The weather's been nasty out here. At least it is when I can ride. Lot's of Lightning within 5 nautical miles of base and rain.

So I have been swimming a lot. I joined a Master's Swim team out here, it's been nice.

But what Can I do to stay in riding shape? I run a 5k twice a week for squadron PT.

What do you all do when the weather is nasty? I was thinking about grabbing a cheapo bike and a trainer, any reviews?

You could try lifting your burden of guilt. Good for the pecs.

 

[Red Rabbit]

Right...

 

[gonefirefightin]

Bouldering, Kayaking, Hunting, moto...........

 

[SkaredShtles]

Nothing.

I'm blessed with an active metabolism and am able to get up off the couch and do a 35 mile mt bike ride with nary a thought.

i was gonna say cheating, it really works those hip flexors.

 

[stinkyboy]

You seem to suck a lot, so you should be fine.

 

[Quo Fan]

I do a lot of fire-side push-ups.

That and I beat the crap out of people.

 

[cracked]

p90x.

That really work?

crossfit, knee grow. If you want all over fitness, it's the real deal. If you're talking pure cycling fitness, spinning can be less boring than golf.

Did you delete your other thread or did the moods?

 

[Red Rabbit]

I did, Loco said I should stop. The only way I could was by deleting it. I don't think I will be posting anything new about my personal life until I am getting married.

You say cross fit, that's getting pretty popular out here with all the want to be MMA fighters.

Is it good ****?

 

[TheTruth]

find a padded room at an insane asylum and run around in it until they put you down.

Fine...blame me.

I thought same sex marriage failed in CA.

 

[loco-gringo]

Oh yeah...never find the situation that keeps me from riding.

 

[DirtMcGirk]

Angry masturbation thinking about my ex getting drilled by a bunch of guys in the sand seems to keep me in shape. Mind you I'm pretty chaffed up, but I'm not putting on any weight either. It could just be blood loss from my nightly jerking with my tears, but I don't think so.

 

[jdcamb]

I masturbate while running up stairs. Works excellent!

I should have tried that tonight!

Just make sure the neighbors aren't home from work first. Why do women always scream when they see my erect penis? Like they haven't been to the zoo before?? Fakers!

That was a self edit.


Weight training, skiing, running, cardio machines...all things I do in addition to riding.

I masturbate angrily thinking about your ex too.......

 

[jonKranked]

Personally, I find that promiscuity is a great workout.

 

[eaterofdog]

I only dirt jump once a week, but I ride trials on pallets and such in my yard every day or two. Trials riding is tough. I don't masturbate at the same time though. I might try it.

Not only is trials a great workout, it really helps improve your technical handling skillz.

crossfit is the real deal. I think it's similar in exercise theory to P90X, but I don't know too much about that program.

Crossfit is essentially high intensity interval training for your entire body. It teaches or utilizes as many muscles as possible in each exercise. Ie the kipping pullup looks like cheating (I thought it was at first) but you're adding muscles to the motion...plus you end up doing so many that you're still giving your dead-hang muscles a good workout.

Anyways, follow the daily routine and take rest days as needed. When I was religious about it I'd do 3 on 1 off 2 on 1 off but more often I'd just add it to my regular lifting routine. You can scale the workouts as needed; some are reps (Murph) some are weights (thrusters etc). My favorite are the "5 rounds for time of..." workouts, as they tend to destroy your entire body and by the fifth round, yer dead.

Edit: oh yeah, and mma wannabees like it because it works. Same with SEALs, cops, firemen, etc. Pretty much anybody who needs functional, total body fitness. Body builders avoid it because it doesn't build size as much as fitness.

 

[TreeSaw]

I do some core strengthening exercises, hiking, snowshoeing, snowmobiling, spinning on the trainer, some weights, drink lots of beer and generally chase around a 3 year old.

I looked into CrossFit too...I was BEAT after a short session so I may try it again!

 

[Sandwich]

Five rounds for time of:
30 Glute-ham sit-ups
25 Back extensions

I did this one some time ago. It looks so easy "30 situps, that's nothing". Then you actually do it and you can't move or sit up for a few days...impressive stuff.

Doing that as rx'd with a glute-ham bench is far from enjoyable.

I'll second (or third) crossfit. Incredibly effective, easy to do, requires minimal equipment.

 

[SkaredShtles]

This P90x must be the new Jazzercise?

 

[TheTruth]

I am surprised nobody has mentioned doing blow and running around like a madman.

 

[jimmydean]

p90x.

for real.

I can't seem to make it past week 2. I aint got that kinda time.

 

[JRogers]

I have a CycleOps fluid trainer and it works pretty well. I just use the road bike with less-nice wheels and an old tire. I basically stopped lifting weights and just hike, walk and ride to stay in shape. Of course riding outside is better, but being on the trainer and watching a movie or TV isn't so bad. And if you want to punish yourself, riding on the trainer can be harder than riding outside.

 

[greenhood]

I go to the gym and run on the treadmill. Some trail running too.

 

[cneums]

i'm seriously interested in this crossfit stuff, any more info from the mtb rider's perspective?

Don't be such a baby. Since my unfortunate discovery that you live in the same town I do, let me be the first to say you have no excuse. You can practicly set a watch by the summer rains in this town. Get out before 3 pm, or after 5 pm. And on the off chance you get rained on, its 70 plus degress, your hardly gonna get hypothermia. I've ridden at least twice a week to work plus one good mountian bike ride all summer and only been rained on once.

 

[Quo Fan]

BigT got the P90X videos, and wants to edit them to create her own routine. She likes the exercises, but wants to put a bunch of them together for a full body workout, and not have to constantly change DVDs.

 

[TN]

I finger-bang hoes.

no wait....that's you.
