Eat right, Run..bike..work out..swim..yoga..and die anyway. What’s your health and workout plan

[Orangeslice13]

This is a thread for lifting each other up. I like hearing about your work out and nutrition plan. It helps keep me motivated.


Don’t be negative in my thread. There are 1000 other threads for that. That’s the only rule

I have a 4 mile route I try to run 3 times a week. I walk the dog another 1.5 miles at least 5 days a week. So, roughly 19.5 miles a week.

I walk over 15K steps every day. My streak is currently 704 days. I'll do an occasional 5 or 10K if the wife is participating in something.

Didn’t realize how abandoned this thread was:

The Runner's thread

Started walking on Sept 1,2021. So far averaging 25 days/month, 10000 steps goal. I’m up to 80-90 minutes and 12000 steps per session plus all the normal walking around the house and yard. I’m entering my late 60’s and only regret is I didn’t start sooner. Keep at it. It takes some time and effort and results are sometimes slow, but so nice when another 3-5 lbs disappears.

I'm training for he Music City Half Marathon. I had never done more than 3.1 miles and am now up to 7. Right knee is in pain and swelling, left calf is strained and achilles is sore. I am going to try to get in a 9-10 miler tomorrow morning but haven't ran since Monday when I strained my calf. I'm running for my mental being. I've had a rough last 6 months and running helps me to get by.

I typically jog in the morning before I go to work. About an hour for each run. Roughly 28-32 miles per week.

If you see me running, you better run, cause something is after me.

 

[KoachKrab127]

I have always hated running. I go for a walk in the evening after dinner, usually to get my 10k steps in. I also walk uphill on the treadmill for an hour twice a week.

 

[Thunder Good-Oil]

I don’t have a FitBit or Apple Watch yet. I use an app called Vima Walk to track my mileage on my phone. I have to record my distance/minutes on my Notes app since the free version only keeps 5 trips. It lets you e-mail the map and data though.

I was surprised that there weren’t really good Apple or Google apps available.

You suck

I switched to jogging about 3 years ago and got absolutely hooked. It helps me maintain a decent but not great weight for someone my height & build.

I’m about 3 years in too. Love the way it makes me feel.
Much beyond 10 a week and it becomes counter productive

I absolutely hate running. I usually do 2 or 3 miles a day to stay in shape for the Army PT test though.

Increasing the run time to 22 minutes on the new test was the best gift I’ve ever gotten

 

[Orangeslice13]

For me. I’m old though

That’s coming up soon isn’t it.
I heard they’re getting rid of that nasty pull up crunch thing though

Leg tuck is what I believe they call it

Effective today actually. Active duty has until Oct. 1 before they start counting scores, National Guard/Reserve have until April 1, 2023.

And yup, which is really annoying because I’ve been incorporating pull ups into my work out everyday to prepare for it since it’s (apparently) the most failed event. Now I have to do planks, which might be more boring than running.

 

[SDV]

I only run from police

My cousin is an officer. I text him earlier to ask if he’d upped his training in preparation and he said “I did slightly better this week than last….”
That doesn’t instill confidence. Lol

Not even when it's raining,

I enjoy walking though. Greenbelt is a great path. Just too wet right now.

He’s an officer, they’ll just ask him what score he wants
