Old Timer Posted July 14, 2018 Share Posted July 14, 2018 Does anyone do any kind of weight training or conditioning out there? It's been a passion of mine since I was twelve. Even at 51 I stay active in the gym at least four days a week. I'd be interested in hearing about what other people do to stay healthy. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leader rambozo37 Posted July 14, 2018 Leader Share Posted July 14, 2018 (edited) I go to the gym every 2 days. So one week I go 4 times and the other 3. I have to convince myself to calm down since it is a drug for me. I could go everyday and burn myself down. I do - 25min treadmill -1h+ weight training - 20 or 30min stationary bike depending of the time I spent in weights Edited July 14, 2018 by rambozo37 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Old Timer Posted July 14, 2018 Author Share Posted July 14, 2018 @rambozo37 @HZOP That's awesome guys. Love to see others with a passion for living healthy. @CheepHeep Lol, Nothing like a good cheeseburger brother. I think I might go have one right now. Just bought six lbs of ground beef for the week.

Old Timer Posted July 14, 2018 Author Share Posted July 14, 2018 @HZOP I had to completely redo my diet years ago when I had cancer. I always ate pretty decent but I still craved my share of sweets and fast food. After chemo though, I completely quit fast food and a lot of sugar stuff. Diet is definitely a hard one to change. My wife and I started a keto diet recently and I'm loving it. I had to adjust my carbs somewhat due to my activity level but my wife loves it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GoongalaJones Posted July 15, 2018 Share Posted July 15, 2018 Not the conventional conditioning, but I love going to the dojo to spar with whomever is there and get a good workout on a BOB (Body Opponent Bag) 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sonofdoc Posted July 15, 2018 Share Posted July 15, 2018 Oooh boy this is the topic for me. I LOVE lifting. I’m a football player so that’s a lot of what we do throughout the year and offseason. I am doing Speed and Strength camp for the 4th year in a row this summer, and it is great. I’m with the varsity group, so it’s a little more fast paced. I love taking every chance I get to lift. Every single time the weight room is open, I am there. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Timer Posted July 15, 2018 Author Share Posted July 15, 2018 @Sonofdoc What position do you play? I train a few local high school athletes for their respective sports. I'd love to trade ideas. Always looking for ways to improve my product. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Timer Posted July 15, 2018 Author Share Posted July 15, 2018 @GoogalaJones That's awesome. If you're interested I can point you towards some good conditioning. Do they have any type of equipment there? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoongalaJones Posted July 15, 2018 Share Posted July 15, 2018 @Old TimerLifts, a cardio machine and some dumb bells. Not the most varied in terms of conditioning, but at least they are around. Would definitely be interested in your advice! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
