Does anyone think there is the odd case where child and parent are simply too "different" / clash too often? I can live with my mum, but we don't see eye to eye majority of the time. I'm not saying I'd count as one of the above cases, but yeah no love will be lost when I move out.

Right, because everyone that goes to the gym is obviously on hormones, has a massive ego and is a zealot about training and diet. It was never said that you need the gym to be healthy. It's a tool / option, just like heaps of other things. If your not keen on it, what right do you have to take...

Reread my post :] As far as all the muscley dudes go, no one will care what you're doing. They arn't there for you.

I don't think you'll be very successful if you're doing it for someone else. Have to want it for you. Also, stuff your ex, plenty of fish in the sea?

rgbdsfljyvdbfldsgfbvdskfgvdf That is such lies. Weights are extraordinarily beneficial, to everyone. Women tend to avoid them because they think they'll get big or bulky, which is absolute ass. When you have the T levels of a dude, you'll develop like a dude. Please don't write weights off...

Pics? :] Teacher at my highschool won the Mr Australia I think... he definately won something.

Have you actually gone in and said that you want the same rate as other people? I don't mean asking, I mean telling them that you know x, y and z have weekly fees of 15 and that you won't tolerate being asked to pay 35? If all else fails ask to speak to the gym owner as well, politely explain...

Never met my dad, personally. But my Aunt just had her husband walk out on her basically... they have a one year old and I think the situation is pretty shit. Moreso the way he went about it. Good luck with whatever happens mate.

So find another gym. If your at uni, does your campus have a gym? Any tafes nearby that might? Or just find a smaller local gym... plenty of options :]

I would decline. My mum rang me the other day telling me her workmate could get me 14.95 a week. I like my uni gym so I declined, but honestly, your getting boned. Either go in and haggle, and get it down to a level you're happy with, or find another gym. There should be at least a few gyms...

I would have done a gap year to travel, but I'm povo. However I don't regret going straight to uni... loving it. :]

That is probably one of the best goals I've ever heard. Good luck to you with all of them, but most of all that one.

The 150 on deads I can do for a couple reps (2-3). I'm alright at the pull it's my grip that sometimes gives me problems. Might end up getting some grippers or something if it becomes a problem with heavier weight but so far it hasn't. Pull ups I hear you on... my uni gym is closed on holidays...

My goals are at the bottom of the first post. :] If you want me to be more specific then for the upcoming semester these are my goals: Get to a (reasonably lean) 100kg. Squat 200 for reps (currently on 150) Bench 100 or more for reps (currently on 80 or something) Deadlift 200+ for reps...

I havn't gone for a run in a fair while, but with weights my nose clears right up and stays cleared for a pretty long while after I'm done. Also leaves me really warm, I'll get out of the shower and still be sweating sometimes :/

Exercising in the cold tends to clear up any sniffles I have, come to think of it.

You make me happy <3.

There are other gyms, you know :] As far as being too cold/rainy/hot... excuses really. Heat is the one case where I'd run later in the day (duskish) but I'd still train.

If this thread has been done before, speak up and I'll delete :] Just wondering what peoples goals are. Generally most peeps step into the gym or start exercising in general with the aim of achieving something, whether it's to lose 10kg, increase their lifts or build up some muscle etc. I...

Like some kind of phallic Mr Ed? Awesome.
