How many miles can you run for? Running is 10x harder than weight training.

Rest day, 30 minutes today w/ a pickup800m hill at the end with my buddy Matt. Really loving running right now.

 

Gym workout today: Biceps, Chest, Shoulders. All 10 x 3

Dumbbell Press - 30 lbs.

Hammer Curls - 20 lbs.

Shoulder Press - 15 lbs.

Shoulder Shrugs - 20 lbs.

Bench Press - 105 lbs.

Bicep Curls (cable) 15 lbs.

 

Feeling a bit inspired by "How Much Should Distance Runners Lift?"

[Henda]

More ramblings by getbigs resident gross nerd methadone 101 lbs trying to justify being a skinny gay ginger haired nerd devoid of any muscle tissue whatsoever.

The heart is the most important muscle in the body how many of you actually train it instead of fearing it will make you small to do hard cardio (lol pathetic).

I can run a half marathon in under 2 hours, that's 13.1 miles I doubt the unnatural drug abusers on this forum or the IFBB "athletes" could make it further than 1 mile without passing out.

Most "meatheads" think that the "iron game" is hard and Dorian trained "hard". Weightlifting is EASY a stroll in the park compared to endurance sports. I have a lot more respect for an ultra marathon runner's training than the easy social event that is the "training" of bodybuilders.

Whats with the "patriotism" in all this GoRuck stuff?  Most of these morons are neavou-hipsters, former liberal turned "independent" limp dick college graduates who never served in the military and would run the other direction at the first sign of gunfire.

You gotta wonder about these people.

The people who run them are typically right off deployment or heading out or whatever.  As for others -most of the people ihave met train like animals weights wise, cardio wise etc. 

No running - running sucks!  I fng hate running.  Its more about how much shit can you take before you break.

Lot of liberals go on those things and emerge as independents and then begin to cover up that they were liberal in the first place.  The longer they GoRuck, the less liberal they become which is strange because the very idea of GoRuck is pure Socialism, help your fellow man, leave no man behind, look after your brother. 

Batshit I tell ya.

Most I have met are mostly libertarian types, 2and amend types, adrenaline junkies, etc.  Its not for most people. 

don't mean jack shit if you are jacked but cant take cold ass water , be freezing for a long time,etc.   A lot of BB are delusional in that way - they think going to the gym makes them tough.  lol.   Seen so many dudes quit who thought being jacked would help them out.   its laughable

[DroppingPlates]

That was kind'a harsh friend.  

I love to squat.

Whats the deal with them though.  Do they not get that it really is pure Socialistic ideals embedded in GoRuck?  Thats the main thing I got from the video you posted.

No - they get a little cold and start shaking and quit.  Others get a little sand in their vag and cant take it, many others look jacked but fitness wise are garbage.  Looking in shape and being shape are not the same thing.  Some roided out idiot who can't even due a few legit pull ups or pushups usually gets embarrassed and quits in humiliation or sheer exhaustion due t no cardio or fitness level.

Faster than you will ever be able to.

You are obviously full of shite

Not true! I've found that both things compliment one another. My strength is starting to be respectable and I can run a half marathon without a problem.


@TA, that runner guy is so weak! I'm basically using the weights he's using

Socialism doesn't help or look after your fellow man. it cripples him.

there is definetly a synergy between a healthy body capable of performing prolonged or intense bouts of cardiovascular activity and functionality. one makes the other better. a remarkable mechanism is the body. capable of so much but for the most part we dont attempt to build and utilize that functionality or strive to increase it.

like scorp mentioned david goggins. the guys a true machine. just decided one day he was going to do ultra marathons to raise money I think it was for the children of guys he worked with who lost their lives in war. having never run one before he ends up breaking the bones in his feet and came close to renal failure. now he's top of the food chain. what amazed me most abt his story was not just his going out and doing something that should have been impossible, but later on finding out he had a congenital defect in his heart that made it not function as well as a healthy one would. lol

I think you can have it all. be muscular. be able to perform prolonged bouts of cardio. be optimal. the question is how much time are you willing to give up in order to achieve it cause nothing good worth having comes without sacrifice and hard work. this is especially true in regards to your own performance.

I feel that it is mostly a myth that running breaks down your muscle. A myth for the "commoners," at least. For the elite, they're running so lean, they don't want any extra weight holding them down with running. You can gain muscle in a running program if you are lifting and running. I do think running will be a problem for people who look like bbers, but it should be fine for "the everyday look."

Had to run to the gym this morning to be there on time. I feel a bit gay now

for me itīs common sense... find a way to work your heart but donīt kill yourself and your recovery from your muscle building workouts. A Bodybuilder does not Need to run for miles. if you canīt/wont run then bike do what ever. PHA Training made popular by Mr America Bob Gadja is an Option but like circuit Training gets a bad rap by gym Rats. You can use PHA(peripheral heart Action) to lose fat and Keep muscle for a short period...indeed it was said Sergio oliva used it for a short period Training with Gadja. pHA differs from Circuit Training while you avoid a pump..skipping from upper to lower Body.

I couldn't agree more. If you are not going to be a pro in something you could just as well be good at everything. Good endurance, nice physique, strong. That was what bodybuilding used to be about anyway, back in the very old days.
