A Tombstone

[Ethel mermania]

Sure they look good but that's it, and you wanna know what looks better? Going up a few pounds on the bench. That *feels* better, man.

I think we're different people when it comes to working out then. I dont care about functionality, Im more about aesthetics. Natural aesthetics ofc. Maybe when Im a more mature adult then Ill realize functionality is more important than aesthetics but right now Im too horny to give a shit.

I exercise because I dont want to die. The better physical shape you are in, the longer you last.

I've lost almost 50lbs this past year with minimal exercise. Here I thought dieting was the hard part.

Dieting is hard for me but thats prob Im an ecto-meso so I always want to gain healthy weight

i just cut down from a fuck ton of food to 2 meals and a snack. when i get a long term job it will be 3 meals and maybe like a measly morsel snack.
The first week is murder. The hunger pains are brutal. I need to get down to about 215 before im happy. Too bad there's no gym nearby because its too fuckin hot to exercise in florida.

I miss boxing. Best exercise in the world but it kills your gut and forearms.

I spar boxing/grappling with my irl friendship group only cos peer pressure. I dont like getting hit on the face But i gotta be a man

It ain't about being a man. Throw that helmet on, use amateur gloves and dont let your neck get flung around. Unless your friends are assholes who target the nose you have no risk of injury aside from light swelling and bruises. I trained my torso's blunt tolerance and turtled my head. They wasted a lot of energy on that and with my deadly overhand hook i could knock a heavyweight out.

Same here. Although I was never ''fat''.

fitness is how sustainably a species co-exists with others in its environment. has nothing to do with all this mussle bound charles atlas crap.

health is the sustainability of your internal ecosystem. has nothing to do with aesthetic perceptions of your peers.

you want health? eat diversely, avoid overdoing anything that overdoing has proven statistically carcenogenic.
(of course unfortunately that's kind of almost everything, but that's why diversity, so you can avoid over doing any one thing)

and you don't need a gym or to work up a sweat, just walk to the bus stop, or better yet, all the way to the store or to work, if either are close enough it won't take half your day to do so, instead of parking your ass in a car every time you need or choose to leave the house.
(if its relatively level land between them, consider getting bike and riding it)

Damn right. It's about fucking people up....I was a wee bit problematic in my youth....and early adult years.

I topped out at about 290 but i didn't look 80+lbs over weight. More like 40. Still have to drop the last 30-35lbs and get rid of this abomination of a double chin. If i had the motivation to do training I'd go for power lifter. Screw body building.

How do you people achieve 6-pack? Do you exclusively eat eggs and tomatoes or something? I can't do it.

I ate more meat than I ever did in my life, also Stomach crunches, rucksacking, weight lifting.

Just got harassed by 2 pitbulls while walking home. Wouldnt really say they attacked me because I hit at them before they could touch me. Was about to just run away, obv, but they are faster cunts than me even though I consider myself fast for a human. So I just stood my ground and attacked them back until they ran away. No one that saw it happen gave shit. This is the ozzie life.

....The fuck? I've had aggressive dogs come near me, but I've never had to like, well, attack back? Jesus mate.

And? Some people have been attacked by dogs until they shot them, what’s your point?

Point is that’s terrifying, I’d never want to go head to head with some pit bulls.

Ride horses? I prefer anthro ponies

Anthro Ponies are cool, kinda like spanc more tho.

Yeah my mistake, read your post in a different context.

Haven't been able to go the gym recently so I've substituted the archetypal iron for stuff like my heavy schoolbag, calisthenics, lifting the washing powder carton, etc.

Is there anyone else who uses unconventional weights? It might look silly but your body doesn't discriminate

Sometimes I will load a backpack when hiking. Taking much more water than needed, for example

Hiking is deceptively strenuous. And dangerous. When I was hiking in the mountains for my senior PE camp, I slipped off a cliff cos I was doing something stupid and almost killed myself if it wasn't for last minute grabbing a protruding tree branch.

But if I have the chance, I'll def go hiking again. Too bad I live in an urban area.

I am in nyc, within30 miles outside the city are some lovely mountain trails.

Still better than the opposite, not bringing enough water.

What constitutes an unconventional weight?

I wouldn't go anywhere near pitbulls. My neighbor has a half breed that probably weighs more than I do. One day, his son took her for a walk and she attacked and mauled a smaller dog like it was nothing. Went right for the neck and stayed there. You are lucky they didn't attack you. Fitness doesn't play a role, a pitbull should be able to outrun you.
