If anything, buy yourself a dog that you can take for a walk.

Watch Craigslist for a good buy. I got a real good one for a couple of hundred.

Fuck that. The majority of the time it's going to be cold,hot or wet. Plus they never heard about sidewalks in the south. You'll get your ass ran over walking these narrow winding roads.
Ellipticals tone upper body too.

When I was down in Georgia for the summer in 2010 I went running all the time.

The sidewalks were indeed shitty, and there was trash laying everywhere......and it was hot and humid as shit.

But it was still enjoyable because cot dangit, walking outside is what humans are supposed to be doing. Not doing thee moonwalk on some weird robot surrounded by 4-walls and a roof dadburnit.

here ya go: Strong praise for Philipp

biggest thing to me is an O-lineman saying this:
Lewis said he’s noticed Philipp has stressed more full body workouts. He said the linemen have been doing more hang cleans and power clean lifts. There’s been more focus on the lower body and building leg strength.

now why in the world would an o-lineman need leg strength?

another article (LJS so you can read if you havent' been to their site in a while) Huskers like early results under new strength coach Philipp : Latest Husker News

most interesting:

Junior Nate Gerry said the lifts focus on adding explosion, and the team is clearly running more than in the past.

The early results have been beneficial. Gerry believes the team is in better condition than it was for the bowl game.

"Last year, we did a lot more power things. This year, we ran a lot more than we did last year. A lot more," Gerry said. "And the type of movements we did in the weight room, we did a lot more mobility, athletic movements, where it can benefit us on the football field. We did a lot more Olympic lifts. One thing we wanted to emphasize this offseason was our mobility."

For the first time since junior defensive tackle Maliek Collins has been in the program, players have been doing their power lifts from the floor, under the direction of NU's new football strength coach Mark Philipp.

"They feel like coming from the floor, for any lift, it's more explosive," Collins said. "It's something that kind of directly translates to football, especially with offensive linemen, defensive linemen, who are coming out of stance with powerful movement."

'I can't feel my body'

I just can't believe how different of a style I'm hearing for our S&C program. been saying that was a problem for years and I'm pretty sure this spring and summer might be proving it.

MP doesn't come across as the type of guy who's going to let you walk by his office while you scrape by doing the bare minimum in your normal routine workout without him even saying a single word to you
In retro Dobber got a job at the local hostage negotiators office, he tried to call in sick but they talked him out of it

If he is much better than Dobson, then we will immediately see a huge difference in the trenches.

If we're 5 games in and I don't see a difference up front, then I want someone new. That's as simple as I can put this situation. Get 'em stronger up front or don't coach here.

I ain't fuckin around this time!

Sounds like they were doing circuits.

Circuits are fucking brutal if choreographed correctly.

MIND BLOWING that a lot of the players were talking like they'd never done a circuit workout before.

Basically you have several different stations working different muscle groups you rotate through at a fast pace with little rest in between. It's just as much about cardio as it is about building muscle. Much more intense than lifting or running by itself.

The mass vomiting sounds about right.
