Sex is good exercise cos it burns calories - it's just not really targetted exercise but hey it's supposed to make you feel better so you do start exercising properly right? Well obviously I don't have any proof or personal experience but it makes sense, lol.

 

I only go to the gym to look at girls in tight clothes.

 

It doesn't just have to be the Gym, I mean I jog past a couple of pretty women every so often.

I used to have problem with shin splints while running a lot until I did outdoor track. Then, my legs just never hurt as much when running. I'm guessing the constant running I did finally got my legs in the right shape. Even still, I got into the habit of using Dr. Scholl's whenever I go out running. They help.

I always jog over the same distance and although I've definitely cut heaps off the time taken, it seems more of a case of determination rather than fitness of my legs (or both )

I'll never understand the skimpy-tight exercise outfit. Sure, the skimpy tight outfit for when you're actually trying to attract a date or something...

 

...oh wait.

 

Anyway, I exercise in baggy sweats and t-shirts. Actually, that's what I wear half the time even when I'm not exercising. Comfort over tight-crotch-pinching stuff anyday.

You think that's bad? Here in LA, girls go to gym wearing make-up and flirt all over the place. Try doing bench press when two people start making out right next to you.

When I used to go to the gym, I would wear tight shorts just to be a tease. Every time i bent over a bunch of guys would be looking at me. I could tell since the gym had wall to wall mirrors.

Home gym...that's the answer. One year instead of spluring on things like cameras I'm going to buy all the home gym stuff for the garage.

Heh...I'm not like that, but sometimes on hot days it's inevitable. I remember once skinny dipping in the backyard pool only to realize much later that the whole time there were some roof-repair guys on the house a couple houses over...that was funny.

[thepixiesrock]

Funny, or creepy?

[LadyCrimson]

Definitely funny.

Yous should have danced and give them a show.

They didn't happen to be laughing hysterically?

[Gabrielle]

You know how to strike out don't ya?

[GhostofAnakin]

I can be a sweetheart when I feel like it.

I like to wear tight spandex when I work out at a gym, too. I find people seem to give me room to do my thing and I get quick access to the equipment.

[Gabrielle]

Ever been hit on by a big hunk?

Only when I talk to myself in the mirror. "

I don't wear tight clothes out jogging (cos I'm a guy obviously) but if you wear something too baggy it can make your exercise crap, like in my case I did wear a pair of pretty baggy shorts once and it killed my time from the extra resistance.

I'm pretty sure all those lycra-wearing women I've gone past aren't looking for a date or anything (but they didn't look like pro-sports people either)

Seeing men in tight spandex, makes me gag.

 

A healthy body leads to a healthy mind. You are what you eat after all.

 

More exercise and a healthy diet will lead to a longer life and less medical bills.

^But it makes you grumpy.

Shins splints are usually caused by an imbalance (flexibility and/or strength) between the calf and shin muscles, the bone bends as a result.

If you stretch both throroughly before and after running you should be ok, toe and calf raises also help.

My advice is don't do it. Water's good, but I wouldn't worry too much about looking for one diet over another. Hell, my philosophy has always been to eat whatever the hell you want, just make sure you sweat it out at some point.
