    A weak *kitten* workout. Only I frustrate myself in the gym. All else is not there.

    Lol. And you're basing that on...?
    I do all your standard compound lifts - squats, deadlifts, overhead press, barbell rows, bench (incline/decline) etc

    I injured myself playing competitive sports so I focus much more on form then trying to lift super heavy and impress people at the gym or on the interwebs, ya dig?

    I was basing that on all of your pictures you have posted in your profile. Gotcha...Don't want to bulk up so you stay in the high rep toning range. I can appreciate that. Is that a no on Tae bo?

    My shirtless pics are about 2 years old, friend.
    My goals are pretty simple, feel good about myself, be healthy and look good naked.
    That is a no on the Tae Bo.

    What are you numbers on the big three?

    The pretty women who wear yoga pants on treadmills in front of my treadmill. Sigh, I've almost killed myself a couple times staring at their bottoms xD

    I wouldn't want them to stop :D we're just complaining, it's all I had

    LOL.. at my gym the ellipticals and bikes are in front of the treadmills. I workout on the elliptical and wonder when there are guys on the treadmill behind me if they are watching me.. I wouldnt want them to get hurt.. you know. for their safety...

    @shellma00
    My best cardio workouts are when there is an excellent view in front of me, but that only happens when I am on a machine first. If there is a row of machines available, I am not going to set up shop behind a woman.

    Wouldn't it be easier if you just skipped straight to the inches?

    Honestly I have so many issues with the gym that I bought some good equipment and do everything at home now. Don't miss the gym.

    In answer to your question, unsolicited advice from total strangers who have no freaking idea what I am trying to accomplish

    Especially when I am doing a modified version of the exercise

    So out of curiousity - is it really awkward if a girl takes off her shirt in the sauna, obvi i have a sports bra on, but is it super awkward?

    I used to not... now i do. Most of the time the guys dont flinch, so i took that as a sign it was NBD.

    - When you're meditating alone in the dim classroom and 2 chicks storm in, turn on all the lights, and are blasting T-Swift on their phones in preparation for their booty circuit. Gurrrrl, you lucky we pay the same fees up in here.
