The SAS Vs 'Average Joe' 09/09/2009
Sofa King Awesome is doing a " SAS" Fitness training regimen. (Minus the whole having a gun thing.) Ok ladies and gents, This is no Fa king joke. The "SAS training guide" is a killer. Our good friend Sofa King is taking the challenge, and hoping to win one for all of us 'Average Joe's' of the world. First a little background. Sofaking is an I.T nerd, he loves his sport, but his daily bread comes from sitting on his skinny arse. I asked him his stats and here is what we are working with: Weight:70kgs Height: 182cm Dangle: 9inchs. So in other words he is 6 feet of sinew and bone. To prepare for this massive undertaking he used a tried and true method of training , that was: Get drunk for almost 2 weeks straight in Queensland. Litres of Wild Turkey being the weapon of choice. Now he has completed the warm-up, it's onto the real workout. We are at Day 4 and everything has been relatively gentle so far. We have only 1 report of a possible injury, and that is a sore elbow from doing body-weight "dips". We'll monitor this as it progresses. Remember Sofa King "Pain is just weakness leaving the body". Here are his thoughts after 3.5 days: "Ok. So far Sofa King good. I have completed the first 3.5 days and other than a few niggles I am going well. The program appears to be very well designed allowing you to recover. I am finding my weak areas so I will be working hard on them, but it gives me a platform to see my progress. I am finding the exercise’s ok, with the real test being mental toughness. I just have to keep telling myself to keep going, the pain you are feeling is false. If I can keep this up I will be good. I think after 3 – 4 weeks I will be in a rhythm and will find starting exercising easier, the only thing that will add challenge is the increase in intensity. However that said it is definitely achievable. I challenge everyone to give it a shot!" "The next three days I will be completing:" Here folks, is a peek of what is required for the next 2 weeks to be completed successfully.. * Body Weight Circut is below Good Luck Mate, I'm glad I'm not the one doing it.
