Chooka THE Member Donating Members 1,210 Member For: 19y 7m 18d Gender: Male Location: Melbourne Posted 14/08/06 09:30 PM Share Posted 14/08/06 09:30 PM Good work Jack I go to the gym about three nights a week after work and then footy training the other two (have weekends off ) the hardest part is establishing a routine, once you have it just becomes second nature to go! I'm lucky as it is in the same office block as I work so I have to walk past it to get to the car! Like someone said it's great too meet hot chick's too so that's a bonus!!What gym are you going to mate as I'm at one in the eastern suburbs??Chooka Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have been on health kick for about 9 months now and have really got into running, to the point where I am running between 20 and 35 kms a week. I only have another 5 kg's to loose to hit my goal weight and once I do that I want to try and ease of on the running and start doing some work in the gym. How much did it cost you to join and what do you get for the cash? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ran the city to surf on Sunday in my best time of 56.06 which I am really happy with. Fitness and health is the best thing you can ever have. If you havent got your health, you have nothing. Get a membership and even a personal trainer. But remember, there is more that just the gym. Join a sports team for fun too, it helps if you're part of a team for motivation. Good luck and dont forget if you want to lose a bit of weight you will need to eat healthy as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You've inspired me to look at the Home Gym and walking machine I have sitting at home. Ok, there, Ive looked at it, that's my excercise done.

Better than any mexican team, that's for sure. Hmmm, are there any mexican teams that will make the top 4? ps.... good to hear you're on your feet... Another tip for you: It helps going to a gym with lots of eye candy.Gives you an added reason to shape up..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was thinking of doing something like that as I used to play basketball when I was younger and loved it, but due to work commitments it makes it very hard for me to be available during the week, as I work 7.30am-7.30pm everyday.

Out walking the streets at 4.45am then a bit of stretching and a few weights for about 20 mins.My serious weight training takes place with what I'm carrying around when I walk....

Id rather play as many sports as I can. It does breed a different type of fitness though. After a big accident, sport is not really an option.
