Title: do you guys exercise?
Post by: necro on May 06, 2006, 10:23:00 am

Me, I find that exercise is a great way to waste time when you have plenty of time to waste and I love to use those handle spring squeeze thingies.  I wonder if any of you guys have a favorite exercise to.

Nope.  I'm skinny and very clumsy, and although I do enjoy the occasional sport/exercise/frisbee game, I prefer things I'm actually good at.

 If your serious, go to a physe ward and get your head checked out  o.o.

I play football and baseball for my school, so I weight lift 4x a week for ~ 1hr.  I run 3x a week, 2x for ~15 min (sprints) and 1x for around 1hr...

I'm completly serious.  I find running extremly relaxing and a good time to let out all of my emotions.  Whenever I have a bad day, I either go out to my tennis court and slam 100 serves as hard as I can or else go run for 5-10 miles, it helps get my mind off of whatever is bothering me.  So far, I've run 5 marathons, 2 biatholons (biking and running) and a junior triathalon.

wow...I don't exercise because I don't need to.  I used to have a gym membership, but cancelled it for lack of use.

I never fully got people who "like to run".  Sorry tenniskid, but it is a forign concept to me.  I mean, I run all the time, but not because I like to, because I like to play the sport that involves running.  Anyways...I can understand the whole tennis thing though, I just got a 80lbs. punching bag for my basement to help me relieve anger ;):ninja:

I "like to run" too, so tenniskid isn't the only one.

I don't know how to lift though.  I can't seem to put on muscle w/o tons of fat too.  Any advice?

Exercise? *shudders* j/k

I just do sports that I consider fun, like badminton, tennis, table tennis and handball. Not very often, got no club membership or whatever... PE and some spontaneous phone calls to get some friends together is enough for me :)

Anyways, it would not be good for me to do serious exercises, my joints are kinda loose and my body has problems absorbing magnesium >_<
-> dislocations and local spasms after longer sessions

Runnings the best! I love doing it just to feel the breeze in your face, plus it's a very good workout! :) I do both track and Xcountry at my school! :)

I run (mostly because I play soccer) and lift weights.  I like the feel of being in shape and strong.

 if you notice additional fat, ignore it...at least initialy.  Larger muscles will swing the scale the other way as they require more calories (iow; you burn more fat after you get bigger muscles) and also, try protien rich fat low foods like soy nuts or cashews and avoid red meats.

Post by: BCTurk on May 08, 2006, 12:51:00 am

Yeah, what necro said.  Oh and try (if you can) to eat large amounts of protien right after lifting, and drink lots of fluids.

...I should get in shape. :P I'm not fat or anything, I just got wimpy muscles. :( I do archery I suppose, but that's not really excercising. Maybe I should go learn to be a ninja. :ninja:

I would do track and XCountry if I didn't do soccer and tennis.  I have 4 records for track at my middle school and I'd prob. slaughter all the ones at our high school, except that I'm a state ranked tennis player and will prob. get a college scholarship playing tennis so I do that instead.

Well I work out during the school time, and atm I should be working out or running but I am just lazy I guess XD. I will try to get back to running hopefully and lifting weights again!

exercise is always good for later, because I often see ppl at only 50 years old who arent even able to move or walk becaus ethey didnt keep themselves in good health during their life. some ppl are in good shape even at 80

I'd be content if my life span was 30 years lol... I just take life as it comes, who cares about getting old? Someday we all die, unless you count transferring your brain impulse algorithms into a comp "living"
