So, who here works out?

I'm trying to following New Years Eve when people kept hugging me and i was embarrassed by the squishy person they found themselves squeezing. Here's the deal though; if you work out, what are your routines?

I do 100 press ups, in various sets, 20 curls with heavy bells and 15 tricep dips, every other day. In th days in between i do a 10 minute ab workout (video on YouTube) and i run for about 20 minutes.

But it doesn't really feel like enough to me. It seems like my 'workout' is always over and done with in the space of half an hour, whereas my buddies go the gym for like two and a half hours. I wonder what the hell they could do for that long, beause by the end of my 100 press ups my arms are pretty beat.

How about you, OT?

Ninja-Hippo

You can do 100 press ups but only 15 tricep dips??! something is definitely wrong here. Also, you should try to run/jog for atleast 45 mins, daily.

i run 3 times a week

play basketball 1-2 times a week

weights 2 times a week

works for me. no gym required. ghetto workouts ftw

My campus gym is closed for the break, so I've been playing ddr for about 45 minutes a day to at least stay active until the gym reopens.

I hate running in the cold.

I'm certainly not a body-builder or an Olympic Athlete in terms of conditioning. I do between 120 and 140 push-ups and 240 to 260 sit-ups per day, 6 days a week. I like to keep at least my core and chest/shoulders/triceps in shape.

Yep . i compete in powerlifting and am trying to switch over to a strongman style training raiden509

I go tothe gym 3-4 times a week. Hoping to start jogging again this coming spring.

Yeah I go to the gym three times a week, but it's just to stay in shape

Well there are other proffesional football leagues like the Arena football league, indoor football league, USFL,CFL, ETC. And you get paid enough in those leagues to make a living.-Big_Red-

[QUOTE="rawsavon"][QUOTE="-Big_Red-"] Noooooooo..... Teams need good o/d linemen. And, being that there aren't too many people with the desired build to play those positions they are in demand. And there are more possible jobs with someone of that build. Like as was said before professional strongman. You can also be a bouncer, or someones bodyguard. -Big_Red-

[QUOTE="-Big_Red-"][QUOTE="rawsavon"] You basically skipped the most important part of my post...oh well. Another day perhapsrawsavon

[QUOTE="rawsavon"][QUOTE="-Big_Red-"] You were/are acting like you are my psychiatrist or something.-Big_Red-

[QUOTE="-Big_Red-"][QUOTE="rawsavon"] I would have to charge you for that.rawsavon

Well raw, pretty much the only thing that you've said so far that I didn't really catch on to is this: "It seems like you go towards threads that fit 'you' and post only from that angle.

What did you mean by that?

I do weight training on Mon, Wed and Fri. Then I have taekwondo and kickboxing on Tues and Thurs.

[QUOTE="rawsavon"][QUOTE="-Big_Red-"] Wasn't/isn't worth the money IMO. You don't provide much closure to your statements, and you leave me wondering about certain things that you say.-Big_Red-

Most/many of your posts that I have seen go something like this:
-thread about height...'why is short not okay' 'why do girls lie tall better'
-thread about girls...'why do they only like_____ [that is not me]'
-make thread about relationship with mom (relationship that was biggest influence on current relationships [or a lack thereof] with girls)
-post in threads giving benefits of current body frame
-post in threads giving benefits of similar body frames

Your posts follow a very specific pattern (a few psychological defense mechanisms at play).

My mistake is in thinking these things are understood…that people see these things as I do. I apologize

[QUOTE="rawsavon"][QUOTE="raiden509"] Ahh guys i just compete in powerlifting for fun, and there's no real set build .there's 120 lbs chicks who compete like Kara bohiga

1. All I was doing was asking a woman as to why she likes tall men. Because Ijust don't know whywomen, and people in general prefer tall men/people.She gave a somewhat clear answer.

2. Don't really remember doing that.

3. I did not make a thread aboutmy relationship with my mother. All I was doing was asking if OT thinks that someones relationship with the opposite sex is more important. And I don't really have a relationship with anyone at the moment, I hate the spot that I'm in right now, and I hate everybody around me, i'm just trying to get out of it.

4. There are benefits of any body frame.

5. Look above.

I understand what is going on and what you are feeling.
At this point, it seems that you understand your feelings but not what is going on with your actions.
That is usually the biggest hurdle one has to overcome though.

I just do push up and sit up exercises which take me a total of 20 minutes every day. Incidentally nothing much has happened apart from the fact that I couldn't do any of them a couple months ago and can now do all the sets for the sit up exercise and over half of the push up exercise.
