Also Working On It 8 years, 3 months agoAfter Pride I decided to give up beer for a month, cuz I think Indrank about five gallons a day during June (not entirely an over exaggeration… We were celebrating pretty hard!) I’m now in week two, substituting lots of water infused with lemons and berries for a nice cold refreshing drink that I won’t feel bad about guzzling by the gallon in…[Read more]

Also Working On It 8 years, 3 months agoHave you guys ever heard of “The Plank Challenge?” You do “The Plank” every day for a month, gradually increasing the time you hold it.
There are a ton of free, simple apps which count down the time alloted for each day and I strongly recommend this!
It’s a work out for core strength that uses your own body weight, is very effective and it doesn’t…[Read more]-
@amidola There are days when all the exercise I do is a couple minutes of planking, and this inspires me to get a little more consistent and thoughtful about it. Thanks for the tip!

I’ve just started a 30 day ab challenge that includes planking! I’ll be sharing lots of feelings about the app in an upcoming post but so far I’m really enjoying it. I can only plank for 30 seconds but that number has been slowly increasing, which is nice.

Plank makes baby Jesus cry. (At least they’re not burpees.)

Also Working On It 8 years, 3 months agoHey Straddlers,
Here’s a problem: I fell out of love with the gym. I’ve been going since October (first with a personal trainer six times a month, then on my own since April, aiming for 3-4 times a week). When I came back after vacation, I went once, loathed every single second on the elliptical/treadmill (it felt awful and fake and loathsome…[Read more]

Have you tried different instructors at your gym (do you have that option)? Group classes at my gym are all included in the membership, which is great, but I definitely find that some instructors are better than others and I prefer the ones who are less crazy fitness-y.
You could also look into cheap or free social dance opportunities in your city…[Read more]-

Why don’t you find a Cardio thing that works for you? Godzilla couldn’t make me do the Elliptical, and I just don’t have the concentration and coordination for the treadmill. Also that whole running and puking my lungs out thing? Not for me.
What really works for me is rowing. I put on a playlist according to mood and then I use its rhythm.
It’s…[Read more]-
I second the erg! although it can be pretty intense. defs bring a good playlist.
also does your gym have a track? if you’re okay with running but hate the treadmill (me) actually physically covering distance can make it feel more real!
