I've been doing the 5 day for a week or so now, and it's pretty heavy on volume, but i'm enjoying it, and hopefully will see good results. Please share your setups / cycles, etc.
Lol what gym
For me it's 10 laps (500m) freestyle warmup, 5x100 butterfly kicks, 5 laps hard flutter kicks, 5x100 freestyle sprints, Breaststroke cool down until I get bored
Four times a week.
One day I'll take a 5mi+ jog.
Yep. All cardio for Tim. I'm afraid of weights
Ye I don't gym either, I just cycle a bit and play the odd game of Tennis :3
I used to be into the gym for a few years, put on some good size and stopped.. Now I am more into cardio walking 12 miles a week minimum and I do a lot of hill climbs and keep fit that way. I enjoy walking and I hope to travel and climb some mountains in the next few years :afro:
