actually crumpet, I wouldn't. I would work out how far is 1km and then do the time trial for that 1km, you need to be able to recreate that 1km distance at 4 weeks, 8 weeks and again at 12 weeks.
sorry :)
thats cool, im more than happy to re do it. ill shoot down to the running track at work tomorrow at lunch time
I think measurements and a before photo are in the next task ...?
Yes, they are.
I can't get into pre season task vid ... Can anyone else??
Also is there any reason not to train with a headache?
:
The measure up video? No problems here.
And nope! Drink more water, some panadol if you need it and train through it. If you are worried about why you have the headache, see a doctor and get the all clear.
Hmmm I can PN, couldn't yesterday though.
Ok so heres the results of my fitness test, minus the 1km challenge, will do that tonight.
Push up test: 24 on knees
Abdominal strength: 14. 4 seconds :doh:
Wall sit: 32 seconds
Sit and Reach: 6cm
fair to say there is room for plenty of improvement! ;)
can someone please pm me the link to the FB page if you dont mind me joining? thanks!
I'm seriously considering signing up this round - I did a round way back, maybe first round of 2011? But gave up half way through because the scales weren't playing nice lol
I really think I've grown a lot since that time though so I would push myself a whole different way.
I have just got a thermomix for Christmas though and would hate for it to sit there being neglected lol - are there any threads on the forums for converting recipes for the thermie?
can somebody link me to the FB page too!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm going to do my fitness test today. Going to outdoor boxing with some girlfriends tonight so will do the 1km along the river there. I'm a bit scared to see how bad my fitness & measurements have gone since the end of R3 last year.

For those who are interested! :)
Plans are up!
Waiting for everyone to go to lunch so I can sneakily print them off at work!
Just requested to join the group :)
Nai I've heard they are similar to R3 last year. I'm going to have to print them when I get access to a printer, will throw them on a USB stick.
Push up test: 8 toes, 26 knees (way up toe wise on R3/2012 - I only got to 4 on toes by the end - started not being able to do any)
Abdominal strength: 46.2cm (20 sec at the end of R3/2012 - I started at 3 seconds)
Wall Sit: 1:10.2 (down 35 seconds on end of R3/2012 - could have something to do with the killer leg press session I did yesterday & the fact I couldn't walk last night)
Sit and reach: 19cm (was 20cm end of R3/2012)
Run will be done tonight but I am hoping to beat my 8:43 from R3 (I started at 9:46)
:
i havent seen anything yet Ash but ive got a thermo too and will be trying to use it for as much as possible so if i convert anything ill let you know.
great minds think alike! :shhh::
good job!:
Thanks LS ive just requested to join!
Im really looking forward to getting started now!
I'll print them off tomorrow. I still need to do tasks 6 and 8. Will do it all tonight. :)
Glad to have our little group here!! Not ready for FB.
Ash there is a thermie group on FB 12WBT thermomixers but realistically a lot of the thermie uses is the steaming. some stuff can be converted but the FB group i guess i more about thermie lovers sharing their own healthier recipes as well
