thanks mate, im sure youll be back i front in no time, as i plan to be a happy chappy here on out, my lifts are sue to suffer

lol I need some anger and I might get somewhere! Im so laid back its like im stoned 24/7

Powercleans 20.
....close but no cigar

Was itching to test my mettle so went down sugden centre yesterday dinnertime, (if anybody happened to see a big bald stalk legged idiot close to collapse, that was me!)
Results were as follows
19 chin ups
66 press ups (chest to floor and full extension at top)
a measly (or weasel!) 11 powercleans @ 57.5kg, but at least i had a go, must improve my technique on these, and Boar you make them look far too easy in that vid!
Will have a crack at the 2000m rower and possibly 3mile run today, depending how the row makes me feel!
Great idea this mate, good to log things down and hopefully pbs to come!
Must go, my little baby girl is swingin round my leg in a monkey type fashion.

LOL, weasely 11 ! good try mate , pretty good scores , are you a member of sugdenbarbell.co.uk ? get cracking on with that run but remove child first !! they can add up to 40 seconds per mile

Lol! running with child would be quite the extreme! Regarding the weasely 11, i weren't gonna post that up but thought fcuk it, at least i had a crack. I'm ashamed to say i was only interested in training upper body for years, i only began training the stalk legs late last year. Shameful i know.
I would say i'm more of a lurker than a poster on sugdenbarbell.co.uk good informative site though and its good reading for the banter.
Will try and dust the cobwebs off the racer some time soon, preferably a Sunday morning and get tear arsing down east lancs rd to bulk up the 10miler chart.

Managed to do 16 chinups now - please update! Harder than I thought!

ORIGINAL: Rusev

told my brother about the power clean challenge and well you can guess he had to try it. hes pushing 45yrs just finish his workout 180x10s back squats. he managed to do 27 on 60k harder that it looks

and by the way 2000m row in 6.35 not bad for an old git LOL

me on a rower no that was my bro too im out of the game at moment injury too my ankle

7.21 for 2000m concept2 row on level5. Have heard contradictary statements as to which level is fastest, so just took the conservative approach for level 5.
Caught my breath then straight onto treadmill for 3mile run at 19.35, don't know if treadmill runs count, i hope so after experiencing the sensation of white-hot lungs!
No more for this week

awesome run time after the rower mate!!!

Treadmill doesn't count, get your trainers back on

not bad for a chunky monkey james !!

bigsmash ..... im allowing the treadmill aslong as you hit us with a road 3 miler when you can.. nebs right, crack open some trainers and www.mapmyrun.com

10 mile cycle purgatory

42min

Yes, this is not a misprint. 42 pain filled, miserable minutes.
Go straight to the bottom of the leaderboard, do not pass go, do not collect £200


I'll save the excuses for the journal

giving it a go is what its all about !!!

everyone who reads this give a few of these a try , and dont forget the magic50 ,its a killer

Just adding some more Results;

Pressup - 58 in 1 min i basically died!

I went to the gym yesterday and i went onto a rowing machine, i dont know if it was a concept 2 rower thing as i thought they're all the same. But i got 7:07 on the 2000m

im allowing the treadmill aslong as you hit us with a road 3 miler when you can

Well the jury is still out on the road run, will bring in the verdict asap.
You've got another sponsor on the 3miler, sub 19.30 as stated please or i shall be requesting a full refund!

burpees will kill you and you can do them indoors !!!

There have been quite a few 'meet ups' on MT over the years. Maybe an MT 'sports day' would not be a bad idea
