Depending on where you live, consider throwing yourself into a try-a-tri type of race. Smaller than sprint triathlon distance but it gives you the opportunity to get the basic feeling of the event--and it's a great indicator of what you need to work on.

Good luck with your goals

It's difficult to really build your chest if you get into triathlon training, but I've seen plenty of triathletes with outstanding chest development for their size.

So I'm an Olympic athlete (pairs figure skating).. who now after the olympics went on a 3 month bender!!
Ive taken the year off and gained some poundage through some beers and partying. Ive thrown all diet away and been enjoying so much chocolate.. :drool:

But its time to live an actual life again,... Will be posting progress photos and will post my workouts weekly

Olympic weight~ 193Lbs body fat6%
Current weight~ 215Lbs body fat.... chubby.

Goals ~ develop my chest again, and bring back the 8 pack abs!
~ increase cardio levels to superhuman standards! ( i'd like to compete a triathlon in the future but not anytime soon)
~ eat healthier!

if it only took you 20lbs to get from 6% to chubby, u never were 6%...

you gotta understand i have crazy big legs, and to compare lbs to bmi%'s is stupid since muscle weighs much more than fat.
Me stating chubby was just a joke i dont know my current body fat levels.

Did a 2 hour workout yesterday

(( heartrate monitor died on me so i cant give details :S))
45 mins ~ Running around the track
25 mins ~ wind sprints

Mainly did a large cardio workout for fat burning. I assumed the heart rate was at around 170 for the majority of it...
Then i pulled up an old workout and got to it...
