Therefore I am going to enjoy my 1.5 kg dumbbell routine before I upgrade to the 10 kg.
I need to try out the 10 kg. If it is too heavy, I settle for a Kettler 6 kg. We'll see how it goes by June.
Like I said, I am enjoying myself right now. For example, whenever I take the stairs now I run!
Currently, I can comfortably do burpee though my execution is a bit slow.
Hence, I am seeing progress in terms of energy and strength.
The idea here is to be a muscular 55 kg runner like Mo Farah. I still want my Statue of David too.
I think I can do it. All I got to do is BE CONSISTENT. I should not weigh more than 60 kg. Still, I believe I should use the elite marathon runners as my benchmark.
If I start conducting corporate training, I will not have the luxury to RUN, READ and WRITE.
What is the ideal weight for a marathon runner?
The average man is allocated 110 lbs (50kg) for the first 5 feet (1.524m) in height. Thereafter, he is allocated 5½ lbs (2.495 kg) for every additional inch (O. 025m) in height. Thus, a man 6 feet tall (1.829m) would be allocated 110lbs (50kg) plus 12 x 5½lbs (2.495kg), which comes to 176 lbs or 12 st 8lbs (80kg). 70 kg
Men: For men the suggestion is that you measure your height in inches and double that figure, before adding 10 per cent. Women: For women they suggest an ideal weight of around 120lbs (54kg) for a runner who is 5 foot six inches tall. 68 kg
That means as an amateur, I can settle at Silver. In this case, Gold is something I should aspire to. However, a Silver should give me the 4 hours marathon.
