Is there interest on a LL health & fitness thread, perhaps dedicated to skinny dudes with weight gain problems? Basically everyone just posts in here with their problems and hopes that red_ will fix it with his magic powers, so maybe we can get a dedicated group going for mutual support yadda yadda. I know TL.net proper has a Health & Fitness but the only name I recognize in there is mordek

Afaik however it's only Alaric, PX, and me so far on the "if I continue to be a skinny gamer nerd my spine is going to snap in half" climb-out struggle

I just caught up on 1115 posts at 2 AM after not reading this thread for 4 days what am I even doing with my life. Mostly I learned that Moonbear is a pretty cool RA.

Also we talked about it a bit ago in LD GD but Dota has a weirdly bad streaming culture for how popular the game is. I'm not sure that Dota will even beat HS on twitch with DAC especially given the terrible hour that DAC was on at. I was falling asleep trying to watch it almost every night D:

oh and Firefly is the best Objects in Space is indeed the best episode they're all good though

edit: nice I have the latest post in both LL and LD GD, I'm the coolest dude on these forums without a doubt

My problem is 2 fold when it comes to fitness. I'm already incredibly unmotivated to do things, and if I can't will myself into doing something it usually just doesn't get done. I have no one local that's on my time schedule to "force/make" me obligated to actually do something other than to come home every day and make some sort of "meal".

That and my diet is total shit. I'm pretty sure I've put weight on since high school. And while being 6'7 helps, being like 440 still is like fat as all hell. I should really get around to doing any sort of exercise at all.

So mean Zess, I'm a Skinny dude going to gym for last 4 months. Well I did put on a lot of fat when I was bailing out of uni and drinking whiskey alone at home every day. So I'm a fat skinny guy. It may be a cool idea.

In my case it's more a mix of "I'm not too satisfied with my appearance/I get straight-up angry at myself when I struggle to do what I consider a basic task" that became "There's this lump of fat that started growing above my hips and I'm pretty sure that isn't how 'I could weight 45 pounds more and be at a normal weight' is supposed to evolve".
That I've basically treated my health the way a carefree student only worries about an assignment when the due date is around the corner tells about my maturity, I guess.

The stress that started late last summer prob had a part too, as I ate more chocolate and stuff in the evening to keep my mind off it and started using the car to go to lunch (2x 15 minutes walks at a fast pace isn't much, but still above nothing when you exercise that little). That's about when I started taking on that fat.
And what I do prob does more to build up strength than burn fat (sometimes plunges/push-ups, no/low-weight squats, series of folding up each arm while carrying a weight (read: 20 lbs, not lifting 150 or something)), I certainly feel like my whole body isn't as tired as previously so I assume I get tired before I burn much.

I should probably run (or swim, but I don't like that at all although it'd be better), burn more, better lung capacity, doing it outside, etc.
eg. get less lazy and actually commit to it instead of doing whatever I can do in 10 minutes at a time at home.

I was exactly the same. Throughout uni I kind of left my own health and image go while focusing on the work. Now I have nothing to show for that and feel/look not how I want to be. I find it's just all about routine as usual. At first I was pretty scared to go to the gym, took me maybe 4 months of building up courage but then I just went and spoke to the people there eventually getting one of the staff to help me out of a month which helped my motivation a lot. He'd message me to make sure I was coming then take me through an hour of training. Once that was settled I just kept going now for last few months. The inertia is hard but just got to try overcome it.

I'm more or less too broken to work out.
I'm sure there must be some ways around it but I don't know what they are and I'm not sure how I'd even find out. Not that I'm particularly motivated to do so.

I feel for you man. Really sucks when your body won't let you do normal things even if you wanted to. My sister, for example, isn't supposed to lift anything heavier than a gallon of milk because of her health issues.

I know you're skinny but when you nearly squat 2x bw you're spine is probably going to be ok or that set was some sort of atrocity and you nearly died

And you all should work out. It's da best. I wasn't feeling it today but I got in at 6 anyways. Want to know what one of the worse things to realize after a workout? You forgot a towel.

I'm not actually interested in a H&F thread. I don't plan on posting about the topic often and I'm mostly interested in minimum fitness to improve health rather than mad gainz. While I've done a little posting here I'm getting most of my information from googling lots of places.

Firefly is a comedic space western, so i guess kinda like cowboy Bebop. It requires a little homework to watch "properly" as the fanbase determines. as the original episodes were aired out of order, so you may need to double check if the place you are watching them has them in their aired order or the canon order. its on netflix so there really is no reason not to at least peruse the first episode.

They are in the correct order on Netflix.

Nope, I was just looking at the list. Unless it's different elsewhere. It was correct until War Stories, but then it played Heart of Gold and Objects in Space, which should be after Trash and The Message.

Oh wow, so they fixed the pilot not being first but didn't fix the rest of it, lame. So it's 1-10, 13-14, and then 11-12. Could be worse I suppose.

snowboarding and partying was great all weekend but the hot tub broke as soon as we got there so that really sucked cause i was looking forward to it so much now im having trouble staying awake at my desk.

edit: i liked out of gas too actually. love the back stories.

There is a bodyweight fitness thread on TL also if that interests anyone. I actually own Overcoming Gravity but it's been awhile since I've done any of that. Been getting the itch for awhile and probably decent for Tough Mudder prep.
