    Training when sick.

    We've had some bug rip through our office and everyone has come down with it and last night I started to get the first symptoms and I go on holidays at the end of next week. Even though I don't feel bad I thought bugger the workout. Rather the body use it's energy trying to get rid of this virus...

    2015 Challenge Thread

    My end goal is to just take a photo that looks decent but so far have dropped 4 kilos since the start of the year and just sticking to the beginner strength program outlined on AusBB here. Seems to suit a busy family man. I'm finding most of the fat seems to be reducing around my upper...

    tough mudder

    The whole thing is becoming more about mental challenges rather than physical. Last year I got to do the leigionaires loop where you get to go down fire in your hole, the big slide with fire at the end of it. To get there they put in 2 extra low mud crawls which was all good but then they put a...

    Tough Mudder 2014

    Ouch! Getting expensive. Am also looking at doing a Spartan next year, there is a sprint and the beast on at the same time in Brissy in May so see how I am closer to it. I'm planning a big year next year. Last couple of years I've done Tough Mudder and realistically used 3 months prep then went...

    Programming help.

    After doing my second Tough Mudder this year I have really enjoyed the fitness side if things. I was sitting at 106kg when I did Mudder and running was and still is my biggest weakness so I have continued the running and now watching the calories alot closer. There were many aspects of training...

    Wanna lose fat quick whilst maintaining muscles? Give this a go...

    How would you determine the weight to be used? How long is the rest between one set (15reps)

    Have you done the Tough Mudder or something like it

    Lol. Him and another bloke went out like a shotgun. The other bloke ended up walking and skipping majority of the obstacles but my mate said his hips had just frozen up. Said he'd never been in so much pain before. I think the pain, the rain and cold and being in the middle of know where played...

    Have you done the Tough Mudder or something like it

    All depends. I had a mate who does high level BMX and does alot of sprint work and he have up after 10k's. The constant mud meant you could never run normally as your feet kinda slid out to the side with every step. I'm 106kg, look nothing like Taurus but did hill sprints twice a week and worked...

    Have you done the Tough Mudder or something like it

    I think I'm starting to get addicted to these things. Whilst I'm certainly not the strongest, fastest or fittest, it certainly builds a nice base to stay in shape and healthy. Jack of all trades so to speak. Might give a smaller one a try within the next 6 months or so.

    Have you done the Tough Mudder or something like it

    Finished TM on Saturday and that was just a mental slog to get through it. Last year, nice sunshine and a pleasant day and this year just rain and more rain. The normal dry tracks to run on where just sludge pits the whole 20k's so you could never really get your footing right and they certainly...

    Have you done the Tough Mudder or something like it

    That would be cool if it did lol. Be warmer in the ocean. This one is made on a huge peice of vacant farmland. Very open and flat. I have some compression pants that I wore last year and was just checking out the Under Armour stuff. Now I'm getting confused, they have coldgear and heatgear. I...

    Have you done the Tough Mudder or something like it

    So doing TM this Saturday on the Sunny Coast but it's going to be anything but Sunny. Lots of rain predicted which is alright but looking at a temperature of around 12 degrees in the morning (feels like 8 apparently). Add to that we'll be constantly wet, with obvious ice and water thrown in...

    What's the strangest road-side item you've seen while out for a jog?

    It's when I didn't go for a run. I run along the Brissy river and go past where that French student was murdered. I park my car along the river, usually one of the first cars to get there, hop out and do my run, come back and collect my gear and head into work for a shower. I took the day off...

    Have you done the Tough Mudder or something like it

    When did you do it last? I've got mine next week on the Sunny Coast. Couple of new obstacles this year which I think I'm certain to fail. I succeeded on every obstacle last year but this year they have replaced Funky Monkey (monkey bars) with Hangin Tough (rings) where you have to swing from one...
