Hitting the gym

I would imagine that most of us regular posters here spend quite a bit of time on the computer (work or play). So I was just wondering, in order to keep firm and healthy, how often do you guys work out, do sports, or whatever passes for strenuous physical activities (even if it means just struggling to get off the couch). Me, I hit the courts regularly every Saturday for some b-ball and any other day that I don't have work or classes in the late afternoons. That as well as Kendo twice a week. (Men!!!

So what's your exercise schedule like?

[FanGirl]

I play softball once a week, broomball once a month and I bike to work (19 blocks) 3x a week. Ijust started this routine so we'll see how it goes. I'm not one for going to actual gyms.

I have a fancy shmancy gym membership, but I get tired of people yelling and trying to show off their biceps. When I go, I usually end up chilling in the hot tub, or just standing in the pool, chilling off.

I have been trying to run/walk more, and as much as I love walking, it isn't getting me into shape. Now, mind you, I am alright as far as being thin enough, but I'm not in shape in the true sense. I am focusing more on cardiovascular workouts these days, as opposed to pumping iron, like most gym-going guys.

By the way, while I'm on the subject, I think Bally's sucks, because of all the crap there, they have no basketball court.

And, another random note--I used to play soccer every year, up until when I graduated from high school. I never played in college, except for one summer, and I miss it so. Soccer is the greatest sport of all time, in my humble opinion. If it wasn't so darned hard to get a good team together, I'd probably be out playing now.

The only part of me that's firm are my ever hardening arteries. Bring on the Viagra jokes.

Does masturbating to internet porn count as working out?

No, I seem to spend all day and night on the computer between both jobs but still squeeze in a few workouts a week. But since good gyms are as hard to find as good movie theaters or restuarants in SD, I joined a tennis league last week. Never even played before, other than hitting with friends, but I seem to be holding my own (and not in the way that I referred to above). It's a surprisingly good workout--they bust our ass.

I keep wanting to check out another yoga class, too. Other than being 90% hot women, it was also a ridiculously good workout the couple times I did it. Much better than I expected.

The bike-to-beach thing is easier now, so there's that, too. Basically, if I can shut out the world with the iPod for an hour, working out is fun.

I weigh like 110 lbs. I don't excercise because I'd probably just hurt myself.

But, I'm not a guy... if I was I'd probably like to have a little beer gut. They give you character.

Started a regime a few weeks ago until I got sick this week with a cold. Should be back on my feet and working out early next week I hope.

Schedule:

M - Upper body weightlifting
T - 2 laps around the park in 20 mins or less, around 3 or 4 miles equivalent.
W - Lower body workout

Repeat the cycle until sunday rolls on, which is my free day where I don't have to move a muscle if I don't want to [img]/forums/images/icons/smile.gif[/img]

Dude, I have the Pimp of an excersize room in my basement. Its just a multi-purpose bench, for sit ups, leg curls, and benching, basically, but it can be set for incline benching too.... Anyway.. me and my friend Keith, set it up so its Pimped.

We got a nice ass system in there, with a cd player, and we set up like 10 black lights, throughout the room. Its really tight. Its really relaxing for hte mind as well. Because it literally takes you out of time and space. So really its a real good work out for hte mind as well as the body.


Also I have 2 ropes, tied to my ceiling, for pull ups, a tred mill, and in my other part of the basement, the bigger half, me and my brother Pimped out with eerything from videogames, to a huge ass stereo system, and all that, it also has a punching bag in there. Cuz I'm a Muay Thai Fighter.

Damn you beat me to it, I was minutes away from making fun of that too.

So lets look at what China_Town says he is
An American Male/Female (depending on who you ask) Who is into Asian Philosphy with a computer with over a 1000 viruses, and an Uncle who trained dogs in Vietnam who is being sent to Iraq, also China_town is a Guitar playing Ninja.

So let me break it down in real life
The Ninja, Uncle, and Virus thing is all false
The Asian culture things boils down to, going to the mall eating at Panda express and knowing alittle about Buddha, and maybe having a "healing" bracelet or some other trinkets.

Let me boil it down even more
Stupid Middle Schooler with a computer in his room, and who cant/wont get the point

I get up in the morning... that usually leaves me pretty winded so I have to lay down.

Well, being in the Air Force, we have mandatory fitness standards we have to meet. To meet these standards, my work center goes to the gym, as a group, 3 times a week. We normally start with about 5-10 minutes of stretching, some exercises (crunches, push-ups, jumping jacks, mountain climbers, flutter kicks, leg lifts, etc.), then we will run anywhere from 1.5 to 3 miles. Once this is done, you go work out on your own. We just have to spend at least a total of 60 minutes each of these 3 days actually working out.

Besides these 3 days, we are encouraged to work out on our own on other days of the week. I used to, but I don't any more. I really need to start back up though.

Muay Thai Fighting has nothing to with being a Ninja you unintelligent fuckhead. My pc did have 1500 viruses to be exact. My uncle Did train dogs in vietnam.

You really do go out of your way to figure me out in the stupidest ways possible don't you? You insult me like its the prime goal of your life, to get me to leave this site. You don't get the point you fuckhead. I'm not leaving, because you guys want me to. Get a clue. I'm in college. I'm smarter than you can ever comprehend. For all you know I'm one of Kevin Smiths friends. Or in fact Am Kevin Smith, just being an [censored]. But I'm not Kevin Smith. You're such a jackass. Do you stay up all night thinking of shady insults and stuff? Because thats what it looks like. I'm sorry if I have a fascination about ancient cultures, My p.c. did have 1500 viruses on it.

Who ever said my uncle was a ninja? I said he was a dog trainer. They do Use dogs in the military, you fuckin genius. If you had any sort of a brain you could figure that out. I don't know where you came up with the Ninja thing tho. The fact is. Your a middleschooler with nothing else to do. I do play the guitar. and I"m going to be hittin some stages up in ohio in a few months. I'm talkin about: The Agora Theatre and all the other concert halls. Because my friends got connections...

You act like you know who I am. You've no idea. Its funny cuz I just replied to this work out thread in response to my daily work out. And you've boiled it down to another China Town bashing thread. Oh yea and Fuck you too Smurfy. You're just a bitch.


How come I'm not banned yet?

4 weeks? How about 1 week like I said mark?

Shouldn't talk when you're too lazy to even walk bud :P

[marksiwel]

You claimed that your Uncle was going to be sent to Iraq. Which is bullshit, if he served in Vietnam he would be in his 50's or 60's, therefore he wouldnt be able to be sent to Iraq unless every dog trainer in the US Army, Navy, Marines, Coast Guard, and Airforce DIED. I never doubted that your uncle served in Vietnam, I doubted that you said he might be sent back into service.

Who cares about Kevin Smith. Hell if he read half the crap you posted he would wish bad things upon you like the rest of us. And if your Kevin Smith, than ANYone can get behind a camera and make a good movie.
