    That said, I draw boundaries at the gym. I have a bunch of really good friends there, but if I'm in the middle of a hard set and I see you standing next to me and staring, b*tch, I will not remove my headphones. Catch ya' tomorrow.

    Rowing a double.
    Rowing a quad.
    Rowing a four with competent (or better) people.
    Rowing an eight with semi-competent (or better) people.
    Rowing a single.

    Five isn't enough. I still want to bike, spin, and generally have active fun with walking/hiking, canoeing, kayaking . . . .

    Life is too short for just 5. ;)

    Or, you could just say #1 is rowing and add 4 more... :)

    Clearly, you're not a rower.

    If you were, you'd understand. ;)

    Gonna add 5 more anyway. :)

    "The gym became too social..."
    Ok... I don't know what that means.
    Put on your ear buds, put on your "don't bug me man!" attitude, and do what you gotta do

    I have some equipment @home so I split my workouts between the gym and home and only go to the gym @630a before work so I can get in and get out before the party starts, so I'm not waiting for machines ;)
    Elliptical
    Ball pass (amazing for core strength)
    Kettle bell swing (my favorite new addition)
    Dead lift (really like these)
    Leg press (gym)/Squats (home)

    Burpees
    Planks or shoulder taps
    leg lifts
    squat jumps
