depends on how far you go and how much rest you give yourself. Personally i've been using a "sprint x distance, jog back" set up which is very simple. If anything, just start running, go hard, and push yourself. Use your first day as more of a "finding out" time. The idea is to add more distance/go faster/rest less, etc. from workout to workout, so if anything, you're pretty much guaranteed to make progress off of your first day.

11/10/09 YAY!!! I actually did my HIIT today!! Alright! So heres how my day went! I did 40 Dips at school..then.. I got home, threw on some athletic shorts, a t-shirt, and a hoodie, grabbed my jump rope, and then my training went as follows: Jump Roped (~1 Minute) HIIT (6 Rounds, sprinted to the other soccer post, walked back to start) Jump Roped (~2 Minutes) Push ups (30) Squats (40) Ab Rollers (15) Tucked L-Sit (5 seconds) (Failed) (7 Seconds) (Failed) I dont know why, but i cant seem to hold myself up on my arms like that for a long time.. Heres a picture, anything wrong? Need a better picture? Ill try..  Well.. that pretty much concludes my training today..

Well.. that pretty much concludes my training today.. Move your L-Sit work to just after the warmup. Not at the end of the whole workout when you arms are tired. Makes it tons easier.

Jump Rope (~3 Minutes) Tucked L-Sit (16 Seconds) (Went as long as i could) (Lost Balance) (30 Seconds) (Went as long as i could) (That was really difficult!!!!!!) Push Ups (30) Squats (40) (I hear this cracking sound when i come up, and its from my knees, should i be concerned?) Ab Rollers (15) (Alright, my core is starting to get worked now, i have to look up when i do them  ) I was kinda sore today, and i think my shin splints are coming back.. its like a pain right below my knees... Oh yeah, i also did some standing calf raises, i was reading in the general fitness section, and it said it helps with flat feet

On squats, cracking isn't a problem, so long as it doesn't hurt and you're SURE your form is good! Could you post a video of your squats if you can? If shin splints are coming back, rest. Nothing else you can do. Also, don't workout everyday. You need rest days.

Hmm... Sorry, but I need to see your feet and the curve of you back. Maybe position slightly to the back and looking down? From there, all I can MAYBE tell is that your feet are a little close together.

Oh, so are you supposed to do squats on the ball of your foot like that, or foot flat on the ground? I've done both, and the first position is easier for me.

Stop doing them like that. Feet further apart and flat on the ground. Should look something like this...  Note the lumbar curve, the feet flat on the ground, the body position, etc.

11/12/09 Rest day, went to Red Robin for my moms birthday dinner. Didnt really do anything.. probably shouldve stretched.. 11/13/09 Friday the 13th!!  Going to open gym for some vault work, and some overall training. (I hope i can get my climb-up!!!) Will put details in afterwards! EDIT:  I told my mom YESTERDAY about open gym, and now she wont take me, it was perfectly fine before, and now she wont take me. This angers me immensely Okay so i guess its a rest day.. my calves still feel terrible...

11/15/09 Did some push ups (25) Random L-Sit work, i tried doing a full one, and held it for like a fraction of a second!!  My weight bench was uncovered beneath jackets and such today!! Maybe i should use this.. 11/16/09 Me and my girlfriends 8 month  25 Push Ups Random L-sit work throughout the day, i tried for the full L-Sit, and held it for just a little bit!! I've actually been feeling a lot stronger! Its crazy! I must be doing something right! Thanks for putting me on the right track Spencer!  Some celebratory bench presses just for fun (lol like 30 pounds, not even) im not sure how much weight to go to.. last time i benched.. i did about 65 pounds (weak i know right?) And that would be about it for today

For weights, you make sure you have good form and do a set program of multiple compound lifts. I'd suggest starting strength myself. How much weight do you have to load the bars with?
