I have strong legs and comparatively weak upper body (I enjoy lifting lower body more). think a reverse no-leg-day gym bro. how much of a handicap would this be for climbing?

oh huh I talked to a friend about this and he said that's actually what they do. they would put paper in front of a wall and punch it for hours. p good IMO. I don't want baby hands like mayweather

I like pizza too, pizza man, but I lay off it from time to time. in my experience doing heavy cardio stuff like boxing regularly makes you feel gross and bad when you start eating/living bad so it kinda forces you to stay on track

I hope the climbing gym after new year's isn't like the gym gym after new year's day.

if nothing else, the boxing corner is my safe space where i can be sure some butt who's showing off gives up the space when I start wrapping. I will at least do that if the lifting areas are too crowded like he male fears.

no that's better IMO. I've seen people who could lift heavy with strict form but give them a rock or log to carry or do things a construction worker would do and they fail early on.

Dancing, lol.

this is true. I used to dance competitively and your calves hurt a lot. but I was gifted with monster calves so I don't have tiny chicken leg problems :3: Maybe try Rumba, Cha Cha, or salsa

speaking of salsa I've made a giant batch of lightly marinated chicken and use it to make bulging quesadillas where it's like a chicken breast or more inside a tiny tortilla with some cheese then dip it into salsa. good, easy protein that doesn't get boring quickly IMO.

There's a new boxing and fitness club that just opened up at my uni. They claim to actually teach boxing and have intro boxing classes but they don't have any sparring. Equipment looks decent. I'm afraid they'll just be yet another cardio boxing/kickboxing place that dont' really teach you how to fight, but they have free classes this week so I might drop by and try it out.

I never did understand the popularity of those cardio-only boxing gyms. You're never forced to spar at a real boxing gym so why do they ever make ones that don't have it at all? :confused:

I ripped my shorts doing squats once. I think they caught on the back of my knees as I went down. ripped right down the middle. good thing my boxer-briefs didn't rip. I was just getting started with leg day though so it would be a waste if I went home early. I finished leg day and later walked home with a big hole in my shorts.

well that's my story. I'll stitch my shorts together when I have some time but luckily it was on the seam so it won't be noticeable

yeah it was pretty epic. seeing the board slip from under him made my eyes go wide. I had that happen once too, though only a ~15-20 foot wave instead of 25-30 these guys were riding. the board slipped under me too, it's p scary.

the brain needs to be muscular enough to maintain its position as alpha muscle, leader of all the others. when the legs no longer respect it and break free from its absolute control is the moment things get ugly.

anyone know where I can get a sweet pair of preferably pink jogging pants that say PINK or JUICY or something else appropriate across the butt? Need something fun and cute for winter squats and deadlifts

been trying for couple years but i'm prob not looking at the right places and victoria's secret only has smaller sizes the couple times I've been. maybe someone else makes them???

I miss my Gold's. Four squat racks, tons of plates, and every machine I could ask for. That place was dope.

I can't decide if I like the gyms with enough plates for convenience or if I like gyms where I have to steal every plate in the vicinity for deadlifts and leg presses so I feel powerful.

t-shirts are actually extremely important and useful at the gym since they get destroyed over years of use. I wish I was given free t-shirts - i'm p envious. I keep going through those faster than running shorts (which admittedly I prob should be using heavier shorts for other activities I do)
