    it was a both upper and lower body. Lifting, etc. then a leg exercise where you have a bag of sand over your shoulders, then you do these wierd steps, that you bring your knee to the ground. Now I just do upper body one day, the lower the other. I also jog / walk each day..... I'll go on Google Earth to see how far

    indeed...... it was my first "real" workout, in my (new) school's gym. All of my friends and my (former) gym teacher want me to play football, so I went up to the gym with them to workout, and see the gym. I now go up there every other day alone. However, yesterday I went with one of my friends

    You know, there's a lot of stuff that you can do at home....just simple stuff. Don't mean to sound like a know it all, but theres a lot of stuff that's easier on your body, and quite helpful.

    Like a lunge? With sandbags?? Sounds heinous.

    I'm training for a triathlon so I swim/bike or swim/run 5 times a week and do strength 2-4 times a week. I started a new strength training program that's killing me!! But I can totally see the difference!

    Yeah, no problem. Basically squat (The only way I can think of explaining it is the toilet postion. lol) against a wall, and keep your back straight up against the wall, without moving.
