King of Pain

[Martyr]

So I worked out for the first time in a long time the other day.
At first, I thought that it was bad. Kinda cramped. Kinda painful.

But today I was destroyed. EVERYTHING hurts when I try to move. I feel like an old man. I feel like I've got arthitis or something. It hurts to type on this keyboard. OW! OW! OW! OW!

Body Builders must live pointless lives, all working out and getting strong muscles just so they're too torn up to ever use them. Dudes prolly gotta stop working out for a month before they can lift 40 pound boxes.

No, seriously, I didn't shave because I'm afraid of the unbearable pain of lifting my arms that high, and don't want to slash my face open like Freddy Krueger.

Have you ever felt like Freddy Krueger?

What's been the most painful thing you've gotten yourself into lately?
Preferably, this is your fault. Why is it your fault? Why would you do this horrible thing to yourself?

I feel your pain man, in my new semester of gym we were doing fitness. And this was br00tal fitness, plus it was the first time any of us had worked out in ages. AGES I SAY!

The next day, my butt hurt so bad I don't even think it was mine anymore. The saying between me and my friends was "I got raped by pilates."

I had the dumb idea to do fifty situps without really being capable of doing say, fifteen? That was a while back though. i've learned from that.

I did something that wasn't so bad, but it still sucked. I can't remember what.

I was in a hurry to do something at work so I climbed up the front of the wharehouse racking, now this is not only ill-advised but against health and safety law thus rendering me on my own if severely injured I signed a contract that agreed I wouldn't do stuff like this (in fact I do this all the time and most managers don't care because they know I'll get the job done and not complain if it hurts). I was however rushing and had to step on a cardboard box containing some stock I knew it was a bad idea as soon as I did it and reached for the spar that would have allowed myself to pull higher up and to a safe point on the racking I slipped and fell. I landed awkquardly I fell on to a builders pallet of electrical returns (builders pallets often called boards are 4ft square boards of wood about half a foot deep often carried around by fork lift trucks) My ass cheek was sore from that but in my ass pocket had been a bunch of keys and a pair of tweezers, I landed on them and they dug in to my ass to pierce the flesh and leave me with a few scars....you lot are the first to know aside from work mates (who I could not hide the limp back down the shopfloor to) who know about it. If you think however I learnt my lesson on the health and safety of climbing up the racking you'd be wrong, I got up from that fall and immediately went straight back up the racking to the shelf I needed.

When working out and doing sit-ups or press-ups you should do as many as you can in a session on one day and then the next day push for just one more, and keep on like that untill you can do loads. Always push for just one more because that last one is the hardest and the one that helps make you fitter.

The only time Ive felt that bad was after a 14km Duke of Edinburgh walk. The next day I could hardly move, but I had to get up and go to school. It was awful

My next walk will be even longer, and spread over TWO DAYS meaning I have to SLEEP outside. Oh god Im dreading it, and then it'd be school the next day xD

I died two days ago. It was kinda painful I guess.

If you work out everyday you won't ache like that. It's only doing it occasionally that will make you ache. If you do it everyday your body will get used to it. An yeah, bodybuilders are rubbish. They seem to misunderstand the concept of exercising. It's to be fit an healthy, which their not. I can't think of any pain I've inflicted on myself recently.

In December I had my shoulder dislocated during snowboarding, this is definately the most painful thing I have experienced in my life.

It was my fault I guess, just a miscalculation of making a turn.

So I fell. I was just lying there, face in the snow, unable to get up, I just couldn't move without bursting in pain. Eventually my friends and some friendly people got me on my feet. A few phone calls later a piste-preparation vehicle arrived to pick me up and drove me down the mountain where an ambulance was waiting for me. As soon as those guys tried to place me in their ambulance, they said I'd better travel by helicopter because the roads were so bumpy I could faint of pain and make things worse by unwanted movement.

All this time I was biting on my glove to keep myself from breaking down mentally.

Eventually the helicopter arrived, doctor gave me morphine, and up I went.

In the hospital the doctors popped back my arm, which felt soooo nasty, even though I was high on morphine. It still gives me chills down my spine whenever I think of it.

Tomorrow I'm going to France, on another snowboarding-holiday. The doctor said there's a chance of 75% it'll happen to me again sometime this year, but that won't keep me from snowboarding. I'll have to be careful though.

Body builders are weird. Those freaky bodies aren't actually good for anything. They look gross.

Anyway, I hurt my arm getting a 640 or something in the home run contest on Wii Baseball.

Anaisa's right, here. Start off small and build your way to a normal work out. Also, don't forget to stretch and warm up properly. Your muscles will thank you later. And yeah, bodybuilders are strange to me. Just because human beings are able to look like that doesn't mean that is the ultimate in human form.

Aww, you're cute. Let's get married.

I take aching as a sign that I exercised really hard the day before

[Misfit]

I ran a mile a few weeks ago. And then I died the next day. Now I'm back and I've learned from my mistakes. Next time I'll WALK. >:o

[Bunny]

Or, and I know this might sound crazy but just follow me for a second. Get a car! Even better you could just sit in a comfortable chair for the rest of your life.

Running? Pfft. That's for runners.

I can't drive a car in a gym.

Having three jobs in the past week make me feel so tired now that it is weekend. I spent the whole morrning asleep. Work simply ruins every limb in you.
