    Is this dumb? Why can’t I enjoy my free gym options? Just get the expensive membership?

    @jay1969 Are you mainly planning to use the treadmill, bike, and dumbbells? Does every gym you have mentioned have everything you need for the workout you want to do? If so, I think the apartment gym sounds like the best deal. I get not wanting to use the work gym, as I really appreciate getting...

    Was it dangerous to bail out of my squat with my hair like this? (See image)

    @johnmarsten He was desperate to find something to critique. He saw a woman in public and he needed to tell you how to do something RIGHT NOW. So he just made up some nonsense.

    I hate to say it…all of the pull-up advice on this sub is 100% correct

    @ashleye23 What pull up bar did you buy? Is it somehow free-standing, or did you mount it into the studs?

    How do you make exercise not about weight loss?

    What are your non scale goals for July/august?

    @swissbts22 The Pacific is cold enough that if I ever get into ocean swimming year-round, I will need a wet-suit. Coming from New England, I was shocked by how cold the ocean is off Southern California, but I guess we get currents from Alaska. For now, I just stick to summer and my bathing suit...

    Why am I so bad at running, but do well in other cardio related activities?

    @kmar123 I never was able to run until my late twenties, when I got cross country shoes and some of those Vibram 5 finger shoes. The generic cross-training athletic shoes I had always used in gym class made me strike my feet in a weird way that always hurt my knees. Light, thin-soled shoes...

    Alternatives to 500 pound club?

    @crazythat He’s a mean boy being mean because he feels threatened. It’s hard to really internalize this message when you are a teen, but his words have nothing to do with you, and everything to do with his insecurities.
