Boogie, there was a time when you put forth at least a little bit of effort in your posting. Now you're turning into... One of them.

Hey, I made my own post early on. That one just happened to be saying much of the same thing.

[Zomboid]

Then say that and don't be all like "THIS," mr internet.

[Guitar Woman]

This is now a meme

[Zomboid]

Not a meme; just annoying.

how much do you think it will last before cracking under the presure?

I've had it for four days now.

I'd previously said I'd want to spend at least an hour on it every day. That was silly. I'm taking it back to half an hour.

I alternate days between aerobics and strength training with yoga on each. I did strength training last night and holy shit did I ever wake up sore. A lot of the exercises also ask you to stick your arms straight out, which really wear out your shoulders. Plank kinda pisses me off. I can't lift my head to see where my center of balance is, and if I do I invariably have to shuffle my body all over. I was kinda pissed when I took the jackknife challenge and my trainer could only do ten or twenty. What the fuck? Why are you training me?

I definitely think it's no place for real exercise, but I really don't think that's the point. It's not for building mass or even endurance, just testing and toning core muscles. I certainly don't think I'm heavy enough to need extensive exercise or intense cardio, but something like this is good for keeping me honest, since I can never really find the motivation to go to the gym.

My biggest problem is I'm not seeing results yet and I'm skeptical if I will. I've only been doing it for four days, sure, but on my second day I did tons of work outside and nothing but aerobics (tons, tons of running) and on the third day I'd gained weight.

I don't know what you're expecting to see after 4 days, you psycho!

Also, that could be muscle weight. Most body-changing regimens tell you to weight yourself once a week.

[Zomboid]

Seriously man, go to a fucking gym. If you go with a buddy like 3 times a week, an hour or so each time, you'll feel and see results a fuck of a lot faster than you will by doing yoga and whatever else you're doing on that. Plus, I can pretty much guarantee that it's a lot more satisfying.

Canadian gyms must be the greatest place on earth.

I know, I have really high expectations for working out because of my abs. I can go a year and a half without exercising and as soon as I punch on fifty curls and side twists, I'm back to ROCK-HARD STATUISM.

I ate at Chipotle today and did a body test about an hour after. I had gained 5.7 pounds

Maybe you should poop before you do a body test.

This is called muscle memory, and is probably why you put on weight in the first few days.

[Sacks]

Also, are you doing it naked? Or in the same clothes? Had a lot of fruit punch? Think about these things.

[Nick]

At the Y-M-C-A!

I finally tried this out today after my family gave it a rest. The minigames are pretty fun, and I got a bit of a workout from Super Hoola Hoop. I haven't tried the actual workouts yet.
