Hey! Distance runners!

[torchthebitch]

You're fucked!

 

[islandman]

Did they finally outlaw running distances?

 

[torchthebitch]

Fitness fanatics should do “just one or a few” marathons or full-distance triathlons, say the cardiologists, because over-exerting the heart for years can lead to long-term damage.

Amazing how much research they had to do to figure out something I determined from my sofa.

 

[islandman]

This is why I only do half-marathons.

 

[torchthebitch]

I always did full Marathons. Then they changed the name to Snickers

 

[islandman]

I can't run anymore. Used to do long runs every other morning, but then developed horrible shin-splits. After six months of physical therapy, it was decided that my gait was the culprit.

I did not fancy having to re-learn how to run. Much easier to buy a bicycle and pedal.

 

[torchthebitch]

Elliptical or cross trainers are my prefered machine due to ankle, knee and hip problems. I have a dog. I walk a lot.

 

[islandman]

I "rescued" a treadmill from a neighbor with the thought that as the weather got cold, I'd put the pup on it and she'd get a long walk/run in the comfort of a warm basement.

Turns out she's not a fan of it. Now it's used to stack boxes atop.

That is unusual. Normally they act as a clothes-horse.

I wonder if by 'rigorous physical activity' they also include daily, sustained/multiple sexual activity?

Coz that would not do.

True, but in this instance, there are more boxes than clothes in the basement.

I got a rower.
Surprise, surprise - I actually use it!
I love it way more than all those other excercise machines, and as it's a cross-trainer, I am happy with the results I am getting.

I love the rowing machine but I use my upper body more than anything else.


Also, if you see me running these days you'd best start running too because something's after me.

According to the article it should be limited to 30 to 50 minutes. So I reckon that means twenty fucks a day.

I'm confused.

You use your upper body as a substitute for the rowing machine?

How does that work? Does someone sit on your face and use your arms as the oars?

No, I meant that I have more use for my upper body. Ugh. Shut up. Nevermind.

I was doing that too, in the beginning.
Then I reset the incline, and now my legs get just as good a workout.

I can't run any more.... I have no cartilage in my left hip, and to avoid a hip replacement, I am not allowed to do high-impact sports.

 

[islandman]

Which speaks to one of the benefits of using a rowing machine, so....

I'm still confused.

That's why I use the rowing machine more than the treadmill. I thought this was a running thread. A thread about running.

I better show this to my man then.
His idea of a quickie is at least an hour and a half!
He could be doing damage to both our hearts

It was.

Now it's about wanting a man like WQ's.

Brb....heading to the gym to work on my stamina.

You're fucked!

Interesting, though it's fair to say the medicos seem to change their minds about so many things every couple of years.

 

[torchthebitch]

I bought an ex-gym Concept 2 rower from a local auction house for £250. I also got a good quality spin cycle for only £20. The cross trainers were actually going for more than you could buy the same model from the internet, and then you had to pay auctioneers commission and tax.

You want a man like mine?
I never figured you for that!
But hey! You've come to the right site, at least
