    10 CRAZY FITNESS RULES THAT SHOULD EXIST

    Crazy Rule #1
    1. If you order a Big Mac, do 10 pushups. Combo meal? Drop and give us 20. Ever seen an overweight person do 20 perfect pushups? We haven't either.


    Crazy Rule #2
    2. Before you purchase luggage with wheels, perform a suitcase walk. Carry a dumbbell—choose one that equals half of your body weight—by your side for 40 to 100 yards.


    Crazy Rule #3
    3. Sure, go ahead and buy that Big Gulp full of soda. But swim 30 laps—the same number of ounces in your drink—before you take a sip.


    Crazy Rule #4
    4. If you take a taxi fewer than 10 blocks, push it for two of those blocks. Anyone who can push a cab that far easily has the cardiovascular fitness to walk 100 blocks.


    Crazy Rule #5
    5. Use the elevator at work? You better be able to walk up five flights of stairs before you can take it again.


    Crazy Rule #6
    6. Before hitting snooze on your alarm clock, complete 25 jumping jacks.


    Crazy Rule #7
    7. Every time you order a beer, hold the pint at arm's length for 90 seconds before you drink it. Spill? The clock starts again.


    Crazy Rule #8
    8. Stand for the length of a movie before you buy a ticket to see it. (Double the time if you plan to chow down on a tub of popcorn during the flick.)


    Crazy Rule #9
    9. Before you lie down, demonstrate how to stand up with ease. Complete a perfect Turkish getup to purchase a La-Z-Boy recliner.

    Crazy Rule #10
    10. Walk to your coworker's office to relay a message or ask them a question. Only if they're not there can you shoot them an email. Don't feel like getting up before hitting send? One dollar is deducted from your paycheck.

    I don't follow any of the OP's rules D: this is not good.

    Rules I do follow (for myself):

    Drink NOTHING but water
    Always have your water bottle handy and gulp it down with every meal and snack
    Drink as much water as possible
    Measure and weight everything
    Don't go for that extra cookie
    Snack on veggies

    Hey guys remember if you want to target fat on your stomach, then do a lot of situps and crunches to spot reduce. Also, try to avoid consuming too much of that fat macronutrient, because that's what makes you fat (obviously, hence the name)

    And NEVER eat less than 1200 calories or else you will go into starvation mode and you'll actually store fat

    2 hours of cardio every day.

    more like four!

    I'll see your four and raise you two more.

    while on 1200 cals a day

    That's for bulking right?

    no dude, you bulk at 1000 cals per day and four hours of cardio a day with minimal weight training...

    Because most, if not all, of these things are unnecessary.

    Because the tinfoil hat committee will congregate and camp on your front lawn and the toxins from all that tinfoil will seep into the ground, infect the water supply, and kill your entire family.
