I ran a PT test which is 2 mile run, 2 min of push ups then situps. I took 1 and half min. off my 2 mile run. and I lost no weight but 4 % body fat!!!! We get taped and I took 5 inches off between my waist and hips!!!

Yeahhhh! I was really getting frustrated these last couple of weeks but 6 days a week in the gym were really worth it!!!


Have a good weekend! Time for me to go to sleep!!:yawn:

    Just did mine Friday although in the AF we only have the 1 1/2 mi run. I've been in the gym or on the track a lot in the past couple of months and it paid off huge.
    Not where I want to be, but I'm moving in the right direction. I'm good on p/u and s/u, but my waist needs to get smaller and I need to run faster. Did the run with raging shin splints, but still passed... wouldn't recomend that though if you've got a choice.
    Congrats on doing so good!

    I hate shin splints. :mad:

    I do medical admin
  • Ive never had shine issues, just my calves. Not sure why they hurt soooo bad. I think i need to stretch better! I usually just get on the treadmile and run. I think I actually would have done better on the run but it was a whole 3 degrees outside and I ran on the track in wisconsin......I hate the cold!!!
  • Have a good nite!
