Regular  5477    LHOTP |  Subject: RE: 100d x 10m = 1 strong coreOriginally posted by Laffenguy Ok, knocked out my regular early in the day and that afternoon went to the gym to find the GDH machine. I said I was going to do 4x10 sets. I did 3x20 instead. After 10, didn't feel like to much so kept going. I asked the person next to me at work and SHE said she does 3x20, so the challenge was on. Yes, I did touch the top of my head on the ground! I did get a tad dizzy towards the end from the big movement you have to do for a rep. I did notice when I was walking back to work that my hip flexors did not feel tight at all. Actually felt pretty good. I am going to start doing these daily! YES! This is my biggest problem with this exercise. I have really low BP, and I have to transition from sitting to standing or having my head lower than my heart--s-l-o-w-l-y. Very impressive set. Please let us know if you don't get sore, and we'll come up with some things for you to try. I don't believe we have a starting pic yet mister. |

Should have had my cup o' tea before getting on the computer. Stupid editing only allowed for 30 minutes after posting.  Glad you've joined us Meg! I just assumed you'd come up with another clever play on my handle. I answer to almost anything, really
I'm sure we'll be testing that during the next three months. |

I might still do some planks in a little while, but for now I am hiccuping like mad. Way too many beers today. And...here's your picture.

I wanted to wait until I got home to take the picture, but switch and noelle seemed impatient. From the men's room????? Hopefully no one walked in on you during that!!   |

Switch, glad I wasn't the only one puzzled over the Runner's World link to the core workout. Yes, they made that much more complicated than it needed to be. Working on Monday core class for tonight and will post soon. Meanwhile, anyone have any good ideas of obliques aside from side planks, seated twists or ab crunch/bicycle type things? |

It is! It's one of my favorite activities. I don't even call it 'exercise' anymore. The sides of roads, behind buildings (especially tire centers), next to dumpsters, junkyards...all good places to find free or VERY cheap tires. This one was $5 from the junkyard. My other size ones were free. I've got a little collection. And I'm not even ashamed that it might look a little...trashy. (tire.png) Attachments ---------------- tire.png (185KB - 12 downloads) |

If your abs aren't sore tomorrow or Tues, I'll be seriously impressed! No kidding, not sore at all. I could feel it a bit when I did my workout, but not bad. I was surprised myself! Must be all that good Army training! I do like them though. Now when I leave work for the day, I walk by the gym and knock out a few sets! And here I thought you guys would hammer me for the girl comment............ |

Was thinking of adding some twists or a bit of weight in a week or so after figuring them all out. There is a bit of technique to them, the first ones were pretty slow to figure out the movements. I was wondering if because I have not ever done them, if that is why I got a bit dizzy. And...........you let me slide too when I said a girl said she did 3x20 and I had to do at least that! |
