Exercising

CharlieDog · Birthday Boy

Ahh, I knew it. My sport poll has spurred him on.

WinstonShnozwick · Feb 5, 2010

ummmmm no.

I just realized that if I dont do something now when I am still growing and healthy, then when I get older, I wont be able to save myself, and I might be a flabby slob. I dont want that.

THYMOLE · moleelom

That's good

but since youre a dude you shouldn't try and actually lift heavy things, because you can stunt your growth/cause joint problems early on.

Lighter but longer reps will be much better

you should mostly do ab stuff

WinstonShnozwick · Feb 6, 2010

Yeah, I know. I will at first just get a low level of wieghts, like 30-50 pounds, and do it alot, then after a while of it Ill raise it a bit. And I started doing 50 pushups and 50 situps every night before going to bed, I started this two days ago, and I already see the outline of my ab muscles in my stomach.

CharlieDog · Birthday Boy

Two days...

I somehow don't believe you can do that in two days. But anyways good luck.

THYMOLE · moleelom

It's probable

right after any stuff like crunches or so you actually will look jacked

Fluttershy · Lead Map Designer

I always looked Jacked :p

WinstonShnozwick · Feb 7, 2010

You look, like jack to me. But yeah, I am definately getting abdominal muscles now. I did more than 50 last night. But I figured out if you put your hands and arms behind your head it gives a better excersise, cause more wieght, instead of putting your arms in front of you on your chest.

THYMOLE · moleelom

If you want crunches to work, you can't do em like they want at school.

Do a full situp and then go only 1/2 way down.

Then try and go up and down slowly without ever going past the 1/2 mark. Just holding the half way mark with your legs an inch up is really good too

It's much better and much harder

hands behind your might add some weight, but more importantly it will open up your lungs.

WinstonShnozwick · Feb 7, 2010

Yeah, in gym at school, they dont do it right at all. The way people do pushups is horrendous. Me, I only support myself by my arms, and my body is completely strait, and I touch my nose to the floor and go all the way back up.

THYMOLE · moleelom

Oh ya and for pushups make sure that you elbows point downwards.

It feels really strange to do it that way but you're less likely to hurt yourself.

WinstonShnozwick · Feb 7, 2010

Hmm? I dont understand that one?

THYMOLE · moleelom

It's weird...

But try and get you elbow to point to your feet and more or less stay under your body as opposed to having them stick out to the sides like most people do.

WinstonShnozwick · Feb 7, 2010

Oh i understand now. That does sound weird.

Necr0maNceR · Lord of the Undead

Yay for fitness!

I think I will take this opportunity to get back into shape as well.

CharlieDog · Birthday Boy

I always am in shape. :P All my fat goes to my height.

somerandomdude · Druid

Same here

WinstonShnozwick · Feb 8, 2010

you two are tall? Im 16 years old, and im like 5 feet and 3-5 inches tall. So maybe I might seem a bit short.

THYMOLE · moleelom

Heh I'm taller than Winston

WinstonShnozwick · Feb 9, 2010

what!! well how tall and whats your age. If you are younger tahn me, ill be a bit anger

THYMOLE · moleelom

5 11ish

And 16 years

WinstonShnozwick · Feb 9, 2010

well maybe i was wrong, thats from my guess to what i was last time i measured. Maybe im taller. (hopeful expression?)

CharlieDog · Birthday Boy

14 years, 6'3. Take that!

Fluttershy · Lead Map Designer

15 and 178cm. So, I am above average. That is roughly, 5' 10".

Charlie, you are massive and need your legs cut off. Just to make sure that you don't hit your head on the roof.

CharlieDog · Birthday Boy

Probably :P

Necr0maNceR · Lord of the Undead

I'm eighteen and 5 feet ten and a half inches tall.

THYMOLE · moleelom

I'm taller than jack, necro, and Winston :D

WRP_Beater · Mathematic Mod

I'm 1.75 mt, so (I used a convertor) 5' 8879999999999988''

WinstonShnozwick · Feb 9, 2010

wow, so the only girl here is bigger than us

somerandomdude · Druid

13yrs and 175cm or something

WinstonShnozwick · Feb 13, 2010

I might be closer to 6 feet tall. Maybe about 5 8 or something like that, I havent measured. Oh and also I finally discovered how to fold a hankercheif into one of those head things, like a pirate. Its snowing like hell over here where I am.

CharlieDog · Birthday Boy

That's interesting, I'd love to figure out how to fold a handkerchief like a pirate's hat. :P

THYMOLE · moleelom

I can make an oragami dragon that flaps it's wings when you pull the tail

and a pig

somerandomdude · Druid

I can make a plane!

WinstonShnozwick · Feb 14, 2010

I guess its called a skull cap. But I learned that you dont fold it diagonally in half and make it from there, you use the whole thijng unfolded in the center of the top of your head and then fold the remaining back under. Mine is pretty sweet, on a tan camoflauge hankey.

somerandomdude · Druid

Why dont u try this little workout then winston???

WRP_Beater · Mathematic Mod

Don't bump.

somerandomdude · Druid

BUMP

Cmon now u just gotta love that ^^^^ I cant watch the whole thing without cracking up laughing and its kinda awkward while my families all watching a murder show, its like someones getting stabbed in the throat meanwhile im laughing my head off, they might be getting worried about me becomeing a serial killer :/

THYMOLE · moleelom

WinstonShnozwick · Jul 21, 2010

Thy · A witch!

Only when I'm around

otherwise that would be his height

WRP_Beater · Mathematic Mod

lol

Like Charlie's dog who played dead when a dog half his size barked at him.

Yes, Charlie, I remember it.

BurGerSs · Nomad

Hahaha

Anywayyys i dont use machines, weights anything like that, i just do a lot of walking, a lot of running, jumping skateboarding and every day when i get home from college i have a massive hill to go up so i try and sprint up it every day.

All this keeps me really fit and even though i toke im still one of the fastest people i know in a sprint and im like, incredibly strong for the way i look.
I think all thats much better and more natural than some greasy sweaty gym where everyone around you is a bulging mass of muscle with a brain the size of a, well.... Mussel.

WRP_Beater · Mathematic Mod

In Italian we say "Cervello di gallina" (Chicken brain).

Thy · A witch!

Gyms are fine. I go every now and then.

WinstonShnozwick · Jul 21, 2010

Continuing on my original thought of excercizing. I stopped with the 100 pushups and situps each night when I got my computer back :p, but I still do every now and then if Im bored or something.

But yeah, I would definatly go work out at the YMCA in town, only problem is I dont know what to do, like I know my machines for working out, but I wouldnt know how to start, the awkwardness.

Thy · A witch!

Eh, just go down the line of machines or something. I know what I gotta do but if you aren't an athelete just work what ya wanna buff

HailToTheOboe · Settler

I do lots of biking (my work is 15km each way plus any other places I go) and road hockey for general fitness.
I've also got myself a bit of a morning workout routine I do with free weights (and some stuff without weights, like plank and pushups) and I try to do it almost every day, but miss a few days here and there.

I've only been to the gym a few times.

WinstonShnozwick · Jul 22, 2010

I cant stand running, really tire out fast from that, cardiovascular activities. I'd work on the legs and arms though, I was pretty good at that.
