A lot of people roleplay their way through the day. They turn up in a costume and act in a way to look like something else.
Like crossfitters.

Yesterday was blue Monday, apparently the most depressing day of the year.
But you know what is depressing? The effects of living a sedentary lifestyle into your 40's and beyond.

New year's resolutioners at the gym. It's fun to see who actually does not want to be here. They're the ones who are doing one set every 15 minutes.

In your relationship are you the one who will eat anything deep fried, or anything pickled?

First gym session of the year, and unlike those memes I didn't do a triple dose of pre workout.
Only a double dose.

The toughest part of working out is not dropping the weight to do the double clap when listening to Rasputin by Boney M

I've noticed a greater frequency of individuals who talk about how isolated they feel. Society, the way it is, counts for a lot. But there's never one sole reason.
How do you begin to tell someone it's because they're a very unlikeable person?

There's a barbells 21 competition at my workplace. It's 6300 reps of barbell 21's (Lower partial 7, upper partial 7, full reps 7). Starting today until the end of October, get 6300 reps.
I have the opportunity to do something really funny.

Rest is a wierd concept, it doesn't exist in capitalism unless you're super wealthy. Hustle culture abhors rest.
But we all need it, according to Dr Emily Nagoski it's 42% of your time, over a week or a month(ish)
Do you think you take enough rest?

I think I've been insulated from people taking videos in the gym for social media due to the nature of the environment.
But it kinda feels like it's super invasive in the civilian gym environment, looking at it objectively.

"Lift this, like this so you don't hurt yourself, until it's easy. Then add more weight"
Incredible how that is rarely said.

As someone with shitty calf genetics I wish I hadn't been sleeping on Donkey Raises.
I just wish it wasn't such a wierd looking movement. The name doesn't help either.

Is Megatron in Gatorade or something? Work suddenly got a lot busier with everyone wanting a personal trainer

Being complimented on how much I've filled out is funny.
Because I'm pretty sure my shirts just shrunk in the wash.

Everyone should be doing some form of activity, even if it's light. My mother does an hour of gardening a day and it's keeping her mobility up.
Or you can just run into problem after problem after you hit 40.

Sometimes I think the pursuit of fitness has become more polarising because of desperation.
There are those who are desperate to change, but they put others off either from showcasing the effort exerted or being obnoxious.

There's 7 mins left for this client to turn up. I'm 7 minutes away to get paid for doing nothing.

Waiting for a client to turn up is great. I give them 15 mins from the start otherwise I get that hour back. No shows are still charged, because I give them up to an hour before the start to tell me if they can't make it.

The irony of me being there to witness morning gym people by being one, is not lost on me. But rest assured I have transcended labels of time in the gym, I feel like I'm always there. Like some kind of dumbbell goblin.

Morning gym people are built different. Thats not a flex, they're genuinely wierd people. A mix of dedication and desperation means you're loud and talk to everyone or you're grunting sweatily into your airpods.
