Do you bassists excercise...?

[Senator]

What do you guys do to stay in shape, if at all? :poke:

 

I try run around 5 miles a day.

This is my second year of being in my school's Cross Country team, but suffered with a hip injury half way into the season. It's still hurting, but I'm still getting by. I should get it checked out again soon, though.

 

 

I planned on running the California International Marathon Relay with my coach and a few of his friends. Anyone else a runner?

[bassguy]

starting p90x next week...google it

[fingeringam]

I like to try run a few miles at least once a week

I just look so dam goofy running cause im 6'6

 

I've worked out 2 days on 1 day off since high school

In an effort to put on weight, but most times I end up burning more calories than muscle I put on

[lonerstoenr]

I do martial arts and swim 2-3 times a week.

[Bass8987]

I lift weights 4 days a week and do cardio 3 times a week.

 

For weights I do:

Mon-Legs and abs

Wed- Back and shoulder

Fri- Arms (triceps, biceps and forearms) and abs

Sat- Chest and abs

 

For cardio, I do HIIT two times a week (15-20 minutes) and a 3-4 mile run once a week.

 

I try to eat a clean, healthy diet and eat 5 meals a day with LOTS of water.

Having a clean, healthy diet is extremely important.

 

I'm considering getting a PT certificate after I graduate from college (it would only be a part-time job). But I don't know if I can put up with overweight people and their bull{censored} excuses and bitching.

With all the exercise material, suppliments, etc, looks pretty pricey. Is it?

[Crescent Seven]

Meth keeps me skinny.

 

[mrcrow]

walk a bit as the weather allows...4-8 miles sometimes

usually a 3-4 walk around my housing area mid afternoon

i just go a high reading on a cholestorol putting me at my age/weight/blood pressure and chol readings in the high risk bracket of 30% likely in 10 years to get a heart problem

so now i am really concentrating on good diet and exercise...thought i was ok

[Bryan316]

I exercise every time I get on stage. I'm a sweaty exhausted mess every time. That's my calorie burner.

 

But I would love to get back to jogging again. Haven't gone out all this year.

[MisfitKay138]

walk to the library once or twice a day, which is only a couple blocks, but cant walk for too long of a time at once. other than that dont really do anything. im chunky but not completely unhappy with my looks, although i would like to firm up a little more. dont wanna be a skinny bitch

[Sugarskull]

I used to jog quite a bit and then they put a citywide ban on women being out after 6:00 PM and cautioned us all to not travel alone of we can help it. My only time for that was about 7-9 PM, so I've had to find other ways to get exercise. It has not been as successful in keeping me slim.

 

I just learned some new exercises from a burlesque dancer last night. I'm going to try them out this week, they seem fun.

yup. They're blaming gangs but I think it has a lot more to do with the fact that there are 10 men for every 1 woman between the ages of 20 and 40 in this town. There's a definite gold mine style boom going on and all the violence that comes with greed, money to blow on booze and drugs and nothing much else to do but fight has been hot on it's heels.
