    Welcome to the IHoP

    Currently I can jog at 4 mph on the treadmill for about 100 yards at a time, basically run 100 @ 4, walk 340+ @ 3, repeat; I accredit this more than anything to not running on it in over 27 months and to the fact I just started walking on the treadmill routinely about 9 months ago. We've got 2 25 lb., 4 10 lb., 4 7.5 lb., 6 5 lb., and 6 2.5 lb. plates, a 15 lb. 1" barbell and a pair of 2.5 lb. 1" dumbbell handles along with a bench press...bench, aforementioned treadmill, elliptical, and 5 lbs. of ankle weights.

    Welcome to the IHoP

    Please do. I know close to nothing about working out or sports medicine other than what was drilled into me by junior high and high school coaches. My current workout: MWF: Jackknive: 4 sets, 12 reps Cross Over Crunch: 4 sets, 12 reps Good Morning Darling: 4 sets, 12 reps Bicep Curl: 3 sets, 12 reps Bench Press: 3 sets, 12 reps Lateral Raise: 3 sets, 12 reps Front Raise: 3 sets, 12 reps 2.5 miles on the treadmill ~150 g protein intake on workout days I'd like to get back down to the 220-230 range, but more importantly burn fat/get leaner, increase flexibility/mobility and increase joint/tendon/ligament strength. Running isn't an option (yet). I'll take any help I can get

    Welcome to the IHoP

    only 50 lbs. on the barbell and 8 lbs. dumbbells with daily protein intake of around 120-150 grams also gives me three days of cardio and five days of ab/calisthenics basically the three 'L's: long, lean, lithe

    No heavy weights. I lift for tone and fat burning, not for bulk.
