For some reason my body wasn't up for the run today. Run turned into a jog, then a 2 mile walk. **shrug** didn't get much sleep last night and I had to get up two hours earlier than usual so I kinda blame that. Strength: 3x7 handstand pushups w/15 lb vest. I do these on cinderblocks now so I can get...

nooner

Yeah, sleeping's always been a challenge for me, I am a SERIOUS insomniac and have been for literally all my life, going back to infancy. Something that I've found actually really helps a lot is, somewhat counter-intuitively, taking a nap around 2 in the afternoon. Not a long nap, 40 minutes, max, a...

Oy! Haven't updated this recently enough at ALL. Um, let's see, where am I at, now? Consistently below 180 lbs for the first time in two years(that feels damn good), and I'm a much more in-shape 175 lbs than I ever was before. Cardio and strength continue to improve, as well as overall general body ...

nooner

Ha, not at all, in fact, I've trimmed down a bit. My girlfriend and I broke up a few weeks ago and I moved out of the apartment and have been essentially living like a nomad and working my ass off since. Very limited computer access due to couch surfing and floor crashing in various places so I can'...

Managed to squeeze in a workout today. Started with a 3.5 mile sprint/walk. Did tabata interval sprints until I felt like I was gonna keel over, then jogged and walked the rest of the way. I think I got seven intervals in(intervals, not sets, hahaha). It was snowing pretty hard and it was beautiful ...

nooner

Oh, and good on ya with the veggies thing =) Been my motto for years. I only like em raw, though

nooner

Haha, kind of a combination. Tired of working for the man, so I've been putting most of my time and energy into finishing my first webgame and making some money. Whatever I got left usually goes to my regular job and being a dad. Hopefully I should be out of the woods(mostly) as far as coding my gam...

What follows is actually yesterday's log, took today off to rest. I actually went skiing all day yesterday so that was my legwork, just did upper body and core work when I got home. Workout: 3x5 Pushups w/85 lb backpack 3x5 Chinups w/15 lb vest 3x5 HSPU w/15 lb vest 2x10 ab wheel rollouts from knees...

My little brother decided to start working out with me when it works out with our schedules, so he joined me today on everything I did. Today's workout: Both of us: 2.5 mile walk/run - Had a bit of an issue here, I injured my foot slightly somehow in judo, so we could only run intermittently as we w...

nooner

Yeah, that's been my issue for most of my life. Great sprinting, not so great on the long-distance cardio. Always been in good anaerobic shape, could wrestle or fight for a long time, but my aerobic endurance always sucked. I've been running and biking long distances for a while now, though, intersp...

nooner

Haha, wow, fell off the bus a bit on this, didn't I? Anyway, still training, just haven't been posting. Got the 1-arm spread-leg pushup down pretty good now, working towards getting legs together. Today's workout: Run(about two miles, last third was walking, though up steep hills so it felt good) Ka...

nooner

Whenever I op, I always start simply, with a basic period of acclimating myself. I'll go crouch in the darkest corner of my property(it's always nice to get the added security of still being on "home turf" as it were), and I cover my eyes with my hands, and just listen to everything around me. I inh...

nooner

Yeah, the routine gets monotonous sometimes. I try to mix it up a bit while still sticking to core tenets, like the weighted push/pull basics. I don't get too bored from my strength routine as much as I get bored doing the same cardio all the time. That's why I alternate between the tabata stuff, re...

nooner

Thanks Xanatos. On the strength front, it's really a matter of just regaining what I lost from a year and a half of laziness. But I can definitely say I'm in better cardiovascular shape than I've ever been. Anyway, training didn't happen on sunday, life blew up in my face. But last night was karate ...

nooner

Just ran through my hand and weapons katas today, along with some jumping jacks. I started doing hill sprints, but the mud from the snow melt combined with my vertigo made for a pretty risky workout environment, heh. Tomorrow's full-on cardio and strength.

nooner

Haha, this is actually yesterday's log, forgot to post it... og, first workout since judo. Haven't been feeling well since the weekend. Dizzy spells and vertigo. After a looksie online I've come to the conclusion that I most likely have labyrinthitis. Can be caused by heavy drinking, sudden changes ...

nooner

I'm back! Yesterday I woke up and did my katas, and then last night was karate and judo class, which totally gassed me. Should be making another post later with my full workout for today.

nooner

No workout yesterday, life got in the way. Made up for it today Tabata again, four four minute sets. Alternated jumping jacks, mountain climbers, burpees, and bicycle crunches. Rested two and a half minutes between sets. Was dying by the end, but I managed to crank em all out! Really proud of myself...

nooner

Fuck, man, this sucks. I've known a few girls with abusive fathers/stepfathers before and there honestly isn't too much that you can do besides be there for them and encourage them to get out/report it. I know that you wanna go beat the shit out of him, and it would probably feel good, but stealthth...

Hey all. I have 19 views on this thread so far and only three or four of those are me, so I know someone's watching. Get off your ass and start a log of your own so you can show me up! Sheesh. Anyway. Started off late tonight, like one in the morning(so technically it's not my wednesday workout, it'...

If you want to gain mass, life heavier stuff. Even if you have to buy some cheap play sand and fill a duffel bag with it(that's what I did). Diet's just as important, but you're only gonna get so big from weightless exercises. I eat five or six small meals a day. Usually start with oatmeal, a fruit,...

nooner

Very nice, I like the olive drab, looks like it would go well with woodland MARPAT

nooner

Geez. Damn shame.

nooner

Tabata intervals were the name of the game for today, following in the footsteps of "kick the snot out of pasychosheep" this past saturday, today we served up a hearty helping of "get your ass kicked in ways you didn't know how by exercises you thought were easy. As a point of reference, I'd never d...

nooner

This was actually yesterday's workout. Today was my rest and recovery day. I kinda pushed my limits with this one, wanted to see what I could do vs. what I could do a few months ago. I was pleased, also beat to shit. Cardio was interval sprints. I do these on a flat field. 40 seconds of light joggin...

Hey all, making an effort to get back into shape for nopping and the new year, so I'm gonna start posting a daily log. Keeps me honest and may give some inspiration for other people to post their own logs.

How/when did ninjalicious die? Don't think I heard about it(maybe I forget?)...

Welcome. Make sure to post

Welcome to the community, in addition to what psychlonic said I'm gonna encourage you to do some research and then just go out and do shit. It's not as hard as it seems and each experience will teach you more than a few hours of reading will(at least at first).

Hey guys, just wanted to put out an advertisement. I work with rope and string a lot as a hobby, I make slings and braided things and whatnot(current project is a hammock). If any of you know of any rope-type gear you like online but can't afford, or imagine some sort of rope-oriented tool that you ...

nooner

This is probably a no-no but I have it in my head that if someone is chasing me and I'm confident I can take them out, I'll hide around a corner with a heavy club, batter them, and tie them up where they'll be found later. You can always lay prone around a corner and see them just fine, whereas the...

Some good stuff, but the guy seems kinda like a mall ninja, or a tool. "I wear y sword on my back, that's because my hands are weapons, I use the sword for immediate action in ambushing or fighting." Dude's never used his sword on a living person before, at least in a lethal ambush. He straps it to ...

No, no. He's a tool.

Hey all, just wanted to see what everyone used for their head coverings. I usually go with the tried-and-true t-shirt ninja mask with a black t-shirt. I find this does restrict my breathing and hearing a decent amount though. Anyone go with anything else? i was thinking about a black balaclava with ...

Hill sprints will do wonders. Find a good sized, steep hill(doesn't have to be very long), and just sprint up it repeatedly. Run up, jog back down. The jog down is your rest, as soon as you hit the bottom you about-face and sprint back up again. Set up a target at the top that you have to reach ever...

Hey Moonpaw.

This is my cousin everybody, treat him good.

Like I said man, we're kinda dead right now, but there's still some people hanging around. Check out the experiences section for some recent adventures.

You should do a full write-up of your ops in the experience section. The chase one sounds like it could be good, I wanna hear the details.

nooner

Best lookout, ideally, is an overgrown hillside/ridge with underbrush but few trees. You keep low, and near the top but not actually at it. That way you get the height but not the horizon disruption. You can take the same approach with buildings - park yourself on the fire escape just below the roof...
