| I know a lot of us on this board work out on a regular basis. Some of you probably have intense workouts that MMA fighters have and some of you probably just work out for your health like I do. So I thought it would help to have a thread where we post our workouts. It might help motivate some of us to exercise.
My last workout was quarter mile intervals. I would run a quarter mile at 75% then I would rest for one minute. Then I would repeat this ten times. | |

| Try to add a tenth of a mile every two to three weeks to try to challenge yourself, and to keep your body working. | |

| Pretty basic... 4 day split routine with free weights (At an old mans pace)... And for cardio the weather has turned to crap so the bike has been brought indoors and put on a resistance stand. I alternate my cardio between the bike and elliptical 6 days a week for 45 minutes a day right now. As far as gym training for any form of combat sport, my body finally told me to call it quits. Between a broken neck (Cause still relatively unknown - But think stress from decades of wrestling finally took its toll), arthritically shot right elbow from a break 15 years ago, arthritic right shoulder from a torn rotators cuff about ten years ago, an arthritic right knee from ligament tears skiing as a teenager and a chronic lower back which I can only assume is from a combo of working out and working hard. If I could transfer my healthy left side to my right and clear that neck thing up, I'd still be rolling hard whenever possible rather than just screwing around with my kids... | |

| I do about 15-20 minutes of light lifting/situps/pushups most mornings. I mtn bike 1-3 times a week, 1 hr plus. That's a killer workout. Ride my bike to work, 4 miles, 4 times a week.
I try to do physical activities more then I try to "workout".
