What are they called and where can I get one?

Nah mate meant, what good would it be to push off the counter with your feet on the floor. Otherwise I would have quoted the other part.

Yeah sorry bout that, completely misread it - have edited my post.

Might sound stupid but ever thought of climbing trees? Its cheap and will give you simular work that rock climbing does.

PS Dont fall

Hahah quite funny reading this stuff on here,

PF if you want me to help you through a program then no worries, I will give you the first consultation and program show for free in the comfort of your own home (I normally charge $60). This will give you enough to start with and give you a much better understanding of how your muscles and body actually work and respond to exercise.

Up to you, just let me know.

Get in touch with white trash. He'll sell you a Bow-Flex and after 3 weeks you'll be "in the best shape of your life"

Another good example of rubbish information.

This what you looking for?

I can't get that link to work...

Hmmm 2 and 4 kg's are gonna become too light very fast. You can start out on them though while getting used to the exercises.

Just give me a PM and I will help you out.

Yeah I started on the 2kg ones, and it got to the point where I was doing about 50 reps (assuming that reps mean how many times you do it??) of certain lifts at a time and knowing that I could still do another 20-30 odd before "feeling the burn". So now I use the 2kg ones for certain lifts, and the 4kg for others...

Babe, you sound hot.

Fancy a shag?

lol long time no see...

Feet up that high? is cheating. Its more a shoulder workout that way rather than arms chest and shoulders. Anything higher than makeing your body level when arms at full stretch is no good (if I remember my wieght training teacher correctly) though the higher your feet are the more shoulder strength you get so idealy you may want about half way between the floor and being level.

lol no feet on the floor hands on the counter... thats why its easy haha

99% of your sailing time you will be hooked into your harness. You only unhook for jumps and transitions, when windsurfing I don't even bother unhooking in a big jump unless it involves getting wrong side up. You will suffer through the learning phases but once you get the hang of things you will most likely find that the muscles that let you down before any others are your forearms, which are really hard to train.

I'll ask Fishslayer how to work out my forearms

PF, I don't know if you have enough space for it but would one of these be any use to you?

EDIT: sorry, gorgous chic not included!

lol I'd love one of those... but they are pretty much outta my price range... and we live in a 1 bedroom place, and I think Sam would get shitty if I blocked her view to the TV with a work out machine like that lol

~~

But yeah... thanks all for your weird and wonderful advise... I'll be sending Fishslayer a PM in regards to a workout and I'm also still looking for that chin-up/pull-up bar thingy...

yeh, the 2kg are too light now if you can do that many. id maybe use those to warm up and then change to the higher weight. thats why the spinlocks are better....can guy heavier disks as needed. think ive got 4.5kg on mine...not sure though.

a good one a mate of mine showed me...hang on the back of a chair with one arm, hold the weight in the other. lift your arm straight out so its shoulder height, lower and keep going. then change sides. i really struggled with that, big time. and another was sit the weight on your shoulder, then push straight up.
use the 2kg with those, as even 2kg would still be too heavy for you....was for me, lmfao.

As previously posted that doesn't do much to build strength. It's too easy.

I have one of those things in my basement that I want to get rid of it so if anyone is interested in it, PM me.

It's disassembled at the moment to fit in the back of a wagon but all there with assembly instructions which I don't mind helping with.
The computer needs new batteries and the sensor magnets need replacing.
