Squeezed in a 5k run, interestingly according to the Nike + GPS app, at around 5 min per km, I burn around 100 calories per km. Would be interesting to know how many calories we would burn in the average PCP work-out.
Did my work-out at the local gym today. Went there because I figured they would have pull-up bars - what gym doesn't. Well apparently my one. Did the pull downs instead, which definitely worked the lats, but not sure if it hits the same muscle groups as pull ups.
Also did the 8min abs work-out at the gym, that video is so hyper-peppy it was definitely made in California - I would love to see a NY version of the same thing, "1,2,3 ahh fughedaboutit!" That said, it was a great work-out, and as Patrick mentioned - the enthusiasm, while over the top, does get you going.
In the NY version, the guy might track you down and beat you up if you slack off. Good post, had a laugh. Good luck in the marathon!
ReplyDeleteSad that I have a perfectly good pull up bar and can't do one darn pull up and you guys look like you could crack off a dozen (at a time) if only you had a bar!? Don't give up and good luck!
ReplyDeleteI still need to do that 8 minute ab...thanks for the reminder!
ReplyDeleteNice smoothie!
ReplyDeleteI do 8 minutes abs every morning, nice jump start to the day: Come on gang! Its safe, effective and only 8 minutes! Every day! See you in 24 hours!
