Is it a kind of app? I only see text or is that supposed to be?

I lately started to do sport. The last year I already lost 25 kilo's which is 1/4th of my weight back then. I basicly did some swimming, like once a week, walked to school every day and didn't eat the big lot I used to and it kinda helped me losing weight but also muscles so now I swim 3 times a week and lift weights while watching tv on the evenings when I don't swim. (because the swimming is enough excercise for the muscles for one day) I can say, swimming a lot gets you kinda jacked pretty fast. Maybe I post a before and after ^^

If you mean the ZombieRun thing, yes, it's an app that you put on your phone and then listen to as you run. My friend uses it and the impression I get is that it makes your run into a kind of game where you have to escape zombies. :laugh:

Yesterday I spent an hour and a half at the gym - 15 mins on the rowing machine, 30 mins interval training on the cross-trainer, the remainder on upper-body weights machines.

I know that free-weights are supposed to be better and more natural, but the free-weights area is always packed full of vain muscley men trying to outdo each other...so I stick to the machines :dry:

the machines are better when one is all alone (without a spotter) ... albeit YOU wouldn't have any trouble getting a spotter ;)

so, it could be that a room-ful of vain muscley men is just what you might need ...

(...besides -- it sounds like great fun ! but that's just me ... :P )
