Do you have any silly names you call going to the gym or working out?

I say I am "hamster wheeling" or "hamstering."

Obviously because I go to a gym and get on machines and exercise....

    I say, "I'm going to the gym to work out."

    I like to live on the edge.

    Hamster wheeling is a funny one. Be careful using the term hamstering, it could be miscontstrued!

    I don't often say "work out." I usually just say "I'm going to exercise." Which I then shorten to "I'm gonna 'cize."

    I say "I'm getting ripped" (albeit sarcastically)

    I call it "Going on a mission" since I'm normally outside. Also because I use the Zombies! Run! App, which makes working out tons more fun.

    OMG yes! hahahaaa
    I actually hadn't thought of it that way until I typed it out for this post.
    Luckily it's usually just between my bf and me.

    There's an accelerometer option that works on movement instead of geo-location so it even works in the gym :)
