Yeah I'm glad I got some nice treads at the gym, I usually run outside but the weather has dipped down to like 20F lately and we just got some snow. They also just got this new Life Fitness elliptical with adjustable stride length or something and it feels a lot better than normal elliptical that always feel like they're forcing me to run with someone else's legs.

feels awesome when you find out you were doing a lift juuuuuust a little wrong and you manage to correct it running chat: finally back on it since i went on hiatus a couple weeks ago for no good reason. got a high on my first time out  C-Euro posted:My wife gave me a trial membership at a boxing/Muay Thai/BJJ gym for Christmas a couple years ago and I really liked it. Did mostly boxing with a bit of Muay Thai at the end, boxing is a pretty good cardio workout if you do it properly. TheKingslayer posted:Seconding the Muay Thai suggestion. You learn some standing grappling and how to use your elbows, which in the off chance you have to protect yourself is much safer on your body than punching people. i'll look up muay thai, thanks! dunno if i'm gonna be able to find any in my area, so i'll take boxing as second choice if it comes to that.

I got bored with lifting and fell out of practice when I moved, but I found a climbing gym near me that has a secret power rack that no one uses because climbers are allergic to mass, but it means I can do my namby pamby climbing then go bench or squat depending on which muscles I have left

I got a single session with a trainer to correct my form on the Stronglifts stuff. He spent like 5 minutes trying to get me correct on the barbell rows and then went, "hey look...you don't need to figure out the form to use these 3 row machines." He also said he wouldn't start a beginner on free weights at all, but I'm just going to ignore him on that. But other than the barbell rows, I think I have a better handle on the form for stuff now.

Free weights own but I would definitely make sure you have someone there to observe and correct your form if you're starting out, otherwise you end up with Don Jr deadlifts. If this trainer is telling you not to worry about free weight form when you ask him to help you learn said form, then he is probably bad at his job! Also, does chewing gum count as breaking a fast y/n

Free weights rule but yeah, be cautious about using them if you're starting out. Having someone more experienced keep an eye on you is a big help. As for the barbell rows, did you do them in front of a mirror? If not, practice in front of one with your trainer--or at least a youtube video or something. It'll help you realize where you're going wrong.

PostNouveau posted:He didn't say that.
