\10 events with the most difficult event being the stair master, which you have to do for 3 and a half minutes wearing 75 pounds of weighted vest. I think the setting is set to 1 stair every second. So practicing on the stair master at your gym is a great way to get ready for it. I think the last time I passed it my time was 7 mins 46 seconds your allowed 10 mins 15 seconds if i remember right.
Ah, I have a weight vest that I've been meaning to schedule in times to run up and down staircases at a building downtown here as well. I don't have a gym membership because 90% of a gym is a waste of money for me. Lifting machines don't do anything, I have all the free weights I need, and I can do cardio outside on my own. Only reason I'd get one is for a stairmaster =/.

Also, with all the cardio and calorie burning workouts your doing you might want to consider taking Glutamine. Its a powder that helps your muscles recover quicker and slows the lactic acid buildup caused from muscle stress.
I'll look into it, thanks for the tips!

This semester in addition to an hour and a half a day in the gym, which I really enjoy, I'll be doing organized PT 3 days a week and riding my bike around 70 miles mon-friday.

I figure I'll be in good shape, I usually am anyways.

EQ kind of gets in the way of good fitness routines for me, when you get glued to your chair it's tough to eat those meals, drink those shakes, and just basically move around.

I HATE walking into the gym after sitting on the computer for a few hours gaming. I generally don't play until the evening anymore.

I suggest looking into Crossfit if you're strapped on time. It's a little difficult to start because of all the different workouts/some equipment you need, but after that it can all be done from home, and it's typically one of the hardest full body workouts I've ever done, and leaves plenty of time for EQ :P

I'm also very anti-gym though. For the 30-60 dollars a month most cost in the first 5 months you can buy pretty much a full set of decent equipment and never need to go to a gym again.

I have a dutch Shepherd, an endurance herding dog. As my workout partner I force myself to keep up with him on runs and hikes 3+ miles in duration. He has become my primary motivation to get healthy and fit again and im grateful for that opportunity.

What I really need to work on is a proper affordable diet and move myself away from these fatty foods all too common in markets, I have a migh metabolism so i never put on any significant weight but I know it still harms me in non visual ways (like my heart, endurance, etc).

Man, if you guys told your gay gym buddies that you play'd EQ, they might not teabag you at your next frat boy party.

Kash and I do p90x everyday. Before the summer started we were doing the full routine, think we actually got to 115 days consecutive, during the summer we just do cardio and kempo x.

I stopped doing MMA in May because i broke my PINKY lol.. but I'll be heading back to it I'd guess around November. During the summer I really have no interest in working out too hard considering the effort we put in earlier in the year to tighten up for the beach.

Summer = naps, everquest, beers, beach.

edit/note: i didnt stop because of the pain, it's just impossible to avoid it being rebroken every fight.
