PGD: Happy Birthday, Red!

[Reizilla]

Buying things that you kinda need is pretty duper imo

 

[Ephyon]

hmmm, which one's the best way to spend a weekend...? being spoiled and indulging in life's simple pleasures, or going to a tourney about a game I don't play anymore with loads of sweating cavemen in one big room?
hold on, let me think more about it.

 

[ToferTheHuman]

Not only that, it's filled with smelly nerds.

 

[Scatz]

loads of sweating cavemen in one big room

That is why I can't stand going to any tournaments these days. People are literally stupid when it comes to hygiene. At least spray ya smelly *** with freebreeze.

 

[~automatic]

Did Vex's house smell like wet fursuit?

EDIT: SoCal has no smelly people iirc.

 

[Phoenix Lord']

No, Vex's place did not smell.

 

[ToferTheHuman]

The nerds in there did.

 

[Ussi]

Letting strangers touch you.

Massages are awesome

 

[NinjaFoxX]

massages by strangers is awesome.

 

[~automatic]

Massages are pretty good.

 

[ViperGold42]

what is with this conversation? no on wants to ask me abotu PS4?!

 

[Luckay4Lyphe]

Who are you?

 

[NinjaFoxX]

theres a playstation 4 coming out?!

 

[Roller]

tbh, anyone who lives more than 2 states away from NY has no right to an opinion on pizza.




...Or bagels.

 

[ToferTheHuman]

Why would we ask you about PS4?

 

[Roller]

'cause it was held in MI this past weekend?

 

[Cows]

Pardon?
Buying things you don't need is a reward within itself! I absolutely loooove the feeling of buying things just because I can~ <3

Not me... Cause a couple days after I but it I realize that I just wasted money on something.... What a terrible feeling.

Update on me running and losing weight and whatnot..

Closing in on 30 lbs lost in under 2 months. When I wasn't even "fat" to begin with. Why do people who want to lose weight ***** so much about how hard it is? I eat more than any of my friends/family I'm eating with.. Daily. Going to "All you can eat" deals at a Japanese place nearby, as well as at Buffalo Wild Wings multiple times each week.. Eating bowls full of ice cream on nights in-between, not using any weight loss pills/throwing up/starving myself/etc. and this is still easy.

People are bad at stuff.

Alsoalso. I'm gonna cut down on the running/walking/running stairs/rollerblading and start building more upper body muscle once I get to 30 lbs under where I started. But I don't want to get huge or anything. Just like. Enough for people to go, "Oh, that guy has muscles."

Alsoalsoalso. Why do people pay so much for gym memberships, when you can find ways to work out just as hard in/around your home with minimal imagination and without spending a dime???

 

[Phoenix Lord']

Like I think I've said before, it's all in your head. As long as you really want to lose weight, you will. Anyone who doesn't get results just doesn't want it enough.

 

[Roller]

Anyone who doesn't get results just doesn't want it enough.

I agree.

Same goes for smash.

 

[Ussi]

@why get a gym membership

Weight lifting kits are expensive and need space. Easier to get a gym membership. Sure there are body exercises, but weight lifting lets you target specific muscles so you work out one body part a day and let it rest while focusing on another part.

 

[Roller]

But like. You could easily find **** that weighs an equitable amount with a decent grip on it at home.

 

[Ussi]

Eventually you'll need something heavier and won't find that weight at home that can be lifted the way you need it.

 

[Roller]

Do pushups.

If those are not enough, do clap push-ups.

If those aren't enough, do one handed push-ups.

If you want to do other muscles do crunches or squats or whatever, if those aren't enough then put a backpack on full of water bottles or something while doing the squats...

It's not that hard to think of stuff.

i disagree. people have different metabolisms and genes, it all effects your ability to lose and gain weight. thankfully i can lose weight real fast if i want to, but some people, especially older people, have difficult losing weight

 

[Scatz]

May not be hard to think of it, but you need accurate weight and/or work ethics to target what you want. Besides, you're only going for being cut. People that go to the gym (most anyways) go to gain muscle best way possible.

Also what mai Raichu bro said.

You need an exercise for shoulders and biceps so add lifting a box over your head then lowering and raising it while above your head.

 

[Roller]

@ Stealth: Your genes actually have very little to do with it. Your zip code, income, sleep schedule, stress level, physical activity, friend base, and childhood environment
ALL individually have WAAAAY more to do with it.

The average 20 something guy burns 2-2.5k Calories a day to perform natural bodily functions. Genetic predisposition only shifts this by very little. It's a very common misconception.

Plus drinking like 5 bottles of cold water per day would speed up your metabolism more than genes would be affecting it.

Unless you have a genetic disease, genes are just an excuse.

Also, you probably think you can lose weight faster because of the fact it's easy to lose like 6 lbs in water weight alone in just a couple days. That and the fact that the more extra weight you have on you, the more calories you have to expend to move yourself. Meaning as long as you are over weight, it will take less time running/swimming/whateverelse to burn the same number of calories as a fit person. But once you reach a more standard weight, your rate of fat burning will decrease as well and you wouldn't be able to lose it as fast.

You can look up info on it if you want, but genes are just a very small portion of what determines your weight. The one with the most influence would probably be whether or not you have a Y chromosome..

 

[KayLo!]

I don't go to the gym unless it's free or heavily discounted, but I like the atmosphere of working out somewhere other than home. It's like having a designated office space for doing work.... just gets me more focused.

Plus I have almost zero discipline, so if I'm at home, I can easily slack off or stop. If I'm at the gym, I'm gonna look silly sitting around doing nothing or clearly not trying, and the thought of a wasted trip usually stops me from quitting early.

Also it's more convenient to have any type of equipment you could possibly need right there. Without having to MacGyver ****.

 

[Scatz]

Lets face the facts: Roller just wants to Rambo his way to muscles.

 

[Jimmyfosho]

or cheapass his way

 

[Luckay4Lyphe]

What KayLo said. If I'm at home working out it's so easy to take a break and lie down on a comfy sofa or bed, just stop and eat something or do something else to distract you from how tired I am. Like now I'm working out, but I felt the need to go on smashboards and make this post. If I'm at the gym I just look for something else to work on after I'm done with the previous sets. I'm going to start going to the gym more now actually because I've been lazy not going cuz of school/new job.

 

[Roller]

I can understand doing it for the different atmosphere. I personally don't have a problem with giving up on working out at home, but I have that problem doing schoolwork for sure. I have to go down to a computer lab (luckily every building on campus has one) to get anything done. Hadn't thought of it from that perspective.

 

[NinjaFoxX]

i just walk alot and make sure im not fat.

thats good enough tbh.

 

[~automatic]

Lets face the facts: Roller just wants to Rambo his way to muscles.

That's the only way to do it.

 

[Vinylic.]

Kind of my first time hiking through a forest today.

And my first time encountering a deer.....who was apparently about to run right towards me. That was completely unexpected.

._.

 

[Cows]

Hell I haven't worked out in about 4 years... thats after high school

 

[~automatic]

Once you throw away those gym shorts there's no point in exercising.

 

[NinjaFoxX]

unless you're fat.

 

[Roller]

*and it bothers you.
