    okay--you all suck with home conditioning ----...

    alright where do I start...I don't know a lot about guys, but I've done competitive gymnastics for 9 years, and over the summer you do 1-2 hours of pure muscle strengthening, no weights bigger than 10lbs involved..(you're in the gym for 5 hours at a tyme..5 days a week)

    Legs--
    Calfs~ Toe Raises in 3 different ways(stand on your toes, hold on to something to balance, but DONT LEAN) do like...2X25 for starters, I do 2X100 all three ways but I'm unusual.
    Way #1--Point your toes straight forward, do about 2 sets of 25 of those, or less for starters, maybe 2 sets of 10 or 15
    Way #2-- Point toes inward, do a pigeon toed sorta thing...make sure you do the SAME AMOUNT of reps that you did on the other way on this one as well as the next one
    Way#3-- Point your toes out ward, almost like a ballet first position, but not nearly as wide, your heels should be touching. same number of reps

    Shins-- (GOOD FOR SHIN SPLINTS or in general) Bend over (dont be embarassed, noones watching) and put your hands flat on the floor (if you can) this not only stretches your hamstring but makes it easier...to do..
    if you can't touch your hands flat on the floor, then sit on the edge of the bed or something with a back, make sure you are using good posture and tap your toes, at the same time, and flex them fully.
    Do some thing like 2x50 to start, work your way to greater reps

    Thighs-- Lunges or "Mountain Climbers"..theres 2 different ways to do these, each only vary by a little.
    Way 1--"Lunges" Start with hands on hips or at your sides or somewhere you won't cheat with them. Kick your leg up, lunge down infront of you, DONT LET YOUR BACK KNEE TOUCH! it makes it pointless. Push it back up, do it on the other leg... continue...make it harder by doing each leg counts as 2. (right leg+left leg lunge=1,instead of 2)
    Way 2-- "Mountain Climbers" do the same as lunges but jump from your lunged position, switching legs to lunge on the other one...don't let your back knee touch..yada yada yada.

    Hamstrings-- well...I've found bending over for a long time is actually really effective...makes your back hurt too...oh god...


    Okay something REALLY bad just happened to me..if you need/want more orsomething message me on MSN or AIM...---- I'm in trouble...=/
