I apologize for the condescending tone.
People battling back from injuries or those who have neglected their body for years need to train for a 5k. It just upsets me that people let it get to that point before they start caring.
Best of luck C-Me. I didn't mean to be a jerk.

You've really let yourself go if you need to train for a 5k at a young age. A bit harsh, but true.
Yea, I know my comments are condescending. I'm usually a nice guy.
You're on the right path, C-Me. Best of luck.

Well atleast your screen name is fitting lol. Your right in the sense that under normal circumstances you probably shouldn't have to train to complete a 5k or a 6k. But there is some training involved if you want to win or finish in the top 10. The sad fact is today, especially in America, I think you would be surprised at how many young men and women couldn't run a 5k.

No I'm not surprised at all, I used to whip those people into shape. I'm just upset about it. Didn't mean to take it out on C-Me.
I'm wanting to join a good Muay Thai club where I live, and I want to enter some pro kickboxing or Muay Thai fights. In doing that I will have to flatten the nerve in my shins to condition them again, and also will have to get a lot of flexibility training in(maybe start some yoga).
I want to go for the rest of my belts in Goshin Ryu Juijitsu.
Once I finish some Literacy exams next month at college, I want to do an open University English Literature degree later on
in the year.

I think his goal isn't just to finish the 5k, it's to post a respectable time.
In order to improve your time, you need to train.
Idk, maybe gain 10 lb of muscle. Try to get substantially ripped but not too ripped. In the end, im gonna keep doing the same lifting an exercise routine i do everyday. With more weight added overtime ofcourse. So i guess all in do time.

Bingo. !
I used to train karate when I was younger(14-15)...only made it to yellow belt and didn't stick it out even though my instructor said I had potential...sort of regret it now
I'm 22 now and really into MMA and have been going to a gym for the past year or so (not seriosuly, just for fun) now I want to step it up a little this year...get in shape etc
Getting a heavy bag setup in my basement and gonna hit it 4-5 times a week + my regular gym routine of 3 days a week (2 hours each)
that's about it, hopefully it turns out well

50?
I actually don't know what the minimum is these days. I'm not even sure who the mods for this section of the forums are anymore.
Sorry.

thanks for the giggles
Although commonality is helpful, it's not a necessity in the game of "Amore"
I like the simplistic approach to your' training goals however. the K.I.S.S. method actually works pretty well especially if just starting out or starting back up after a long layoff
