All you need to do is put the machine with weighty things on too heavy a setting, and do about 2 repetitions on it. Do not forget the facial muscles, make sure to look like you find it very heavy. Then stand around for like 20 minutes, send a few snapchats, and switch machines.

/sarcasm

This is literally what a guy in the university gym was just doing. Normally I don’t get to witness this behaviour, because I prefer going at quiet moments. I’m not saying I’m good at this whole exercising thing, but this doesn’t seem like the right method. (Correct me if I’m wrong)

Anyhow, have this Renault Floride for your time, because I’m sure you have something better to do than listen to a fat-ish guy ramble about exercising. And because the sun is finally shining in the Netherlands.

Nothing wrong with heavy singles, doubles and triples as long as you understand your training programming and plan.

Came here for the Caravelle. What is this gym thing you’re talking about? Sports needs an element of competition! And you’re right about the weather so get sporty outside!!!

Now I need some Pizza.

Inklaring is afgerond, invoerrechten betaald. Volgende week ophalen!

Oh damn. Thanks for reminding me of my gym membership...

Haven’t been there in ages. But as long as I’m no complete slob I don’t feel too bad haha.

He’s doing it exactly right if he wants to pull something and be out for weeks.

Haha, you’re welcome!

I hadn’t been for like half a year either before last week. I didn’t even know they moved the damn gym within the sports centre, so I spend a good few minutes looking for it last time I went.

The Caravelle is gorgeous, Renault really needs a new convertible.

The gym thing is a place with torture machines, big guys showing off their muscles, fat guys and women in yoga pants. ;-)

I agree that sports need an element of competition, however, having never really been a sporty type, and having never really done a sport, I would probably have the skill level of a 5 year old in most sports....

Geweldig! Welke dag had je in gedachten?

The weirdest gym behavior I’ve ever seen was some guy benching 135...comprised of nothing but 5lb weights. He actually scoured the gym to find all the 5lb weights instead of just using two 45's.

And no, he wasn’t adding 5lbs to each side after each set. He started and finished with a collection of 5's.

Seems like he didn’t feel like doing any more math than straight forward counting...

....weight dispersion can change the way it strains the muscle tissue.....

try overhead squatting 150lbs = easyville

try overhead squatting a 150lbs medicine ball = oh God I’m going to die

Nothing wrong with women in yoga pants. Well... Most of the time that is.

Having the skills of a 5 year old is a huge advantage. Imagine what progress you’ll make from there! ;-)

Donderdag ochtend?

Exactly, and seeing the age-group that is generally present in the university gym, you won’t hear me complaining about that. ;-)

Well, that’s true. Even going from the level of a 5 year old to that of a 10 year old will be a giant leap.

Hmm, donderdag ochtend heb ik een project waar ik bij moet zijn. Dus dan zou het helaas niet lukken om mee te gaan.

Nee, helaas ook niet. Je hebt precies de dag gekozen dat ik helemaal niet kan, haha. Woensdag of vrijdag was prima geweest. Maar ik wil niet voor een al te grote verstoring in je planning zorgen, dus als het niet lukt, jammer maar helaas.

Haha, geen verstoring hoor. Woensdag kan wellicht ook, en dinsdag?
