I windsurf most weekends and then tennis on Tuesday nights, both seem far more enjoyable, social and less need to admire oneself in mirrors than pounding the gym.
Having said that I accept I live somewhere I can get out and windsurf and play tennis for very little cost. This weekend a turtle swam directly under my board, I think that's part of why I prefer exercise that is actually outdoors.

Sea Turtles are awesome…

It was as I was coming in so it was right under my board in clear water near the beach, highlight of my weekend. However my general point is if you want to run, go run outside..
..beyond that there are certain sports that lend themselves to community, windsurfing and diving are similar in that regard. Some of the best moments haven't even been out in the water, rather just rigging your sail with a bunch of people lending advice and tips and ribbing each other about each other's advice.
Thing is I find the idea of gyms just.. bleugh..

Besides the gym, I tend to go swimming as I have a pool and I also am a player in a competitive football team which definitely helps. I enjoy the outdoors too but the pump you get from free weights feel really really goodKowani wrote:See, I run track and cross-country, so I’m pretty physically fit.
Whats your times?

But i'm finally going back to swimming this week hopefully, and swimming is pretty cool, so that's also cool.
Nothing wrong with any body shape, healthy and appearance are 2 different things imo. Ive personally never experienced drastic weight changes so cant comment on that.
Swimming however is without a doubt cool. Literally cool. I live in a generally hot place so getting wet is a refreshing feeling. Lap swimming is really good for cardiovascular training and its so easy that I dont know if Im exercising or having fun.

I don't consider the current place i'm living in as "hot" because the other 2 countries I used to live in were without a doubt hotter, so i'm used to hot environments. Swimming is awesome, you just feel so energetic and feel that you're doing progress with your body. It exercises most parts of the body, so that's a plus for sure.

That's another advantage of windsurfing, anytime it's too hot I just drop into the water - and if I'm tired I can just sit on the board out in the bay and rest.
Tennis is different, especially on clay courts.. given the humidity it's really like doing a marathon in a sauna.

I keep or at least try to keep sunscreen with me when I head out with the knowledge that I'll be spending a prolonged period of time in the sun.

If you're male, the best way I know of is to quit masturbating. From experience, I know a heavy habit causes hair loss to some extent. Usually your hair thins first, as opposed to any noticeable loss. If you're bald like George Costanza, it might be more fashionable to go completely bald as opposed to leaving the sides intact.
