I will probably try the 3 mile run although i tend to get a bit bored sometimes if its on a machine. What about swimming? I am doing that a lot now - anyone else do it? possibly add lengths or something?

swimming is a good idea, maybe a timed half mile, it's only, what, 32 lengths?

you sound like a regular crossfitter now Boar! I don't think I could survive any of those challenges, which is why I am soon to add crossfit/gpp work to my routine.

Magic 50

10x DB snatches (5 per arm)
10x DB swings (5 per arm)
10x burpees
maximum of 60secs rest

Repeat 5x


aahhh, i think daz (mook) does these , what sort of weight ? 10/15kg and the snatch - does it resemble a clean i.e from the floor to shoulder height or a traditional snatch - from the floor to above the head in one movement ?




Weight should be based on the individuals strength I guess, to make it more fair.

I used @ 30kg for snatch and 20kg for swings, changes depending on what stage I am at in my training. I would probably start off with a single 20kg DB for both.

Snatch usually from a hang position - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=57pv_1j4dH0 at 00:15 secs

Or an alternative grip like this noob http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qaejpTMtgiw

Good sticky.
In fact its boarsome

I'm not sure about that mapmyrun calculator though
...it seems to be a bit harsh

Does it take into account up and down kerbs and swerving lumps of dogsh!t though?

Will definitely be posting a rowing time as soon as I get access to a Concept2 and will build up to the 3-miler when I've worked out a nice flat one. Is it possible to do a distance covered in Xmin on a stationary bike since everyone uses them, or will the difference in bike make a big impact on results? I guess you could always add a time for Xmile cycle in the real world via the mapmyrun anyway.

Quality idea Boar! Although I won't be particpating in the near future. I could give old times in but they'd only be accurate to the nearist min or bleep level!!!

Ok, these are all from when I was a good 10 years younger, and a lot fitter....

3 mile run - 19.50
20 metre shuttle - level 7 (ahem, i was rubbish at it!!)
100 burpies - we never did the press up side of it, so wouldn't count
2k on rower - 7.19 (I was the worst in my year by a good way)
Press ups in 1 minute - 60+

If I were to do it today, I'd guess...

3 mile run - 22+
20 metre shuttle - level 4
100 burpies - dunno
2k on rower - 8.50 followed by mucho
Press ups in 1 minute - 35+

Will do the burpies and press ups one evening and find out though.

Nice idea for a league table

Press ups - approx 60 but i find out tomorrow.

3 Miler - 15 mins 28 sec. Best ever time on the tarmac hill too. Never make that now though.

Boar, you defenition of a burpee is wrong. No press up is needed to sucessfully accomplish a burpee.

concept 5km - ~7min (from about two years ago) - gonna get back into this for a while on my cut I think
shuttle run test - 10.01 (from about a year and a bit ago)
distance running - I'm crap at it - 3 miles in about 27mins
biking - 20miles in an hour (six months ago)


ORIGINAL: boar

a concept 2 rower one is an ace idea pagan , ive not been on one for a while - how long is 2000 gonna take an average boar ?

a distance thats a good couple of minutes minumum of rowing pain !


stick it on setting #10 and don't pansy around with the easiest setting!

over 2km:
8 mins is a fair speed
7 mins is good
6 mins is heroic olympian standard
anything less would probably get you into a national squad without a second glance

RE: Whats your best ................... - 21 January 2008 17:20
the 32 lengths seems like a good one , we all can get to a pool and dodge a few old ladies doing widths ...

rich - shall i put you down as a 14 minute-er

kenders - i know that a burpee doesnt have a pressup normall , just a squat thrust i think, but i got the description from rosstraining and it seems more brutal

its probably best not to put old times etc in as we would end up with a list of how fit we used to be !!!

and the bleep test is easy - download the MP3 and use it on your MP3 player or burn it onto an audio CD with your computer and blast it from a stereo (link to mp3 download on first page)

i also added the magic 50 - it made me sweat like a hog - 9 mins 50 secs , pretty tough

these exersises are fairly swappable etc ,some are easier to do (pressups) than others (bleep test) but aslong as there is somthing to choose then i guess its worth keeping a decent selection

How about REAL CHIN UP ? PULL UPS.

Over hand (no fcuking straps)
and a full extension pause at the bottom
and either a chine or chest to the bar.

Oh and a film of it as you only need under a min unless your a bit of a freak.
