Trying to get in better shape
post #1

What do you all do? I want to find something and stick with it. Lose a bit of fat and replace it with muscle. I have been eating better lately and it is showing in the form of weight loss. Not I need to start working out.

Do you enjoy any sports? I used to play basketball with friends every week and it really got me in good shape. I had fun doing it too.

I just run on a treadmill or hike with my dog. Nothing fancy. If you want to bulk up though, you need more than just cardio.

I like to lift a few times a week just to stay where I am at. I do roofing work though so I don't really need to push myself to stay in or get in shape.

I find that biking up hill does it for me. I go with friends and it makes it less about working out and more about just hanging out. You can even go on a hike with some friends up hill. Trust me, working out is no fun alone.

Thanks for all your replies fellas. I decided to actually join my buddy's brother's gym. It is only for men and most men are on the shorter side from what I have seen. No Randy Ortons at this place which is a huge relief. I will see how it goes. I have to make a point to keep going. I have only went 5 times so far. I want to make it a Monday-Friday thing.

Tall guy loses it when fellow tall man says he'd rather be short and in shape

This is why I've always figured that studies like this one which claim that being shorter makes people more paranoid is because guys like this can't fathom being anything but tall.

Doubt she has any short men trying to talk to her, let alone tall men.

She had a much better time dating because she chose shorter men.. but..

https://inews.co.uk/opinion/women-forgive-men-for-anything-except-being-short-3739154

The amount of apologizing and pleading to her readers to assure them that her claims are not some sort of alliance with short men, nor some conspiracy to get women to "lower their standards" and admission to being engaged to a 6'3 will just make you say...

Go figure...
