How do you guys work out/excercise?

by **A-BIack_Man** 2011-01-11, 01:00

just wonderin. i dont hear a lot about workouts here. I'm just curious, and maybe someone could get some tips/advice from other manly men here, since all of us are beasts, am i right?

i used to lift a lot during the summer, and could actually lift a lot of weight for my size. then i didnt do football and my lifts lowered, but i don't care. since christmas the weight room has been closed, and i probably won't lift anymore at my school since i get to leave before it opens. which means i'm probably gonna start running miles again, and i'm not lookin forward to it. i always do this ab workout at night. its pretty tough, or at least i think it is.

by Jtull 2011-01-11, 01:12

I don't really have a set workout I just tend to do some sport and bike places and walk. thats it really.

by **Darkwing** 2011-01-11, 01:29

Using the internet counts as exercise right?

I used to walk all over tarnation until we moved to Greenwich (which I was quite opposed to at the time and still am and now, my parents wish we didn't move here either and sometimes I really feel like smacking them and saying "told you so," my logic is impeccable but no, let's not trust the teenage kid)

And I used to lift weights a little, but I dunno, I never have the motivation to keep up with it. Now I could bench 50, but I can't remember if our weight set is in kg or lb, it has to be pounds cause 50kg is nearly 100lb, but I'll check in the morning

by Jtull 2011-01-11, 01:32

only 50 pounds?! seriously?! I can bench like 65 Kg at least thats like 110lb

by **Darkwing** 2011-01-11, 01:36

like I said, I dunno if the weight set is in kg or lb, I only remember the number 50

by Jtull 2011-01-11, 01:37

I am hoping its Kg because 50lb is tiny

by **Darkwing** 2011-01-11, 01:39

Well I;m tiny so don't judge

by Jtull 2011-01-11, 01:45

50lb is 25Kg that is like umm the weight of a full pack

by **Darkwing** 2011-01-11, 01:47

Well it could be kg, but I really don't know, like I said, I can't remember and I can't check until morning

by Deoran Drages 2011-01-11, 01:56

even though im pretty lazy with taekwondo these days (which means i rarely bother going for training more than once a week), some of it rubbed off on me and for a simple workout i just work from up to down, arms, abdominal, and then thighs

by Jtull 2011-01-11, 01:57

I just do some climbing every now and then.

by **Darkwing** 2011-01-11, 01:59

I feel so lame now that you guys do all these "special" activities....ok, well maybe I don't feel lame, but still, uninteresting Razz

But I don't really care to be interesting, otherwise I would do interesting things

by Jtull 2011-01-11, 04:29

yea I tend to do a fair bit of extreme stuff its great.

Hey don't worry we like to say we do stuff but how often do we actually do it =P

by Jtull 2011-01-11, 05:39

well I dunno how often any of you guys do anything really if you catch my drift.

by leewatson1 2011-01-11, 06:03

Exercise,workouts? Does walking 1/4 of a mile from the bus stop to college count, otherwise I don't do any. I will start to if I'm going to join RAF

by Jtull 2011-01-11, 06:10

I think 1/4mile is enough work.

by Shemuel 2011-01-11, 08:03

I should go to the gym, but all my exercise comes from activities/sports.
Personally, working out for the sake of working out seems uninteresting.

by **Thingy** 2011-01-11, 10:33

Gratuitous amount of wan... Uh... I mean.. Wearing very heavy sweaters. Yeaaaah... Sweaters... That's it... Now, excuse me, i have to go... Wear a heavy sweater... Yes... Nothing masturbation related whatsoever... Why are you looking at me like that?

Nah, but i litterally don't work out at all. I just eat very little and walk to/from the train, also have PE (work out class basically) once a week. Used to work pretty well, but i'm going to have to hit the gym... I've litterally gone up like 5-8 kg in the last three weeks. Egyptian food is fucking awesome, but it's basically 90% refined fat.

by **Destral** 2011-01-11, 11:57

I push carts. Thats my workout. And I get paid for it Very Happy

by Vedic 2011-01-11, 12:20

I sit on my ass for most of the day, and some how lose weight, if that counts.

nice. You're like a pro athlete!

by jls1233 2011-01-11, 16:46

I'm loving the honesty here guys. Good work (:

by Shemuel 2011-01-11, 17:55

And pray tell, what exercise do you do?

by jls1233 2011-01-11, 18:03

Well i used to do alot of long distance running but i really can't be bothered anymore. I just really like going for long walks and the occasional mountain bike =P

by Philly Homer 2011-01-11, 18:40

Weights. Dumbells only though cause I don't have a bench, do like 75 reps every other day. Days in between I run a lap around my neighborhood and do about 40 crunches. Oh and I drink lots of water.

by Jtull 2011-01-11, 18:45

your a hard out, I just walk places and stuff

by Philly Homer 2011-01-11, 18:47

I've pretty much become a health nut the past few months. Swore off fast food and everything. Heh.

by Jtull 2011-01-11, 19:01

so no double quarter pounders and no fish and chips?! wow what a hard life

by jls1233 2011-01-11, 19:21

i eat whatever i want, but i usually cnt be bothered preparing the food haha

by Jtull 2011-01-11, 19:22

food is for eating and thus I like

by Galaxy-Scarface 2011-01-11, 20:01

i only work out in PE class. and i can bench about 10

by Jtull 2011-01-11, 20:06

pounds?

by **A-BIack_Man** 2011-01-11, 20:46

why question everyone? doesnt really matter, i should have put in the first post dont judge or lie.

by jls1233 2011-01-12, 00:39

Definatly (:

by **Darkwing** 2011-01-12, 01:35

Well it's too late for that JTULL *glares menacingly*

And I've more or less successfully cut out pop, though I got worse over Christmas, but getting better again. It's very difficult when you're allowed a free drink at work and all you can have is pop...

by **A-BIack_Man** 2011-01-12, 01:48

my brother is a diabetic, so we only have diet pop at our house. it's really easy not to drink, i even get milk at restaurants.

by **Darkwing** 2011-01-12, 01:49

I get Chocolate Milk. Love chocolate milk. And diabetic pop is almost equally as bad, just in different ways *coughaspertamecough*

by Jtull 2011-01-12, 06:48

pop I am guessing is your word for a carbonated beverage?

by Shemuel 2011-01-12, 07:20

Trust me, when you have to buy your own drinks, tapwater and alcohol are the only two you'll need.

by **Darkwing** 2011-01-12, 12:53

Chocolate milk is generally less expensive than alcoholic beverages and it tastes significantly better. And I know this because I do in fact buy my own drinks.

by Jtull 2011-01-12, 16:55

cocolate milk is the best drink evar!

by Philly Homer 2011-01-12, 17:27

Yeeeaaaahhh except not really

by **Darkwing** 2011-01-12, 17:28

You just lost an awesome point

by Jtull 2011-01-12, 17:33

Cocolate milk is well to be honest probably one of the few drinks that you can drink at any time of the day and it will always taste good.

by **Darkwing** 2011-01-12, 17:39

Aside from water, it's the best drink out there IMO. And it doesn't matter how much I have it, I never get sick of it

by Jtull 2011-01-12, 17:41

may I recommend you dont drink it on a hot day though it can have umm interesting side effects.

though you live in Canada you dont really have hot days.

by **Darkwing** 2011-01-12, 17:41

No, we only have days that reach 40 C

by Jtull 2011-01-12, 17:45

40 degrees C your kidding me?! but that is insanely hot. I cant cope with 32C

by **Darkwing** 2011-01-12, 17:46

Yes it is, it is very hot. It gets even hotter central Canada way from what I hear. See everyone thinks Canada's always colder. That's not true, we're one of the rare places on the planet that gets both ends of the extreme. We get really hot summers and really cold winters. And a lot of humidity, at least here in Atlantic Canada, mostly cause, well, we have the Atlantic Razz
