Here's an aerobics routine that I read aobut recently. How can this be
improved? What music would be good with this?

Stretch
No movement physically. Constant or increasing pressure
Meditation music prefered. 10 minutes typical

Warmup
Nonstructured exercise which must be completed within 4-6
minutes. Something to inspire...beat not required. Could
even be a speech.

Regular Set
10-20 repetitions in 2 count, 4 count or 8 count

Power Set
40-60 repetitions

SuperSet
Regular and/or Power sets with less than 20 seconds rest
between sets. Preferably nonstop.

Walking
Jogging
Running
Each of these is speed dependant. Stride
music. Jazz, rock, band or dance.

Cooldown
Nonstructured exercises 3 minutes

Final Stretch
Up to 20 minutes.

If I were more industrious, I would start a cycling ocnference.
I went looking for a road bike on Sat. biggest problem is my size. Very few
bikes with a low enough stand over and short enough top tube.
I think I'll end up with a freak show bike : 24 in front wheel!

Yeah I hear dirtbiking will keep you in shape, IF you're in shape! Never done it.
Anyone a practicing martial artist? I spent high school & 3 years of college developing my skills, a discipline that has stayed with me as a fitness enhncer to this day. Believe me I could always work-out more, but I much prefer it to aerobics.

LOL. We've all been there I bet. I won a membership to a club somehow 2 years ago, I think I filled out a slip in a pizzeria. When I went in to East coast Fitness (6', 155lbs, reasonable definition), I find that it's a haven for *serious* bodybuilders! I mean guys who are bouncers, competitors, hardbodies to the max. Intimidating as entering a strange bar where all the bikers stop talking. BUT it turned out to be a great place to work out with Nautilus and free weights and the guys and few women were grea
; no time spent on BS'ing just exercise. I'll miss it.

Memberships too outrageously expensive to sponsor yourself?

No, I moved 40 miles and 30 minutes away. Membership was $230 a year, a bargain. The way a club ought to be, now that I've seen the Ballys' garbage on one hand and the near by pool with tennis club and weight room on the other. So it's wieghts in the basement and out by the shed, with a little basketball and woodchopping when I can!

Gotta try woodchopping. Sounds like it would indeed work up a sweat.

Yeah chopping wood's pretty good. Unfortunately basketball is a near-dead game around here. I'm determined to find time to work at oganizing a loose bunch at some point; most of the "dads" around here are health club & NordicTrac fans. And the younger kids around have no interest or just flat can't play ball. One of the shocks of moving away from the city? I'will probably put a 1/2 court pad in my backyard this summer, I gotta shoot!

no routine...
routines get old
I hate exercise for the sake of exercise I prefer it to be a result of my going out and having a good time!

not sure, I'll have to think on it awhile...

well, perhaps we could harness the pleasure of that activity and combine it with something truly physical...
(got any magazines?)

perhaps if you were to fantasize about climbing, let's say Denali, we could work out some sort of physical movements to actually work the body!
