"any guys out there?" 6-8

Good morning gents - I'm a bit on the sore side today...yesterday, in addition to a long run in the heat, I swam some laps for the first time this season - it sort of cranked by upper body. I'm doing lower body today but I think I'll throw in an extended stretch to even thing out.

So - I'm thinking we should use this thread to talk about goals for the next couple of months. Especially since STS is coming out soon - we want to bring our A game, right?? I'll bet if we push each other, we should be able to accomplish anything :)

My goal for the end of July...
chin-ups - 25 (today i can do 18)
push-ups 100 (today - 70)
mile run 6 min (today - 6.5)

I'll also trying to build mass on my biceps and triceps
I am currently doing sets of 8-10 bicep curls with 35 lb free weights and tricep extensions with 25 lb. I'm thinking I will bump this up a bit. And work on drop sets (yikes)

So...who's with me?? I know my goals are ambitious but certainly doable. And at any rate...I'm ready to put my money where my mouth is.
Catch you all later,
Keith

Hi Keith

Just one more hour left of the day. 75% Heartrate running today. It was kind of hard to get it up that high, I had to go 7.0 MPH for a while, which is fast for me. Probably good to do, though. Next week I'm trying for 80% Heartrate. I may need to use the incline as well as speed. 10 yrs ago I remember doing 2 miles in 16 minutes regularly. That is a good goal for the summer.

Will think about more long term goals tomorrow.
