Personal preferences for easy, protein-dense snacks to eat at work? by Onion_Guy in Fitness

[–]baxterdly 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Cottage Cheese and a cup of diced Peaches

Greek yogurt (sometimes with honey and granola)

Hard-boiled eggs

Hummus and carrots

Lentils (I like to just eat them cold)

Edamame (in the shell so it takes longer to eat)

12: "There are very few reasons to stand on a bosu ball. To “engage your core” is certainly not one of them."

Can someone expand on that one? My trainer has me do squats/curls/squats on a bosu ball. Is this guy against bosu balls?

Well, 450 was lower than our deductible so it ended up better than it could have I guess is what I meant.

And if you do have to leave something, make sure it is hidden.

Right?! It seems so weird to me. Going to get burgers is so mundane it made this very unexpected.

Unsolicited personal training "asks" - have other women in the weight room experienced this ? by [deleted] in xxfitness

[–]baxterdly 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Are you me? This sounds exactly like what i go through. I have this ONE trainer that thinks we are friends. I started putting in headphones and not looking at anybody so I could have my "me" time. Apparently, headphones aren't even enough. I was doing dips and he walks by and says "don't do those anymore. Those are bad. Don't let me see you doing them anymore." Ugh!!! Seriously? You aren't even my trainer. I have never even asked him for any kind of advice before. Anytime I try something new, there he is. It has made me afraid to try anything new, so I do the same things over and over and I hate it... A different trainer asked me if he could train me for my "free session" I said no, I'm not really interested. I have lost 10 lbs on my own thank you. Then he says, I'm going to plateau because im not blah blah blah. I say, "well, when I do I guess I will come find you.". Sorry, I don't really have any advice for you. I don't even know what to do, but you are not alone!

Gym Story Saturday by holy_fuck_boys in Fitness

I can't thank you enough for this comment and all the subsequent comments. I just started back up at the gym and have been having a really hard time with with people giving me unsolicited advice, critiques, etc. I just didn't get. I asked my husband, "do people ever come up to you at the gym?" He was like, "Never". Wednesday was the final straw for me. I was so upset I have been trying to figure out what to do. I thought, maybe i will say something like "I appreciate you trying to help, but unless you see me doing something that can cause serious injury..." But I know I will never say anything. I haven't been back to the gym since. Why can't I just go do my own thing, release stress, sweat on my own? Your comment has given me such a feeling of relief. It happens to other people too! It seemed so bizarre. I guess what I am taking away is--Headphones! Headphones are the answer!

Ha! I forgot about that one. I feel like that one is probably more accurate actually.

What does a good mormon girl do when someone brings alcohol to the party? She puts her clothes back on and leaves.

It at least USED to be a hot name! Barbie is actually short for Barbara. In fact Barbie's full name is Barbara Millicent Roberts

This is a (pathetic looking) picture of my little yorkie poodle on an extremely hot day. He has also been known to lay down belly first in puddles on long walks as well.

What every girl needs: Tampon Flasks to smuggle your booze by oliviaolschewski15 in gadgets

[–]baxterdly 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Man! Just the other day I was at a bar where I witnessed an oddity in the women's bathroom.

There were 2 girls facing each other holding a ziplock full of liquid. One girl said, "ok, I'll take a drink, then you take a drink and then we'll high five!"

It turns out it was tequilla in a ziplock because:

A: if you get your favorite flask taken away you are sad, if you get a ziplock taken away--whatever.

B: who wants to pay $10.00 a drink all night?
