just wondering. how many guys here work out. how often. and what are you favorite exercises?

hmm. haha since i don't go to the gym i go "home-made" style haha pushups, pullups, and gotta love them sit ups LOL

i'm a grl (yea, we're invading ur privacy but who cares? ) i don't enjoy working out @ all, but i do it 2 stay in shape. i mostly work on my abs(situps, crunches) i despise push-ups cuz i hav no arm muscles :) hm, i use 2 do wall-sits but not so much anymore.

I love working out. It feels great. I used to do push-ups and curl-ups regularly at my house, then our high school has a weight room, so I workout about 8 days a week. My favorite exercises are benching and squatting.

i always forget to work out or like im too tired lift weights but i try durin weekdays. i do bicep curls, bench press, and som other crap i dont know what theyre called. i just went to mens health site and copy what the guy was tryin to do

i just workout at home.. situps pushups and lift weights

Well, I get off the computer seat once in a while...

i get an awesome workout clicking the mouse button

yea, my index finger works out quite a lot. pity about my middle finger, I don't use the right click button as much

there is no need to work out. just eat healthy and just go about your day. you won't get fat...beside if there is a famine fat people will live longer that those that work out till the point of having no fat

yeah i have no time working out.. my gf tells me i've gotten fatter since i started college.. which i think is true.. but does ddr count?? i do a lil push ups and sit ups here and there..

hmm... well i dont work out, but colorgaurd practice twice a week for 2 hours each does a good job for me. and p.e's every week or every other week cross country and mile runs do me well too, along with running outside my apt complex every week. ^^ if im especially hyper, i'll do alot of crunches for fun and to get abs, but i doubt it'll ever happen. the best i ever got was a 4 pack, but i lost it already keke BOOYAH gurls takin over~

hmm ima usually too lazy to workout. the onlee thing i do is jog around the block a few times or get on tread mill fo 30min. i onlee do taht so i can get in shape for track

haha freshmen15 :-p yea, i guess ddr counts...!

LOL, I found that cute.

It's true you don't "workout", but all those aerobic excersises keeps most of the fat off.

haha

weight resistance training is the best. cant argue with that.

sit ups and push ups are best for upper body strength

my daily routine is.

1)stretches
2) push ups, do as much as you can, then stop for 20 seconds, then repeat again and again.
3)sit ups. same routine as pushups.
4)pushups.
5)situps
6)dunno word for it..you crouch, and jump up and down. awsome for leg muscle developing.
7)i do handstands for as long as i can. ( doesnt really help, but, im practicing for...something... :) )

if you do those every day, youll get buffed up.

i assume uve been doin that everyday since...i dont know months. so is ur theory proven u wrong? u dont get buffed just by doin those. no matter how hard u try even if u work out and lift weights everyday 4 an hour, but if ur diet is not balanced then all that hard work is nothin...im not tryin to be offensive if u think i am

well, as for me, i've been doing push-ups and crunches everday before i went to sleep from 4th grade to 7th grade, and i've gotten pretty buffed up. really.
but maybe that's just me

I work out.

I look skinny with my shirt on, but off, I like like kinda a minnie Bruce Lee bod. Wierd.

But I can't get bigger and it's frustrating. trying to eat all the Protien I can and I work out, but dunno what wrong? Maybe it's just being asian? i dunno~

HAHAHAHHA LMAO! erm... steroids? just kidding!! DONT EVER TAKE IT!! NONONO TO STERIODS! erm... more er... arm muscle training? derno... try heavier weights? i ono... i not a pro at this. all i noe how to do is jump rope and rifle tossing and flag catching and running and doing crunches and... OH!

jumping jacks get rid of ur fat that overlay ur abs!!! thass the only thing i probably noe...

oOo...can i c? lol, jk

Eh, well, guys wear baggy shirts and pants so most of you guys look skinny (no, i am not telling u to start wearing tight shirts, lol)

yea prolly. even if u have that diet goin on, regular routines every week, good hrs of sleep, and plenty of H20 but if ur meant to be skinny, ur gonna stay that way 4 the rest of ur life. i dont think u can drastically alter ur genes so...

i do them every day. im pretty big. o__O

asians arnt meant to be body builders.

i work out... my fingers! i play piano, video games, computer, tv remote (not as much) !!!

lmao

kyro has a crapload of finger muscles. hes like, muscle man. im seirous.

8 days a week, huh.......that's interesting. i just work out either at the lifetime fitness center....(a fitness center) or at the weight room at school...and i go 3 times a week....7 days...not 8......just a reminder.

imwa qrl here!! l0ls but newais...hmm i luv runnin~ lols jk..do i?... i mean i suck at it...hahaha.... DANCING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! lols does that count? lols... not like regular dancing... HIP HOP DANCING!!!

haha i used to take tae kwon do and that kept me in shape i also did pushups and situps at home. and now i'm in track haha i had a pretty good 6 pack but now it's not that visible anymore haha

OMG, the only time I EVER excercise is in P.E. hahas I know I know, cause I'm a girl. I just um.. TRIPPED.. yes tripped... into this thread =P Anyhow, wow, too much muscles, SEON HO! Yes Yes, I saw them! hahas *drools* jk lol anyhow guys really like to feel fit and muscular, huh?


I don't think any of you guys have seen those body-builder women, have you all?! They are so BUFF! And guys too! lol, competition...

I need to find a way to get my bf to work out. He's not fat, he's sort of skinny, in some ways (legs, wrist, chest) and he's just like "whatever.." How do you all get the inspiration to do it? (This question goes out to KrnxSwat for his body building) I want my bf to have abs, lol, instead of being thing and whatever >_<" hahas and also, Kryogenix.... MY BF HAS Finger Muscles too! You guys should have a finger/arm wrestle contest! That would be the shizznitz! (yes, I said shizznitz =P)

maybe i should make a topic, in the pictures section, "post your muscles!"

i think it would be a VERY popular topic...

MWAHAHAHAAH i'll post my ABZ! ahahhahahaha jkjk i dont gots any. just like the line in the middle and a BARELY visible horizontal line in the center of the line down the middle. gots to start building my abs up. i want 4 pack!!!!! i want a VISIBLE and THUROUGH 4 pack, not one thass liike barely there. arghz

keke but i gots my arms toned up colorgaurd does strengthen up ur muscles like HECK... i had like flabbery arms where you could stretch the skin out like half an inch... but now its all like firm... hehe but hopefully, its not guna get bigger....

I PLAY NO SPORT! lol. I'm one of the laziest people (physical-wise) people I know. I'm trying to stop it though. I want to play Badminton, but I have to get used to running.. WHICH TAKES ME 15 MINUTES TO RUN A MILE! becuase I run as much as I can, walk, then run again. Anyhow, wow, wish I had some muscles, but not like rock hard ones, just some so that I have some strenth =)

Hm, i'm not so much of the arm muscles, but more of abs person. OMG! i don't like women-body builders, no offense but i just don't think it looks as nice on a girl as on a guy. perhaps it's just because i'm a grl, but ehhh. i don't wanna 6pack, or a 4pack, lol, i just want it to look toned!

HAHA lols cloud, i agree with you on the muscular woman part. i dont want to look all like... ms. muscle arnold wannabe person. i mean, but iw ant to keep my abs right. like i want a 4 pack cause it looks like i am skiiny and like toned. but of course, i'll have to work on it.

as for my arms, its just like NOt flabbery. dont get me wrong, its not like BOOMBOOMBOOM like guys with awl their muscles. just the main muscle (i forgot wats it called...) is visible wen i do the flex thingy. the line is... distinct xP. hahaha

you should see my P.E teacher... she's a woman... and dang... volleyball has made her into macho woman she can be so scary at times...

Haha
Bleh. I just think mostly about... the girl I like. Haha, pathetic I know. But sometimes I also think of people I hate.

My parents bought me a gym set for my birthday so it helped me greatly build up some muscle.

Anyway heres my schedule. For the most part I try to do this all before school in the morning. It alternates into two kinds of week

Week A
Monday - Upper body
*Triceps pushdown
*Butterfly
*Bicep curl ups
*Bench Press

Tuesday
Going outside and just running around my town.
for about 30mins at a good pace and aiming for 3 miles a day

Wednesday - Lower body
I basically dont know what the lower body ones are called but they work out the abs and duh the legs. My least favorite things to do.

Thursday
Same as Tues

Friday
Same as monday

Saturday
Same as Tues


Week B

Monday - Lower body

Tuesday - Runnin around

Weds - Upper Body

Thurs - Running around

Friday - Lower body

Sat - Running around

So it alternates from week a an b.


Anyway..... Instead of running around im saving up for a new bike, cause the only bike we got is my dads and its too high for me. But im planning to increase the distance i run on saturdays cause im gonna join my friend who does SRLA (students run Los Angeles) where they just did the L.A. Marathon... 26.2 miles daaayyuuummnn. If I tried doing 26.2 miles right now... no way I would finish. After 10-15 miles Ill prolly just die.

i workout too .. i have weight benches and all at home .. i'll do some weight lifting to tone up my arms and abs .. i do crunches, push ups, and i run ..

I don't really work out... I do crunches and I run. That's basically it.

Hhahas so okay, Seon Ho, if you had a punching bag (which you probably might have anyways), you would imagine it was someone you hate, and you'd punch them? Add for your girlfriend, trying to impress her, eh? You have a girlfriend, eh? Aww lol. And also for the people you hate, you try to build up your muscles and hope to get all strong and muscly so that you can someday beat up the people you hate? LoL jk... Quite intimidating and intriguing =P

isn't there 2 muscles in ur arms? bicep and triceps....yea i think so. lol, yea, when i flex, u can c a "distinct" line as well, but it's not very big

Have you ever seen those hardcore volleyball players? their legs are HUGE! it's kinda gross. mostly because when they play, their in a "wall-sit" sorta position. omg, i played volleyball for 3 hours once, it hurts sooooo bad afterwards! i'm not use 2 it @ all!

I dont work out i just wanted to write a reply i guess if i was to work out i would do ... Sit Ups For abs

how long does it take to make abs appear? and what's the best exercise for it?

It depends on how much fat you got. If your naturally skinny to the bone you either alrdy got abs or it shouldnt take that long maybe 4-5 months if you do situps everyday increasing it as you get stronger.

Using weights also helps... and adding protein supplements, good sleep, and diet.

But if your into sports... tennis and kayacking or both good things to do. They excercise the abs tremendously.

Ack, i just started...

Tennis? i thought you used ur arm and legs for tennis...lol

havent had the chance to work out at a gym lately, but i have a system at home that works pretty well. i do cycles where one cycle is 80 crunches, 25 pushups, 10 curls (at 30 lbs), and 10 fly-thingies on a machine ive got. that way i'm alternating muscles so i don't need to take rests and i can just repeat the cycle straight through five times. i try to workout 4-5 times a week and up each workout each week (90 crunches, 30 pushups, etc.). everybody tells me that the best way to increase muscle mass is to increase weight... it's a good tip to go by

actually to tell you the truth abs don't appear just from doing stomach exercises like situps or crunches. those exercises DO define your muscles but those muscles are lying beneath a layer of fat. if you can't see your abs, chances are you need to lose weight first (of course, working out is a good way to do that ) and then you'll get your abs. the main thing is getting rid of the fat layer

I used to work out at this Recreation Hall at my school, mostly on the treadmill to get a good heart workout, but then I stopped going because I had too much studying to do. Then when my time freed up, I still didn't go because I was discouraged; it smells like armpit there.

So then, are there any specific exercises you can do at home that'll burn that layer of fat like that *snap*?

everyweek... I like doing squats but i do alot of exercises... the most hated workout is preacher curls...

Yeah, me want to be big huge strong man

Wee little man weak to me!

Yeah, I do some various exersises, but life is too short to live in a gym
