stronger. I've been running and jumping rope a lot lately and it's made my legs leaner. But I've probably lost some power. It's going to suck but I gotta get back on the horse. It's too beneficial of a work out to give up.

    Going to get back on deadlifts today after about a month away from them. I've been doing every other lift but after I pulled my back I decided I needed a break and then haven't gone back on it since. Luckily my core has improved since then and I'm interested to see what I can do today. I'm hoping the weight won't feel like 900 lbs haha.

    Started in incorporating my own ab/core routine the past 2 weeks and I'm already seeing results. I've really started to cut down on my body fat %. I purchased an ab wheel and use that sucker every day and then on days that I lift I do 3 sets of about 12 post workout on the ab wheel and in between those sets I do 30-40 seconds of HITT jumping rope. I commit every Thursday to running anywhere between 1-2 miles depending on how I feel but every session ends with me jumping rope up steep hills in the neighborhood. That works my lower core like nobodies business. Im starting to get the V My biceps are looking great and my lat pull downs have gone up to 225, which I think is pretty good for weighing 170 right now. Im also finally getting results with my chest. I've been using machines to slowly train my self to be able bench press comfortably and its working. I'm going to be a ripped mofo.

    Havent posted in a while but my biceps are really starting to come along and my jump roping has really started to build my calves and thighs. I went on a 3 mile run last week and I killed it no spoon. I didn't run it fast but I was well paced and I didn't have any cramps. Im a 1 mile runner and go home, that hasn't really happened to me before. So I'm going to start running more during the week. My deadlift has sort of gone down but not by a lot. I think it's mainly from skipping deads lately but I'm putting up 265 with good form instead of 310 all on my back which is a good thing. I bought an ab wheel today because I really want some fuggin abs. The jump rope has given a slit hint of ab, but I want the whole 6 pack.

    There are only a handful of players in the league that are Ginn fast and Ginn's one of them.

    I couldn't agree more with this. If you are lifting weights combined with cardio your weight is going to fluctuate. If you get obsessed with the numbers you might not eat as much as you should. Your muscles won't repair themselves as well, you'll have less energy to work out etc.

    Basically took the past 2 weeks off due to random illness. I think it was allergies or some sort of cold but damn it was annoying. I tried to do some small maintenance workouts. Basically just push ups and pull ups. The one time I really tried to workout I ended up throwing up. Glad to say I'm feeling good now and ready to bust ass.

    That really doesn't sound bad at all.

    Cool thing I've noticed about getting in better shape is that I don't have to use antiperspirant anymore. I can use straight deodorant and not worry about sweating my pits off every day. I guess I'm sweating more efficiently.

    Pulled my back doing upper body yesterday. I actually pulled it during my pre workout stretch. Wasn't going to puss out so I finished my workout anyway. I'm reluctant to go at it today though because it's leg day and leg press can have a tendency to stress your back. May just do some intense jump rope today.

    Starting to see nice gains on my biceps. They're cut too which is nice. My squat is still pathetic but I'm going from the ground up now to really focus and build strength. My leg press has improved and I think part of that has come through jumping rope, constantly supporting my body weight etc..I skipped deadlifts last week. Finally got back on it yesterday. The weight felt heavier than I wanted it to. I can now do the Ali shuffle while skipping rope which is kinda cool. Still working on the cross over.

    You runners here blow my mind. The max I could ever run would be 2-3 miles. I'd be totally wiped out and might die if I had to do 10 miles. Is it all in the pace?

    Skipped leg day yesterday, went to the Kights game. Had 4 beers and stuffed myself with free food. But it was awesome food. Fish, steak, hummus, cheesecake, lamb. Felt like a fat POS later that night. Tried to go hard today and make up for it but my body felt tired.

    Nice

    I know I sound like a broken record by now but have you considered jumping rope? It's a lot less stress on your knees depending on your weight and you will burn calories at a much faster rate if you jump for 10-15 mins. It might also help aid you to get in shape for running. I've noticed that it's easier to run myself and I have a better spring in my step now after about a month of jump rope 4-5 times a week, off on weekends.

    Just turn sex into a HIIT routine.

    Question for you guys. I've noticed I'm starting to sweat a hell of lot more than I used to when I would work out. More so now since I jump rope obviously but I was noticing it before that as well. Is that any indication of anything? Can't wait to hit the gym tomorrow. I'm going to start incorporate dips and possibly weighted push ups to build what I consider a weak chest. Something about bench just doesn't cut it for me.

    Holy sht. I'd say you deserve a few man.

    This is true. I've been trying to avoid concrete where possible. My gym's basketball courts are wood floor so I use it a lot. I've also started jumping rope in the weight room when there aren't a lot of people around and I have plenty of space. The mats in their are much more forgiving on my ankles.

    Did deadlifts today and concentrated on proper form and keeping my ass out. Could only go up to 275 today but honestly I think part of that is because my shins are so sore from jump roping. The pressure of lifting was re-aggravating my legs and I think it held me back. I'm obsessed with jumping rope now but I need to give it some days off before I get a stress fracture. I've been going at it almost every day. Yesterday I started running down my street while jumping rope. It was a good workout but my shins were in so much pain I had to lay down for about 40 mins and take an ibuprofen.

    Didn't go for gold on deadlifts today but my brother pointed out some flaws in my technique that I am happy to know of now instead of later before I hurt myself. To summarize two things I tend to do. 1. I keep my ass low to the ground but not necessarily "out". This makes my lower back curl and keeps it out of proper form. 2. I have the tendency to explode off a deadlift instead of simply rising. I jerk off the gound(lol). Anyway it was still a good workout and it was nice to hit the gym with my brother. I was still getting 295 with like 90% effort so I felt good about it. .

    Shooting for 310 on deadlifts today. My big brother is coming with me so I'm hoping a little competition will help.

    Just wanted to stop by the thread before hitting the gym. Happy lifting everyone. I'm starting to get a lot better at jumping rope now. It has become a mainstay in my routine. I can now run in place and switch feet. I'm trying to seriously Rocky III this sht. Now off to continue my quest to become Batman
