My fitness confession

Yanicka1

I am almost done with "the new rules of lifting for women" ,just one more week.

My fitness confession is that I still suck at push ups. I can do 5 proper one but I still have to do them at an small incline if I want to do more.

I am ashamed

Now you!!!

I HATE burpee's (in any way, shape or form) with a passion.

I confess that I have no idea what a burpee is but it makes me laugh every time I read it.

I haven't worked out my abs in well over a month. I thought about it today, for like 5 seconds but didn't.

My confession: I like to flex in the mirror after I lift. It's super narcissistic & cheesy, but it makes me smile.

I find Cardio so boring that any more than 30 minutes at a time can make me suicidal. Sports make it bearable, but otherwise it is just mind-numbing to me.

I don't do cardio hardly at all....

my confession: On the weekends, I put on my yoga pants and a sports bra because it makes me feel skinnier

I spend entirely too much time checking out my body in panties and bra. Both admiring how much I have lost and picking out the flaws.

Confession 1: I only take 1-2 rest days a month, and that's usually because something out of my control causes me to miss my workout.

Confession 2: I would do nothing but cardio if common sense didn't force me in the weight room 2-3 days a week.

(and yes... I know no one is actually forcing me to lift. I do it of my own free will, but that doesn't mean I have to enjoy it! I just like what it does for my body.)

I regularly, accidentally-on-purpose forget to do pull-ups in my weight routine every week.

I know, I'm a terrible person.

Now I don't feel so bad...only a few weeks in to NROL4W and I can only do one proper pushup! My upper body strength pretty much sucks at the moment. :grumble:

I enjoy passing gas when doing sit-ups.

:sad: I have beautiful new running shoes & I haven't walked/ran in over a week.

I lip sync in the mirror on the treadmill, and have been known to sing out loud when I'm the only one there.
And I definitely sing out loud when I run outside, mostly when I'm out in the country or alone on the trail. I can't help being moved by a song!!!

My Mary-Jane Shape-Up Skechers look like granny shoes (or "special shoes" a co-worker did suggest Forrest Gump and when I got up to walk to the printer he yelled "Run Heather RUN!" ha ha!) but I adore them (it's like walking on pillows) and power walk through the Financial District of Toronto every lunch hour not caring that no one <60 years old wears anything other than a 3+ inch heal.

I only workout on the treadmill and have been like that since coming back from our Christmas cruise in December.

Nobody [until now] knows that I go to the gym every day so I can train for a triathalon and I only do it so I can say that I'm a tri-ATHLETE!

LaDiablesse

I can't do a pull-up to save my life.

I love burpees but I suck at push ups! I don't know why though.

When I first starting walking at lunch at my last office I actually broke into the 'Thriller' dance when I walked through a forested part of my walk so I totally get this! My current fav is Robyn's "Dancing on My Own". I memorize the main dance starting at min 1.25 b/c I adore this song so much but unfortunately must resist the urge to do it where I work now - downtown core so there is no invisibility + I can't listen to music, it's just not safe in such a busy area. Hmmm, walking on the Harbor front is pretty desserted at this time of year, I think my mp3 player needs to come back for tomorrows walk, yay!

I live in my yoga pants and sports bra when I am home because it makes me feel like everything is just so!

Pinkmaddycat

When I have had enough to drink to make me feel a bit tipsy I feel like i could run a marathon, in heels and often run through the streets between pubs, clubs or after taxis.....truth is i struggle to run a mile in my trainers when sober, go figure!

As much as I love the post-workout feeling, I hate the bloating that comes with it.

Oh, and I despise cardio.

^^Yup.

Totally agree!!! But they work my body so good!!!

AlaskaLily

This forum was soo much fun to read! Hilarious.

My confession: I would have to agree with a lot of these, especially core work-outs...I am always like "hell no, no crunches today." I also HATE plyos...burpees, mountain climbers! If I could just spin all the time, I would be perfectly happy!

PoorGirlEatingHealthy

I won't do lunches or squats. I hate them so much that if I am doing a wii workout or a video i skip them entirely
