Exercise

[Twed]

You'll be there won't you, turning your legs or shaking your arms or having your legs runned out. Blood pumping, adrenaline flowing and then hearing KT Tunstall "Suddenly I See" on the radio and really getting into it, like you're a regular person who actually likes things.


Bollocks.

Tried some once, felt dreadful afterwards. Can't be healthy.

[Voltan (Man of Steel)]

Going to train shortly in my luxuriously appointed home gym (garage). I'll post pics to premium subscribers.

[Sebastian Cobb]

Can't get my head round excersise for no reason. I cycle and walk places instead of getting public transport or driving, why don't people incorporate exercise in their daily lives?

Like Stallone in Over the Top.

In summer I guess it's too hot to be doing that en route to work or social events etc. Also people exercise to achieve specific things, muscle gain for example which can more easily be attained in a gym than by wrenching bollards out of the ground on your way to the clap clinic.

[Buelligan]

I don't go to the gym, no time, no money, no gym.  I exercise from morning to night by work and getting myself there, I'm firm as an eel and shocking strong for such a skinny one. 

I used to love some of the machines they have though, I have tried them, the rowing one, with the water you can force to spin quicker and quicker until the water cannot bear it and the one you can press to make the imaginary hill you're running up steeper until it pops your heart, the one for skiing on all your limbs and the goal free all terrain bicycle.  I'd do it again if I was trapped but I prefer the mountain.

There's beauty in the simplicity of a kettlebell. Cardio and strength in one thrifty lump of iron.

I was in serious danger of enjoying the Clock version of Oh What A Night in the swing of things today, but I'm not that far gone yet.

At least sustained exercise is I'd say better as a lifestyle choice, more likely people will stick with it.

I'v gone the middle class Stallone route recently for harder/shorter work using two large bags of cat litter as weights.

[Dr Trouser]

Just been for a run. Was alright. Bit hungry now though.

[ToneLa]

I've walked four miles this morning already. I've seen a horse and a robin!

[poo]

Hilly 70k on the bike this morning. Probably drink like fuck for the rest of the day.

[Voltan (Man of Steel)]

Squats and bench presses last night followed shortly afterwards by five cans of Holsten Pils and chicken curry. The bench presses appear to have made me mildly flatulent this morning.

[Dex Sawash]

, the rowing one, with the water you can force to spin quicker and quicker until the water cannot bear it and

My water cannot bear it, makes me have to go for a wee.

I tried taking up exercise. i bought a headband, a loose-fitting vest and one of those stretchy spring things. my chest hair got trapped in the spring thing so I threw it all in the bin. keep-fit? looks like i'll be keeping FAT!

haha *applause*

[Voltan (Man of Steel)]

Me, going for the burn last night. No pain, no gain.

Decent work with a goblin and Haynes manual mid-up your tract

Doesn't count unless you lifted them.

[Buelligan]

Do you even?

[Claude the Racecar Driving Rockstar Super Sleuth]

No. I'm odd.

[Buelligan]

At least you're not Motherwell train station.

My friend had one of those things with pads that you stick to your stomach while you watch TV and it gives you little electric shocks until you get the six pack all ladies love.  Suppos d to use it for 10 mins at a time, had it on all through El Cid. Tummy hurt the next day but still flabby. Waste of fucking time.

[flotemysost]

I think this is a city malaise: I'm slim and reasonably fit but for some reason the topic of exercise makes me feel horribly insecure - specifically, seeing everyone smugly Instagramming their glistening beetroot mugs ('Another amazing vinyasa sesh #nopainnogain') before, inevitably, a meal they've thus 'earned' ('Can't wait for this #postworkout #burger #getinmabelly') or similar bollocks.

Despite evidence that it's actually better for you to incorporate bits of gentle excercise throughout the day than to save it all up for one burst (and be a sedentary deskbound slug for the rest of it), I often feel inferior to these Gym People.

I did get referred to a free month of Class Pass recently so I've been going to some things, the last one I genuinely thought was going to kill me but the instructor (a 40-something bloke) had one of those amazing gravity-defying arses, so maybe there's something in it.

I think the Peloton Bike is about to be pushed hard in the UK. Please enjoy a world where "smart bike" is a thing.

(The technocracy of it aside, I think it's actually an OK idea if you've got spare money)

[Twed]

I may as well own up to the fact that this entire thread is a big ruse to cover up my shame for buying a Peloton.

[a duncandisorderly]

axle-stand for the bike at home. won't cycle outside in london. bad knees anyway, after years of OBs & recording sessions.
GP once asked me if I exercised. "not deliberately", I said.

The ads strongly hint that Peloton comes with a screen for the purpose of putting networked boobs in the face. Does it provide boobs in the face?

[Twed]

Hmm. Arses, man bottoms, lady wabs, shonglies and curmutches.
