Champion  10550    Austin, Texas |  Subject: RE: TAN #185: Queens of Double EnTANdretech_geezer - 2012-10-16 4:06 PM blueyedbikergirl - 2012-10-16 5:03 PM lisac957 - 2012-10-16 4:00 PM blueyedbikergirl - 2012-10-16 3:49 PM I could do that... As I've no gym to go to, I have to come up with creative ways to get things done in the condo. I don't think I'll knock over TOO much stuff by doing handstand push ups. In P90X they recommend a good substitute for pull ups is using those stretchy rubber cords (with handles) in a seated motion - uses similar muscles? Aaaah - that's a good idea too, and I could probably pick some of those up on the cheap. My personal home gym consists of two sets of 40 lb adjustable dumbbells from Walmart, elastic bands, and a doorway pull-up bar. It is sufficient for my needs. Pants are optional. I should check in Target next time I'm there for what they might have - thanks for the suggestion... it's possible that I could just make this work! |

Anything that works the lats could work. Hell .. even bench dips (with a chair) are better than nothing. Working on ideas for the lower body challenge. This is hard for me to work into my crossfit crap though .. but it's a challenge .. so thus I will challenge myself!!!
Resistance bands could easily fill the void. You could even attach them to a wall and bend over and use a lat-pull type motion. From there, you could also go right into a swim stroke exercise. Dips are more for the triceps.
Lower body - lunges are awesome. one-legged squats, too. Step-ups (hold weights on your shoulders to increase the difficulty) rock as well... all three will help your cycling, too. |

Stuff to think about for keeping up my fitness in the off-season. Now if this race would just effing GET here so that I can do it and be done... THEN I can really think about the off-season! |

Lower body - lunges are awesome. one-legged squats, too. Step-ups (hold weights on your shoulders to increase the difficulty) rock as well... all three will help your cycling, too. I put the elastic bands over the pull up bar for various pulldown motions. Sometimes I sit in a chair to get the distance to the bar right. I started using this system in a rented apartment where I did not want to put holes in the wall. The pull-up bar is a clever thing that just hooks on the door frame without holes or making any marks. I could probably find the bar online if you are actually interested in getting one. Edited by tech_geezer 2012-10-16 4:26 PM |
