How much exercise do you get?

Pighead

Pighead was lying in bed last night minding his own business trying to think of something to think about to pass the time until he fell asleep. Couldn't think of anything so decided to sing songs. Picked "Tears in Heaven" by Eric Clapton because it's a nice soft song which meant there was less danger of waking up Miss Piggy.

Anyway was just about to get to the lovely
"Time can bring you down
Time can bend your knee" bit of the song when AAARRRRGGGGHH. Out of nowhere a piercing thundering pain went flashing down the left hand side of Pighead's firm hairy chest. The pain was incredible. Seriously thought the game was up and this was how it was all going to end. Tried to say a tearful goodbye to Miss Piggy but the voice was weak and she was snoring quite loudly.

Thankfully after about 45 seconds of sheer hell the pain abided and Pighead was able to finish singing his song, but to be honest the whole experience has left an impression on this poster. Woke up this morning and decided to address what had happened earlier on that morning. The pain was obviously a message from God. A message which stated "You need to start doing some star-jumps Pighead."

So as of today, Pighead has decided to initiate his exercise routine. 10 starjumps first thing in the morning and 15 press ups last thing at night. It's time to treat this beautiful body with the respect it deserves.

So how much exercise if any do you partake in?

Walking to and from work. Thats all. Really need to do some more!

I don't have a planned exercise regime but I do walk quite a lot.

I run quite a bit. Maybe 10-15 miles per week.

Those could have been muscle spasms Pighead.

I never exercise as I don't want to risk losing my beautiful flab.

Do you eat well Pighead?

A good diet is far more important than an serious exercise regime, in fact - exercising on a bad diet might even do more harm.

Excessive blood sugar spikes, unhealthy Trans fats and overly relying on grain based carbs (rather than healthier carb options such as those from fruits and vegetables) are the biggest threats to Cardiovascular health.

Pighead eats pretty well although he's a hoor for the salt laden cup-a-soups. Can't get enough of those bad boys.

Make homemade soup every second Tuesday of every third month which is full of nutritious goodness. Recipe is as follows: Water (3 pints of), Garlic (3 cloves finely chopped), chilli (1 red chilli pepper) finely chopped, 3 spring onions, a dash of ginger, sweetcorn, two stock cubes and a wad of spinach leaves.

I go to the gym four or five times a week.

I'm a virgin so I'm going to pretend I'm not by saying I get loads of sex.

Exercise programme:

Take one Weetabix.
Take an Aero chocolate bar.
Crumble the Aero over the Weetabix.
Voila. Aerobix

Love exercising, seriously cant get enough of it. Only problem is I'm injured so cant exercise as much as I'd like but still do something as often as I can. In full flow I would be doing something at least 5 times a week.

drunkymonkey

Used to go to the gym 4/5 times a week, and on the off days used do stuff at home, situps/pushups...... was a bit addicted!

But since i started working more and more i got lazy and i find it hard to go once a week! I really do miss it though because i used to love exercising!

Used to swim too after the gym quite a bit!

Do a bit of Thai boxing now but its a struggle!

Pretty impressive Minstrel. There's no fat dogs in your house by the sounds of things.

'Business time' twice a day keeps me fit;) Sometimes I have to move slow though in case the hairy husband on the bed next to us stops singing and cops on ...

I don't have a planned exercise regime but I do walk quite a lot.

I fast-walk up the very steep St Patrick's Hill in Cork every day. At the top, I take a right and walk up another hill (not as steep). It's nothing spectacular but it's a bit of a workout and keeps me fit and feeling energised.

If your implying that you make love with Pighead's lady whilst he's singing you should immediately prepare your face for a workout. With Pighead's fist.:cool:

I don't have a planned exercise regime but I do walk quite a lot.

At the moment,can vary between 1 hour of football to 4,5,6 hours.

In 2 weeks, it'll be about 200k of cycling per week along with weights in the gym and prob 2-4 hours of football per week.

Earthhorse

I run two to three marathons a year.

And by run I mean organise.

And by organise I mean sponsor other people to run in them.

Pauleta

Exercise in fits and starts. Whenever I'm arsed basically.

I walk about 2k a day

kylith

I don't have a planned exercise regime but I do walk quite a lot.

I cycle an hour a day Monday-Friday, and I walk at least an hour every day. I'm feeling much better for it, and lost a grand total of 4 stone in about 18 months (I don't know exactly how long it took, I never weigh myself).

bazmaiden

I'm a virgin so I'm going to pretend I'm not by saying I get loads of sex.

I play a bit of sport but generally in work i'm on my feet walking all day so I guess that keeps me healthy (enough)

as for "buisness time", safe to say i'm pretty, pretty healthy

That's it slimebag. You've pushed Pighead too far this time. You obviously didn't read the bit in the original post where Pighead clearly stated that he has started a rigorous fitness regime which is designed to give him the body of a well oiled robot.

You will be found Fitz and you will receive an almighty session of horrible name calling. There will be tears. And you can take this for starters: (fcuk the threat of getting banned, too angry to think of that right now) You're a horrible potty mouthed ninkempoop.:mad:

I've been thinking about doing some excercise a lot lately. So much so, that I am too tired now to do anything. Phew, hard work this.

Irishcrx

Football 2-4 times a week depending how busy I am but always at least two. Also running with the dogs in the evenings and weekends and I do weight on a saturday/sunday morning. So yeah I reckon I'm fairly in shape other than the smoking, have to nip that out soon enough.

Sephiroth_dude

I go to the gym 2/3 times a week,thats it really.

Pfft, exercise is a dirty 8 letter word.

In fact, for the remainder of this post, it shall be written as ********.

I went to the pool last night for the first time in, oh, 2 years. Did 2 half lengths, and decided that was enough, and went and sat in the Jacuzzi and Steam rooms until herself was finished.

I'm blessed with good genetics. I smoke, I eat whatever I want, and I'm still underweight. I'm 5'7" (ish) and I'm less than 9 stone. Haven't gone over it since I was 16.

Could do with actually putting on a few pounds, and being able to run the length of myself, but meh, effort.

Gimme them crisps, and screw you ********!

Used to be in a gym and did a lot of running. Must get back into it soon.

I don't have a planned exercise regime but I do walk quite a lot.

I run about 70k a week. If I am training for an upcoming race then I will put in some proper distances and hit well over 100k a week.

I also play sport on my rest days. Recently got into playing frisbee ( I refuse to call it ultimate frisbee cos it's not ultimate unless the frisbee is a blade or on fire) The sport is great for sprinting and out here in the hot weather is really nice to play it in

You must have more mileage on you than my old VW Golf!! Holy locomotion, Batman! :eek:

RocketFalls

Exercise in fits and starts. Whenever I'm arsed basically.

Thirty-ish push-ups every two days or so, 40-ish star-jumps whenever I remember and brisk walking every day, because I like to walk fast.

Black Swan

Strenuous workouts daily, or I just don't feel right. Either in a class, or something fun like swimming, surfing, or dancing.

I don't have a planned exercise regime but I do walk quite a lot.

I'm doing c25k and sometimes I walk to work also, it's 4.5k each way so it's good

banshee_bones

Ruu_Old

I don't have a planned exercise regime but I do walk quite a lot.

I have become a compulsive exerciser over the last few years! 3 mile run every second day along with an hour to two hours of strength training and a bit of yoga. I walk about 2-3 miles to and from work, depends if I stop off somewhere or go wandering which happens.

Dord

I walk about 6km a day (to&from work). I should really do more exercise but I'm a lazy bastage.

entropi

I don't have a planned exercise regime but I do walk quite a lot.

Hurling training twice a week at 90 mins each session, usually a match every 2nd Sunday and I also run twice a week, minimum of 7-8 miles each run.
