Whats the verdict on situps? Is it bad for your back or not? I can crack out about 30 of those.

 

[LookAtMeGo]

im not a fan.

Personally hang from a bar where you can extend your body straight down without touching the floor, and lift your legs to a 90 degree angle infront of you.

haha I played a bit of Lego with my little cousin who came over too though, so actually not that different!

as someone who works for at a LEGO Store, i like you


go get some Mixels

 

[liliththepale]

I just do crunches. My workout game is weak.

How fun is that? I love being in LEGO environments (including LEGO Land in San Diego), but I wonder if it becomes a chore when it's your job.

 

[Fluvian]

I shall start tomorrow. I might even start walking part of the way to work, rather than use the bus.

Try cutting out carbs, that's my to lose weight diet. It's hard but it get's easy after a week and fat kinda just melts off

Squats and deads are enough ab work for me.

 

[RobotNinjaHornets]

Oh man got out of the shower just in time

I could move to England and hang out at the Calvinball coffeeshop while you work out, that's all I got.

I appreciate the offer but that is a good 300 miles away from where I am >_>

Start with incline pushups.

Yeah I tried this for a bit, should probably try again at some point

EDIT: FUCK I spent too long typing :C

 

[LookAtMeGo]

Doing shadow boxing with lots of body movement, footwork and proper use of your upper torso is a great way to tone up that midsection. Throw on some music and beat up an imaginary asshole. A punching bag works better.

God I hate deads and squats. I do crunches like a maniac.

they were called Shopping

haha I played a bit of Lego with my little cousin who came over too though, so actually not that different!

I horde Legos and hide them under muh floorboards

BTW Shopping ain't bad, honestly wasn't familiar with them.

I used to be "with it" then they changed what "it" was.

Man I need a punching bag. I think that'd actually be a fun workout.

Is wholemeal bread good for you?

 

[iosefe]

i'm enjoying it. it's been just over 4 months, and every shift, i have a small build made from the pieces on our Pick a Brick wall and play with that over the course of my shift.

the sweetest part is the 50% employee discount. but my supervisor lets me get sets from the Damage been, a been of unsellable/opened returned product. just brought home 2 sets.


at some point it may dredge on, but thats gonna be a while from now

That's awesome! I'm really glad you get to do that.

 

[Fluvian]

Yeah but you really shouldn't eat carbs on a weight loss diet, they stop you from losing weight quicker, even if they are brown, unless your working out a shit tonne in which case I recommend brown rice. But if you're not planning on doing much working out I would recommend a high protein lean meat, fruit and veg diet with no sugar or carbs.

 

[Vazra]

Does lifting a spoon or fork count as workout?

Lifting me works too

 

[liliththepale]

It can.

Table pushaways and fork putdowns are.

 

[Vazra]

I would be lifting you all day long babe XOXO

Interesting

Maybe a trident or a shovel......With weights tied to them.

To each their own!

Potentially

As someone who drinks way too much Dr Pepper, has primarily sandwiches for lunch and is allergic to a hell of a lot of food

This sounds hard >_>

 

[Vazra]

You rocking it bruh.

 

[iosefe]

You rocking it bruh.

might want to edit that as i changed it

these sketches are great

 

[Fluvian]

Yay liliththepale did my fake pic!

 

[HP_Wuvcraft]

I know, and it is. My first time going on that strict diet i was actually coming off an addiction/dependency to codeine, so I was more focused on that then the diet. But the second time I went on this diet, the hardest thing to give up was pasta, god damn do I love pasta.

 

[Fluvian]

My workout:

Walking 30 min 2x a day around my house and surrounding area
push-ups

Mine
Monday arm day
Tuesday Leg day
Wednesday core
thursday muay thai training
friday Jiu Jitsu
saturday rest
sunday rest
But I run at least 6 miles every day, wether on a treadmil or not depends on the weather.

 

[Vazra]

Threadmill 1 hour
stationary bike 30 minutes
2 sets of 15 push ups and 2 sets of 15 sit ups

I used to do that and sometimes I would do like 30 minutes of aerobics. But I've been lazy for months and now sick so my routine is in the pits.

Also my diet was 1500 calories per day.

 

[Silphonica]

diet is the most important and most difficult part of being healthy I feel.

you really need diversity, if you eat the same things you consider healthy everyday, it will get boring.

im retreating to an advocado, honey, brocolli, kale, carrot veg drink. Fruits and other foods can come later.

 

[Fluvian]

All this work out talk makes me want to run. Gonna go for one of my it's super late at night so i can run in the streets run. I'll probably go to bed when I get back so goodnight gaf

 

[iosefe]

i could sprint at least an average block's length

 

[A Fish Aficionado]

I used to run a lot but then I started just emotionally crashing and panic attacks right after so I stopped.

Ugh, that'll do. I can't draw anyway.

any idea why? I usually get a work out-high right after.


damn, hiccups again >.<

I have depression and anxiety issues. I should really go back on antidepressants. Need to see a doc soon.

 

[SolVanderlyn]

I do an hour of cardio six days a week, which ends up being about 28 miles on the bike or 6 miles on the treadmill. Then I do 99 crunches a night. I'm really serious about working out because, like I've said a few times, I grew up very overweight. Never want to experience that again. My arms are super skinny, though. I should lift weights, but I don't. My friend's wife called me out for "working out like a girl," whatever that means.

Speaking of moving my body, I slept ALL DAY today. I was up for over 24 hours previously, but now resetting my schedule is going to be hell.

 

[Jobbs]

I'm glad I was able to make the entire topic about working out with my post! Let's all get swole, shall we?

This is usually my experience as well, but there are days when I can't seem to get it into gear. Not sure what that's about.

I love when people other than me get hiccups.

Spoiler

Sorry

 

[The Lone Courier]

My workout is unloading boxes out of trailers for about 5 hours Monday through Friday.

my flatmate had hiccups for 3 days straight, it could happen to you.

 

[RobotNinjaHornets]

Are there any diet planning things for people who are allergic to everything? That might be useful.

 

[Jobbs]

Just to make the thread racy again, this is true -- Quite frequently when I engage in any sexual activity (solo or otherwise) I get the hiccups. It's not always -- but it seems fairly likely. Kinda odd.

 

[SRG01]

I'm thinking of getting a new fake avatar, but I dunno yet...

As for working out, I should really start exercising regularly again. I'm getting a bit

Spoiler

actually a lot

of a tummy and it looks weird because I have a slender frame.

Like Fish, I used to get post-workout anxiety crashes too. What really helped was to balance my sugar and electrolyte levels, and not to get my adrenaline too high.

you need to be more specific, allergeic to everything is impossible, list your allergens and ill see what i can do. (i do allergen management at work).

weirdly enough I don't think I've ever seen anyone my age get the hiccups. kinda calms me down to know other people still get them too.
