  1. Good to see Shevchenko come up big for Ukraine.

    was heart warming, the guys on ( profanity deleted) (programme showing the game here) as well as the commentators where all saying at half tiime he should be subbed off... Best way to answer the critics. His movement is phenomenal

  2. Not if they keep playing Kerzhakov, he made Torres look clinical.

    Lewandowski really impressed me today. I knew he was good from watching a bit of him at Dortmund. He isn't particularly fast, big or strong, but his anticipation, positioning, touch and feel for where the goal is incredible.

    and hes on his way to utd rumour has it

  6. Yeah. If you like international spy type thrillers, this series is really really good. I just don't get how he makes gold like this and then does some movie about buying a zoo, lol. South Parks take on him is hilarious.

    i might try it, but i cant stand the site of him, i dont know why, just never liked him, whats your reasoning?

    following on from this, whats peoples favourite actors/ess and worst?

    Id say my favs our mark wahlberg, Leo De, Morgan Freeman, Denzell, Zach Galifianakis, Jack Nickolson, Will Ferrel, Liam Neeson, Vince Vaughan, Paul Blart aka kevin james, Jonah hill

    I hate, as above, Matt Damon, also, Colin Firth, Hugh Grant, and Robert Downey Jnr

  7. I just wish they had gone just a bit lighter on all the zig zag quick camera movements. I'm not a big Matt Damon fan but he killed it in that roll, pun intended.

    im not a damon fan at all, i dont watch any of his movies now, its put me off the borne movies, would you recommend it then. I think its best to ask someone who doesnt like him either lol

  8. Speed crunches - on back, legs up, and cross your feet. And crunch fast!

    Bicycles - You're gonna lay on your back and shoot your legs back and forth like pistons, bringing your opposite elbow to the knee as it comes back. You should twist your torso, and lift your shoulder off the ground. (i.e. Right elbow to left knee)

    Boxer crunches - Lay on your back with feet down, knees bent. Crunch up, and twist your torso left and right so that your opposite elbow goes to the opposite knee. Bring your right elbow to left knee, left elbow to right knee. The key is to twist your torso FAST.

    V-ups - Sit on your but with your hands behind your back on the floor. Your feet should be crossed and off the ground. Crunch your knees up to your chest, like a V.

    Hip tilts - Lay on your back, with your legs in the air. Arms flat on the gound at your side. Roll your hips back and lift up in the air. The goal here is to keep your feet high. This is not a speed exercise like the previous ones.

    Snap touches - Very similar to hip tilts. Lay flat with your legs out straight on the ground, and your arms flat laying over your head. Crunch like a V, lift your shoulders off the ground, and without bending your knees, touch your toes with your hands. Also not a speed exercise.

    "Do it right, not fast"

    6 inches cycle - Lay flat with your feet 6 inches above the ground. Some "fun" variations of this are to lift your legs to 12 or 18 inches, lift one leg up at 12 and the other at 16, alternating lifting your legs up and down, etc.

    They're kind of hard for me to explain throught text, but if you need more aid I can look for videos of them on youtube.

    thanks, i know what they all are when you describe them, i just wasnt sure with the names. We call the 6 inches cycle the plank for example, its a tuff one.

    Theres another one we done in school, lay on your back outstreched, arms straight out above you head. Legs and arms together, tehn lift them just a couple inches of the ground, pull your legs and arms up to they touch in the middle then lower them (keeping them together) and bring them down to your starting point a couple inches from the ground, never let them touch, and repeat. its tuff

  9. Do you have access to weights? I could help with arms, and shoulders better if I knew what variety of weights you had access to.

    As far as abs go, doing ab circuits is the way to go. My coach gives us brutal ab wrokouts by doing rapid fire ab exercises with no breaks. I don't know the actual science behind them, but we'll do exercises that complement each other really well. For example, we'll start with speed crunches, then move into bicycles, then into boxer crunches, and repeat. A really killer ab workout you could do is speed crunches, bicycles, boxer crunches, V-ups, hip tilts, snap touches, and finish up with a 6 inches cycle. You can do them for whatever time duration you wish, I would suggest starting at 30 seconds to get acclimated to it, but try and do a minute of each.

    If you need explanations for any of this I can help with that.

    I would you to explain what they are. I'm from the UK and we may call them different here. I don't recognise any of then ab exercises
