I always laugh when I see people in a gym.
Please re-read the wording of that sentence carefully. Actually, let me be even more concise since they aren’t any visual attached to this journal entry.
I always laugh when I see people in a gym doing nothing.
What’s the point of going? Why did they spend good money on a membership? They could’ve stayed at home for free for all the benefit it’s going to have.
Anyway, I’m ranting…
Recently I had someone ask me for a sample of my typical routine. I don’t believe in working out for hours at a time. If you’re NOT punishing yourself quickly and severely, you’re being inefficient.

Reminds me of CrossFit.
Nice run the other day, quite motivating. 🙂
CrossFit, HIIT, Tabata, it’s all good if it benefits you. And thanks about the run! Tomorrow I climb the CN Tower!
Haha ; “You’re done! Go pass out.” XD
What do you mean by “outer bicep curl”? Out to the side?
What do you mean by “bicycles”? Bicycle crunches?
Outer bicep curl means start in regular bicep curl position, but instead of a straight up/down movement, you’re curling about 45 degrees outwards to really work the outer head of the bicep.

Bicycles refers to bicycle crunches, yes.
