Probably 20 minutes or so on the stairmaster and then some squatting. Definitely more a weights kind of guy over cardio.

Niiceee. I used to do natural body building when I was like 18-20. But then somebody asked me "what is your goal? to grow and gain muscles indefinitely?" Then I quit.

Also, it became an obsession for me... I hit the gym back then twice a day 5 days a week, 2 rest days. Men.. I was RIPPPEEED. But also didn't do anything besides.

Feck, that sucks donkey balls!

I'm fairly religiously a Scotch lover though. Irish whisky is filtered to **** so it tastes like hot water and bourbon tastes like candy floss flavoured dust.

My favorite was Auchentoshan, you should try it if you haven't already. It's the best ever and I had many.

I get what you're saying about obsession man. I would spend 14+ hours a week some weeks. Hard you find time for other things though

I also did krav maga in that time. Was a nice combination with body building. Although I did not use steroids, I felt roid rages after krav maga training. I wish I could do it again... but I chose career progression over body building.

I'm now into bike racing, for which you need to be light. So back then I was like 92 kg. Now I'm around 70-71. Body aft 5% I guess. But perfect for cycling.

Oh nice and to be honest if you're really that low body fat you're killing yourself. 5% body fat is only sustainable for like a week or two before you start seeing major health issues.

I guess then my body fat must be higher, coz I really feel fine. I'm 187cm so 70-71kg is not that weird IMHO.

It gets hot where I live, and it's only going to get worse. So I'm juggling between the idea of making my garage useable and comfortable as a workshop, or renting out a small A/C cooled warehouse to do my work.

I mean I don't doubt you're low body fat but I'd say you're probably closer to 10% which is still very low.

I was 185/70 in my serious racing days. You could count almost all of my ribs. I was sick a lot of the time. I still couldn't climb worth **** because 70kg is *still* just too much to haul up a mountain.  Now I'm 86kg, never get sick, and feel like a fatty... but it's mostly due to injury downtime. Well, and getting old.

Oh, and it's Blair Athol 1988, sherry butt, for me right now.

Yeah I went a bit over the edge with cycling. I can get very ambitious from time to time. So last three months I sat 4-5 days a week on the tacx (race bike in an apparatus so that you can cycle at home as well). That, and/or 3 times outside (60km approx per training) per week.

But last two weeks I did nothing coz I hadn't had time..

hahaha luckily we can do what we want at the office. as researchers who only have to publish enough papers in a set period of time, not working at the office only screws up your only career in the end by not getting tenure or extension

Yeah...I should probably put a little on. I used to "jojo" summer train and around 74 kg winter fat and around 85 kg. So I decided to try to keep it lean and I've managed to do so for 3 years now.
