bushido_man96 Posted October 6, 2006 Share Posted October 6, 2006 As a side note, I have learned that training the anaerobic system will have effects on the aerobic system, but training the aerobic system primarily will not effect the anaerobic system all that much. https://www.haysgym.comhttp://www.sunyis.com/https://www.aikidoofnorthwestkansas.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baronbvp Posted December 31, 2006 Share Posted December 31, 2006 Sohan, GREAT post. A couple of thoughts:1. You may not be bodybuilding, but if this is your workout regimen I'd bet you've built a very fit body. This is varsity stuff.2. I haven't seen the term "fartlek" since I ran cross-country in junior high. Nice! And a great workout, whether you fartlek running or on the elliptical machine.3. Chopping wood or digging holes in the yard with a digging bar are great, too. Or try shoveling a pile of river rock. As people are rediscovering the benefit of core training, surprise! They are finding manual labor to be a great workout. Last summer I scraped all the paint off the concrete in my 2200 sq ft basement and thought I was going to die.4. I have a gym in my home with a Parabody 2000 multi-station, benches, dumbbells, elliptical trainer, and a heavy bag. But I don't use it as often as I should. You are right on target about that.Keep up the great posts. You are wise in the ways of science. Only as good as I make myself be, only as bad as I let myself be.Martial arts are like kinetic chess. Your move. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Protagonist Posted January 1, 2007 Share Posted January 1, 2007 Is there anyway possible that your workout can be more convenient for a fifteen-year old? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

baronbvp Posted January 1, 2007 Share Posted January 1, 2007 I still own the home but had to move. The basement's pretty nice, all finished and about half the square footage of the house. I had to redo the entire floor after some water seepage on the slab in the great PACNORWEST rain forest. I built a 12x20 gym as part of the floor plan and I really like it. I even put two 6x4 ft sheets of mirror glass on one wall, which is great for kata or mirror boxing. Like you said, it was cheaper to do a gym at home than buy a gym membership fee and certainly easier to use.In the house I am renting now in VA, I had to fashion one out of a small unfinished bedroom in the basement. It works but is kind of spooky. Good lighting and good music help. Only as good as I make myself be, only as bad as I let myself be.Martial arts are like kinetic chess. Your move.

Ace2021 Posted January 2, 2007 Share Posted January 2, 2007 Great post, Sohan! I bet if a more Karateka trained like that, we'd have a lot more Andy Hugs.(I'm sure you know who he is...but if you don't):http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=2278829415239643675 A New Age Dawns Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His death was a shock, and a great loss to the MA community. He certainly was one tough character, yet with tremendous dignity, courage, and intelligence.RIP Andy.

Havoc88 Posted January 2, 2007 Share Posted January 2, 2007 I believe I have read this topic before, but it was interesting enough to read it once more. I have two questions for you.1. Where did you buy the sledge hammer? I would love to do that, since I think it would be a great workout in a little time, but don't know where to buy it.You gave a great advice on the tire, so when I have found myself a hammer, I will try and get on right away.2. How did you make or where did you buy the 10kg vest? Since I am training pullups a lot lately, I would like to be able to make them a little bit harder once I am able to do 10 proper pullups. Also, I think a vest would help during pushups.Thanks in advance Tom Train harder!Currently: 7th kyu, yellow belt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baronbvp Posted January 2, 2007 Share Posted January 2, 2007 You can buy a sledgehammer at any home improvement store and most hardware stores.Andy Hug looks pretty amazing in that video. I wish I could get my legs that high. How did he die, and at what age? Only as good as I make myself be, only as bad as I let myself be.Martial arts are like kinetic chess. Your move.
