Weight Loss Championship (Results Recording Only)

[Mickman]

I hate weights, bore me to tears.

Same for me usually. So I decided to start a program with more of a cross-training feel (4 days per week), and it's really easy to manage at home (bit tight on the budget and can't afford gym fees at the moment ). It's been working really well for me and I have only been going through each station twice up till now (instead of 4 times), going to bump it to 3 next week though.

Have a look here:

Doesn't look much, but if you push yourself it works you pretty hard. I just do warm-up cycle for 10mins. Resistence level set just where you feel pressure. Intensity level where you would struggle to maintain conversation from 2mins onwards.

Then do circuit above (using 8kg dumbells for me). Then cool down cycle for 5-10mins.

So I do this 4 days a week. Referee Friday nights and Saturday. Rest Sunday.

What is everyone else trying?

[Robert Burns]

That looks quite good.

I'll have a go let you know how it goes.

I have to admit my upper body strength is rubbish compared to my lower which I believe is very good. (I can leg press the entire weight stack in reps of 12).
