Thats good Phanta, you're damn lucky to have your own swimming pool!

But no chinup bar? Why no pullups? They're the best muscle building exercise in this routine. And yeah, I have to organize this routine around lessons, sorting a routine out so I wouldn't be overly sore for a lesson was a bit of a challenge.

Just beginning the second week. I find the cardio very tough but the strength training not tough enough (apart from the pullups). I recently got some pushup bars which allow a far greater stretch on the chest and really brings the chest muscles into play - more difficult than floor pushups as well, so I'm happy now.

I do one set of pushups, then one set of situps, then one set of pushups, and so on.

The running is the hardest part for me, I need to get my calves workin' again!!

Hey Muaythaidm, people that have been weightlifting that go to the army tend to lose a lot of muscle to gain that endurance. It would probably be more wise following this routine for 2 months or something and then doing the weightlifting, that way you will lose less muscle.
