Dont ever go to a gym as a new years resolution, it will only end in failure because you will see it as a temporary fix of you live pre-2012 and not as the general life improvement that getting fit is.

Either way, make sure you have an idea of what youre doing and not just stroll in there and try out some machines with some smack afterwards (its still scotland)

Its not just the obsessive over-scientific discussion of a running distance with 0 proffesional competative edge (i.e: people watching it), but the way they over-analyze it and make arguments backed up by far-fetched scientific facts about a little run.

Amazing, i wonder if any of them ever even walked 400m

You dont think 80% (or more) of people with life improving resolutions bail out after 4 months simply because it is a resolution and they stop taking it seriously?
If you dont, youre naive.

Did the Body For Life cardio routine (intense 20-min interval running) followed by the upper body weight training today.

Shoulder still isn't up to speed. Getting very annoyed by that. But still getting good workouts, regardless.

I'm going to hurt tomorrow.

New Year’s Resolutions – How To FAIL To Reach Your Goals This Year
I partly agree with this. My only real gripe about new year resolutions that are 'go to the gym/get fit' are people in my way. I don't have an issue with you trying and failing. God knows most people won't even try, gotta give you credit for at least getting out there. But I hate it when people fill up the gym, take forever on the bench or DB's or whathaveyou. I wanna get in, go directly to the bench or machine I want and be able to move to each station I need at my discretion, not have to wait for someone. Because of this I often go about an hour before the gym closes (10pm), and workout when it's empty. My birthday wish is to walk into a gym every time and have it be completely empty and all to myself. Orgasmic.

Dont get a home gym then; you would have sticky trousers every time you walked in.

I have a home gym so no worries for me there. Has barely been used the past three months but that's all changing now. Just got home and will wait till the sun goes down so it's not so damn hot and then I'll do a workout. I kinda found his tongue-in-cheek tone to the article amusing

No one runs at 100% flat out for a 400m sprint from the starting line, they save it for the final burst to the finish.
nah, there's actually a technique.  first six seconds you always run at 100% because you're body is running off of ATP energy.  then you slow down a bit but keep pace with your competitors.  then you start to go 100% at about the last 100m.

so in reality, we aren't running at 100% the entire time, but i think that's because the "run as hard as you can technique" won't result in completing the race in a quicker time.  it's still pretty hard though.  i remember that after my first 400m ever, i felt like i was about to faint.  there was blackness eating away the corners of my eyes and i just fell to the ground and rested.  thankfully i didn't faint, as that would've been really embarrasing
So you're saying you lied? Cool, thought so.
not really, it was more of a clarification.  we're running for the best time possible, and we try as hard as we can to do that.  that can easily be interpretted as '100%'

oh cool, you must be one of those guys who 'lifts weights' and 'eats healthy' without any type of science to backup your workout plan

yeah, i ran a sub 50 400m, along with 3 years of track.  i think i have enough experience to have a discussion about sprinting.

either way, i can't believe it bothers you so much.  stop being a kid and ignore it.  damn bro

Interpreted? Son, we're talking about actual 100%, not the interpretation of it.

the actual 100% can be perceived as doing whatever possible to get the best time

i'm not sure if you're playing stupid or if you are just stupid

So you're palming off as your lack of understanding as "interpretation". Good one champ.

100% is measurable in terms of heart rate, etc. It's a pretty easy concept to grasp.

I'm not sure if you're playing stupid or if you are just stupid. Probably the latter.
