Title: Have you ever skipped doing DB work because
Post by: danielson on December 05, 2008, 04:21:22 PM
You didn't want to take a chance you would smash your MP3 player or more importantly your cell phone? I hate how you have to put those heavy DBs on your legs only inches away from your pockets. Sometimes it's not worth the risk for me, I just stick to barbells. If I smashed my MP3 player I could probably manage to make it through my workout and buy another one. But if I smashed my cell phone I would have to go straight to AT&T and get a new one and skip the rest of the workout. Is the reward worth the risk?

Why would anyone want to be hardcore? Are you stuck in the 80's or something? Go to the gym, socialize, make some calls, do a few sets, tan and leave.

Calm down we know you're not big on lifting and need diversions. Everything from the mp3 to your idea of starbucks at the gym to bowling at the gym that fascinates you. ;)

Maybe these other guys don't lift heavy enough Dumbbells to worry about breaking anything?

Skip mp3 player and cell phone instead, so that you can use DB's. Ever thought of that?

That's crazy talk. The only reason I own an MP3 player is to use it in the gym. And no workout is worth missing an important phone call.

I have honestly skipped doing DBs because I didn't want to smash my devices. I know you don't workout(or you would have posted a pic), so you don't have that problem.

lol, i know this is just a joke thread, so i try a funny advice that will solve all your problems:
Go to the gym nude, only with a jockstrap. i bet the other guys will be happy.


Me personally, i do not bring anything that relies on electricity with me to the gym. I leave my cell phone and mp3 player at home. This way i do not have to think about them and am totally HARDCORE.  ::)

Don't insult danielson. He is a very sensitive metro guy who has a taste for the finer things in life like vicodin and being a late thirty something hipster bar rat who is approaching midlife crisis.

From the sounds of it, you needn't worry, as I highly doubt the little wrist and ankle weights you use will be any kind of threat to your electronic devices.

working out with i-pods...my word ::) i suppose you also wear the trendy slim pants and a blue tooth device when working out eh?;)
