Crono said: I don't even like my gym that much (Planet Fitness) but it's a half a mile from my house (not exagerating) and ten bucks a month... who can freaking argue with that? If I lived 30 minutes from a gym I'd be hard pressed to go workout too. One thing I really want to get back into is tennis. I played was captain of my team in high school but after that I stopped playing for the most part. There were stints in college where I'd get a match going once a week but it never lasted more than 2 months at a time. After college I've probably played... less than 15 matches since then. I really do miss it but not having anyone around at my skill level (not great but not casual) sucks hard. Oh man, I really miss the suicide drills too; so fun! Spidey: I wish I had people to hike with like that! Everytime I go on one with a group it's a bunch of people who think they can make it at least 8 miles but 3 miles in with almost no elevation change everyone wants to turn around; lame! I went to the Grand Canyon with the woman last year and we made it about 1.5-2 miles down before she said she wouldn't make the return trip... granted SHE was having knee issues at the time so I can't give her shit but still . :(
Coolsetzer said: All you have to do to lose weight is to do cardio and watch your calories. In my experience, it really doesn't matter what you eat so much. Look up Body Mass Index to find out if you're overweight. One pound is 3,500 calories. A normal diet is 2,000 for males, 2,500 for females. But again, you have to exercise and get your heart rate up. Normally, a human needs at least 1,200 calories every day to just stay alive. Hope that helps someone.
