^^^ I'm not a huge fan of running outside at night. Too many people on the sidewalks to run uninhibited...too many cars on the road for me to feel safe...the running trails go through Rock Creek Park which gives me the heeby jeebies at night (too many murders and deer)

^^ Just got home.

*Looks at stomach and thinks "it's not big enough to rest a beer on as I sit on the couch". Wonders if this is a good thing or not*

Run with a gun. Don't have to worry about murder and might come home with venison.

No. Stay home and get fat.

You're either getting fitter or getting fatter.

There is no middle ground.

Unless you're running a fever, snotting and coughing or puking and shitting all over the place, or fresh out of surgery the answer is yes.

Yeah, I used to go to LA Fitness. I stopped during the pandemic.


Working on the home gym now, and i doubt I'll ever go back to a gym. The basketball courts and pools were nice tho

Ours got rid of the basketball court at the end of August. Can't say I was super disappointed, but I never used it; they turned it into a power lifting room that really opened up some space etc. Read online that some clubs would close their courts early or not allow it after 9pm, cause there would inevitably be fights etc. Phill told me most only have 3 swimming lanes, ours has 4, but the 2 middle are kinda more narrow. Said our sauna is bigger than most clubs too. Can't see how that is possible...after 7 ppl some ppl just stand up

the apartment I stayed in the first year I moved back to NC had an indoor basketball court. I loved it. That was when I was unemployed/yanging so I would go like 10 am a couple days a week and always had it to myself. They also turned it into a fitness room around the time I moved out.

I joined planet fitness for a bit after that but just could never get into the habit of going. I'd go for 1-2 hour walks at night a few days a week and that ended up being a more reliable source of exercise, and then I installed a basketball goal at my house and now that's mostly how I get exercise.

I do wish I did more strength training though. Probably in the next year or two I'll try to clear some room for a home gym. My son has some friends who are starting to lift weights so I think I could get him to take an interest too

I had a decent home gym before, but in a tiny apt it sucked

Powerblocks up to 90# each, squat rack with 400# of plates, rowing machine and bike trainer

Just getting back into lifting makes me realize how fucked my shoulders are

[Edited on November 11, 2025 at 10:46 PM. Reason : And my hips suck cause i can't go deep on squats]

This is my setup in the storage room of my basement:






----------------------------------------

Just finished today's gym workout:

3 Sets of squats.
3 Sets of toe raises
3 Sets of deadlifts
3 Sets of pullups
3 Sets of weighted dips

I'll go run later on today when it warms up a bit.

[Edited on November 12, 2025 at 7:17 AM. Reason : Still haven't been to an actual gym since I built this in my house.]

Very nice. I had almost same rack. Started with those dumbbells but found them too limiting after a few months
