I've never had to motivate anyone because I'm kind of a cold-hearted jerk. Maybe you could invite her to the site and let her discover the lifestyle for herself. She might even be excited to be learning new things on her own.

A little sloppy, but very impressive. That dude's a beast.

I need to be laying on my back, looking up at a big-@$$ TV to enjoy my gaming zone.

I'm so happy to hear that you're doing so much better. Way to go, Hannah!

Well this time I didn't remember burpees until I'd showered and was getting dressed. I'm thinking I'll have to just change and do them at the gym at work, this afternoon.

I totally didn't remember that I was planning on doing this until I was finishing my circuit. I was smoked and running late at that point. My bad. Tomorrow.

Hilarious!

What?! This sounds like an awesome challenge. I'll work this in tomorrow morning.

I'm down to be friends with anyone who says "Winter is coming". Let's both get super hot this winter!

Aww, that's brutal. Wish I had some better advice than "fake it 'til you make it" but I think starting at a gym is just like starting any other new thing. You just have to step out of your comfort zone. Maybe you could start off with a personal trainer to familiarize you with some of the equipment. That would at least help…

I've been making some incredibly slow progress on my bulk, but that's on me. Feel free to add me. I like picking up heavy things and putting them back down.

How long have you been living together? Does common-law marriage apply?

I've never seen Locked Up. Is it a TV show or a movie? The IMDB for the movie, doesn't look all that appealing.

Happy Halloween to you, too! Candy will feel my wrath tonight.

Sounds like fun. But I don't live in California (thankfully) and I don't feel like getting murdered, either. Hard pass.

So that's what Onederland means... Congrats! That's a hell of an accomplishment and it must have been a lot of hard work. You rock!

How long you should do the treadmill really depends on your fitness level. Just challenge yourself without overdoing it. I'm excited for you. You have a whole world of gym to explore!

They may have been around forever, but I think by trendy, it means that they've become more popular or are trending. Fresh kale is OK. Kale chips are crap.

Congrats on starting at the gym! You should see if your gym offers a tour and/or one free personal training assessment session. That might give you some ideas. Other than that, it's hard to offer any advice without knowing what your goals are. Cardio equipment is fairly self-explanatory, but I'd recommend easing into the…

Congrats! You're doing awesome.

@MeganAM89 made me smile. This girl is truly amazing.

I love playing this game on that machine at the bar. The purse on the door, the charger on the floor... JK. I don't think a week is enough time to see much difference. I'm glad you hear you're killing it.

Congrats! You look awesome. That must have been a lot of hard work.

Yeah, probably. She's got some ferocity in those eyes.

Wouldn't you want advice from girls? I think Awb1309's pretty much hit the nail on the head. That and "Don't sweat the petty things, and don't pet the sweaty things."

Well, this is a pretty weird thread I've wandered into. Donut logistics is definitely something I haven't put much thought in.

Beets are awesome! I tried to make a beet smoothie one time. That was decidedly not awesome, however.

That's hilarious because it's true. To complete the uniform, they always tuck their shirt into their jeans.

I think infatuation is when you're so won over by someone that you overlook all their flaws. Love is when you recognize those flaws, but stick with them anyway.
