I hate the gym I joined. Costs $13 a fortnight to be a member, though I hardly even use it. But it costs $11 to quit so I can't be bothered doing that.

Wo is me!

I'm so glad I live about a block away from an extremely beautiful park. [Wink]

40 regular push-ups
30 Diamond Push-ups
20 Spider Push-ups (arms spread out a bit more.)
10 Fist push-ups
I do that like 9 or 10 times plus dumbells and stuff like that.
Do that and some sit-ups and you'll be in good shape.

Ow. I'm sore from just reading about that many push-ups. [Angst]

Like getting bulging muscles would be overkill if I wanted to beat people up id learn kung fu.
This is the second time in this thread you've mentioned you're worried about getting 'bulging' muscles. It's not as if you go to the gym and walk out an hour later with huge biceps. It's unbelievably hard (from both a nutrition and weightlifting standpoint) to get those muscles that you see in magazines. And as long as you don't significantly up your caloric intake you can lift for an hour a day and not get any bigger. It takes fuel to build lean muscle mass, and I seriously doubt two days a week in the gym are gonna make you huge.

In short, wipe from your mind the thought that you might get too big. Watch your diet, move around more and lift some weights and you'll improve the way you look in a few weeks. It's really quite simple.

Rest easy Blayne, I doubt "bulging muscles" are in the cards for you.

You get "bulging muscles" from increasing the weight you lift as quickly as possible.

Y'know, the look I want is Nitz from Undergrads, not Cal, not Gimpy, but... Nitz. Just without the freshman 15.

Since nobody else has said it: That is a nice shirt. (The red one, I can't really tell what's on the t-shirt.) Who cares about getting in shape when you can just wear a cool shirt instead?

When a guy is in shape, he can choose to not wear shirts. [Wink]

Me? hehehe. I'm still *wishing* I'll be able to have chiseled muscles. Someday I want abs of steel... So when I workout I always push the ab exercises.

I'm in a wieght training class and I've heard some interesting things. The teacher said that muscles get bored doing the same thing over and over. And he also said that if you don't push your muscles to the point of failure, they wont build as much.
