why running shoes ??

have decided to do some athletic / fitness training.

tired of lifting weights. their so boring,useless, overrated and decreases flexibility.

bodyweight exercises and cardio from now onwards !

It's the Gabbars shoes

For me, it will be watching Indian TV channels (the Tamil channels have day long programmes for Diwali), get it at 5am in the morning and take an oil bath, eat special snacks and sweets made by mom. This time maybe will buy some of the crackers that the US sells for July 4 and will burst here..... Wont get anything now coz I am going to get a real costly cell phone in November once I get some job.

Will probably get new clothes, and we'll sit down for a nice pooja or two. Might go to a gharba.

No chance of any big gifts though, money is tight this time of year.

Cardio is good but lifting weights is boring and useless?! You're crazy. You're either doing it wrong, have too little weight or too much. If you lift weights right you'll see the results within a month. And no, it does not reduce flexibility, that's what stretching before and after the workout is for.

and this just shows your immaturity. i've been lifting weights for almost 2 years now.results ?? i've gained 7 kgs of muscle mass in 4 months;thats pretty big for an ectomorph. i know how to tone / develop each and every muscle in my body.

i've seen arnold like creatures in the gym who cant even do proper 50 pushups(forget dand) and even 10 pullups(and am not talking about "dead-hang" ones...thats just torture for them). they cant even run for 10 mins on the treadmill and avoid it in the fear of losing weight ! :sarcasm

and the worst part is it doesnt challenge the cardiovascular system at all.
most of the exercises are just sitting on your ass and lifting according to your convenience. and if you are lifting heavy, it puts enormous pressure on your central nervous system,painful DOMS etc.

sure, you'll get a bulked up figure and attract the ladies but do you know how much pressure your knees,ankles etc have to take !

when will people understand that size isnt everything !!! :doh
look at bruce lee. he was just 5'7, 135 pounds but was a martial arts dynamite. he can knock down Mr.Olympia's within 10 secs.

seriously, try 45 mins of even medium-level intensity bodyweight exercises
and you'll know how much you fatigue.

but it depends on an individuals goal. so, i cant be too judgmental.
if you love lifting weights and love mass....then good for you !

my goal is - 25 dead-hang pullups, 75 pushups, 50 dand,100 crunches and 3 mile run (in 20 mins).

hence, as you can see, lifting weights doesnt help me much !
