Post: Times for run / squats

[nickyhusky]

I might do that one at some point, just for a laugh. Especially as it doesn't involve rows

My times will be very slow of course. It takes me about 7 mins to run 1km.

I've just figured out what FUBAR stands for lol

7 minutes? that can't be right?

er, yes. Well maybe 6 1/2. I run at 9kmph on the treadmill, so that's actually about 6:40 km and 10:40 mile, or something vaguely like that. Takes me just over 20 mins to run 3k, and about 33 mins to run 5k.

Expect it takes a bit longer outside.

You laughing at me?! I have short fat legs remember.

If I can scale the back squats, I'm up for this. I can probably manage 2 or 3 reps at my fat body weight (92.5kg) which probably defeats the point. If I can scale down to around 75% BW, I can really bring on the pain.

Doesn't it mean BW as in unweighted squats?? That's what I thought.

[Chet]

Nope.

Oh, bugger. Can't do that atm. I'd have to scale.

[Chet]

Just for inspiration:

Mark:

4.20/25 - 4.34/21 - 4.55/20 - 4.48/15 - 4.37/16 (Treadmill) (squat@ 77.5kg)


Steve:

3.57/41 - 3.57/42 - 4.26/29 - 4.36/30 - 4.10/21 (Last man standing round) (Treadmill) (squat@ 100kg)

I think they've scared me more than inspired me. Those are some pretty decent 1km times without trying to remove all feeling in your lower body between runs.

Well if I just aim to take twice as long for the run and do half the squats I should be just about ok...

[Paul]

That's actually insane. I wish I had some way of trying this... it would involve running up 2 flights of stairs at my gym :S

[Chet]

And one flight at mine.

Adds to the fun

Is that a total of 25km running and a leg shattering amount of squats then? As 1 round is scaring me... lots

[Chet]

Sorry for the confusion - its 5km

1 round=
1 km run
