Are there any parks within walking/jogging distance of you? You could potentially bond with fellow park-goers.

Seraph · « **Reply #51 on:** September 29, 2008, 02:00:52 am »

no nearby parks that I'm aware of. I'm thinking of doing some push ups and stuff in the mornings but I'm so meh in mornings. main problem really is I lack movitation.

oslapedo · « **Reply #52 on:** September 29, 2008, 02:51:10 am »

That's my problem too. I'm not morbidly obese so I don't see much reason to excercise most of the time. Once you start though working out feels really good : D

nikkiolie · « **Reply #53 on:** September 29, 2008, 07:17:51 am »

that is one nice thing about collage....free gym (well you pay for it in fees) but I am heading there after my last class today to get a good workout in ^_^

EveofAbyss · « **Reply #54 on:** September 29, 2008, 07:31:53 am »

With my new schedule, I am gonna have a hard time finding time to work out. I need to stick with it, but I have no clue when I'll be able to.

nikkiolie · « **Reply #55 on:** September 29, 2008, 07:35:30 am »

what is your schedule like? I get done at 3:30 two days and at 2:30 the other two days so I have time ^_^

ThiefKingsHier · « **Reply #56 on:** September 29, 2008, 08:33:01 am »

I'm not a fan of gym's.
Working out for the sake of working out seems like kind of a waste. I mean.. I'd rather be working out while doing other things ( if that makes any sense).
That is why I really like living in dowtown Seattle. Doing anything requires at least a bit of a walk.

It's be really nice if my apartment had a pool. I guess they dont have room..or..are too cheap.

nikkiolie · « **Reply #57 on:** September 29, 2008, 11:57:31 am »

Well me and a friend will weight train three days a week. I have soccer two days and one day we will play tennis so we are working out while playing sports but I hardly consider lifting weights working out because it seems so easy ^_^ (you don't get winded easily....unless you are maxing >_>)

KinkyFriedChicken · « **Reply #58 on:** September 29, 2008, 03:40:35 pm »

I Do Yoga In The Mornings But Thats Different ~_~ (6am wake up for yoga) On PBS Or Something Like That >w> They Have Exersize Progams On Tv You Could Try All Of That =3

oslapedo · « **Reply #59 on:** September 29, 2008, 04:14:42 pm »

I ended up not going to the Y today since I was too tired, but I'll for sure go tomorrow. Woot working out!

nikkiolie · « **Reply #60 on:** September 29, 2008, 04:20:50 pm »

we just got back from the gym and I can harldy move my arms enough to type this.....but it was worth it ^_^

Raiphin · « **Reply #61 on:** September 29, 2008, 07:23:48 pm »

I used my stationary bike! (You buy one of these when you're A: lazy and B:sprained your leg a while back and C: live in the rain) I try to watch an episode of anime as my length of time (currently on Slayers NEXT) to keep me distracted.

Then I had a dinner of chicken breast and veggies. And an orange. It was LAME. but the orange was tasty.

...when not whining I feel fairly accomplished about all this. ~_~;;

nikkiolie · « **Reply #62 on:** September 29, 2008, 09:54:53 pm »

yeah I have also been eating healthy so that should help ^_^

but I think I may be getting sick v.v

nikkiolie · « **Reply #64 on:** September 29, 2008, 10:32:56 pm »

I am hoping it is just from over working my body and staying up late last week and nothing serious but I'll know more tomorrow ^_^

lychee-twist · « **Reply #65 on:** September 29, 2008, 10:58:17 pm »

Best of luck! I should shape up myself. There's this absolutely intense work out video on YouTube called "Quick weight loss workout to help YOU Lose 15 pounds fast". It sounds like a scam, but, man, this workout is so tough. I actually believe that if you follow this guy's routine, you will lose the 15 lbs and seriously tone up if you continue it past that.

Here's the video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k8AMC2HssMw

Hurray for Kumoricon Health Support Threads!

BigGuy · « **Reply #66 on:** September 30, 2008, 03:53:34 pm »

Can't remember if it's been said before but multivitamins are a really good idea to add if your working out a bunch. They'll add stuff to help your body recover faster.

oslapedo · « **Reply #67 on:** September 30, 2008, 03:56:04 pm »

I've actually been meaning to start taking vitamins. Is there anything you would recomend?

sometimes I make soda runs to 7 elevens. its about 15 minute walk to there.

That's what I used to do when I lived with grandparents in 'not -damned-thing-to-do' town.

The problem is that the sugar in the soda pretty much negates what little exercise you get from the walk.
I know how you feel though, I don't like to go for a walk with no destination.

As far as getting in shape; you know what really haelped me?
Not having two dead kidneys. I tell ya, getting a working made one hell fo a difference.
So there ya go! Drink a ton of soda till you distroy your kdineys and then get a new one! You'll feel MUCH better by comparison!

Dislcaimer: Joudanjou..honto, bakani janaiyo. ( I just got out of Japense class..it's addictive.)

As far as sports go, I really enjoy physical activity but none and I mean NONE of my friendss do. It's diffcult to play sports by yourself, I've tried.

I play the Bleach Wii game a lot, ( lame ass friends wont even do THAT!) if you play it long enough it will give your arms a work out.

reppy · « **Reply #69 on:** October 01, 2008, 11:41:06 am »

omg I'm so sore -_-; Yesterday I did dead lifts, seated calf raises and planks. Ugh. Pain. And I have to goto work in a few hours. Puu.

nikkiolie · « **Reply #70 on:** October 01, 2008, 01:02:32 pm »

yeah I played soccer today and in about two or three hours we are going to go lift more weights. I was really sore after the first time (Monday). I did leg presses, abs, biceps curls, lower back (like reverse crunch), triceps dips.....I think that was about it...I will try to do a little more today but who know what will happen.

EveofAbyss · « **Reply #71 on:** October 01, 2008, 03:20:24 pm »

My school schedule.....it is awful. I have only two days a week that I will be able to work out now.

Gah....why do I do this to myself?

I Future Trunks I · « **Reply #72 on:** October 01, 2008, 03:38:17 pm »

I am in a Weight Training class in my High school at the moment. so i guess im set untill the next half of the year untill K-con comes back.

Raiphin · « **Reply #73 on:** October 01, 2008, 07:11:42 pm »

You people in school have it easy!

Try coming home from work after an hour commute, and THEN making yourself exercise!

I tried doing stairs at work (I route interoffice mail 3 times an hour) and I didn't think that 2 flights of stairs 3 times an hour would make me......utterly exhausted? O_< But I seem to be getting over that now. (Even though nothing says classy like walking by clients while trying not to gasp up a lung!)

nikkiolie · « **Reply #74 on:** October 01, 2008, 07:17:21 pm »

did you ever think about working out BEFORE you went to work? It would give you energy to get through the day ^_^

Yes, and if I didn't get up at 6am already that would seem a lot more attractive. ^ - ~ I am NOT a morning person. 6pm is a lame time to work out, but it's better than 6am!

tofutakeout · « **Reply #76 on:** October 01, 2008, 07:42:11 pm »

well then, I should have posted in here a while ago, even though I'm not going to sakuracon.

I am however trying to lose weight for Kumoricon '09. I know I've got tons of time but It's kind of hard for me to lose weight. I have a horrible addiction to sweets(but don't we all? XD) I also want to gain some muscle since I'm a bit weak in the arms and squishy in the thighs. heh so I'm trying to do as much as I can like cut down on some foods, walk more, and try to exercise in various ways.

Seraph · « **Reply #77 on:** October 01, 2008, 07:43:37 pm »

@Raiphin
what if you has to travel home on the bus and take took 3 hours?

Raiphin · « **Reply #78 on:** October 02, 2008, 06:43:57 am »

err, you mean if my commute was 3 hours? one way? I'd get some weekend exercise lookin' for a closer place to live! ^ - ^

My glutes are aching. In fact, my whole body is. *pout*

You could come swing dancing with me, that's cardio

Syd-chan · « **Reply #82 on:** October 04, 2008, 01:38:14 pm »

XD I should join the bandwagon. Mostly because I know I'll be diagnosed with something later on in life that will make me have to lose weight or die....Or something like that.

nikkiolie · « **Reply #83 on:** October 04, 2008, 04:20:27 pm »

alright I did a lot of ab stuff yesterday and today (after about a year or two) my stomach is kinda sore XD

I did like 200 crunches with weights.....100 with 50 lbs and 100 with 30 lbs and 100 obliques (no weights)

So if I bump it up a little more I really should feel it XD

Raiphin · « **Reply #84 on:** October 04, 2008, 10:10:46 pm »

my apartment complex revamped its workout room, and now has an elliptical! I think I'm excited about this, but I've never used one.

also, all the running etc. machines face a window which SOUNDS good until you realize that outside that window is a pond....and after that pond (about 30 feet away) is people's apartments.

That sounds harsh. My favorite way to work out is dancing to techno. You could always try that.
