MIT did a study on the most famous Canadians. #1 was.....Avril Lavigne (I think their study is flawed just a tad) -- (link) - Beaker Mar 17, 10:32 10

(sorry, had a meeting) Gym follow-ups from B2 - ty97 Mar 17, 10:23 41
- I'm with Meg and start with the first step as in start with walking - JD Mar 17, 10:50 1
  - In NYC, is that particularly feasible? It seems like the congestion would be disruptive. -- nm - David Mar 17, 10:53
- Get tours of a few gyms, and pick the one that's cheap and has a fat old person on the treadmill. -- nm - Ender Mar 17, 10:46
- Don't go to a Gold's or an Atlas or the like, and you'll be fine. - Reagen Mar 17, 10:34 1
  - Compared to the gay gyms of DC/NYC these are much preferred if you don't want to be gawked atFYI. -- nm - MDH Mar 17, 10:41
- also, I highly recommend one with a Sauna. - groiny Mar 17, 10:33 10
  - What do you weigh now? -- nm - David Mar 17, 10:34 9
    - keep in mind, my neck problem kept me out of the gym for 2 1/2 months, I just started back again last week. nm -- nm - groiny Mar 17, 10:36

        yeah, I have a pretty good idea of what I can eat from where, and a pretty close calorie count as well. - groiny Mar 17, 10:42 5
        
        It's funny in that I thought I knew when I was eating healthy but the precise numbers changed my opinion. - David Mar 17, 10:46 4
        
        yes, this is why I do not eat anything that is deep fried. - groiny Mar 17, 10:48
        
        This. Turkey burger...not better. The steak thing surprised me too, more often than not one of the better meals to choose -- nm - oblique Mar 17, 10:48 2
        
        Yup, a sirloin steak is frequently sub-400 calories, even at the least healthy places. - David Mar 17, 10:52
        
        usually it is not the food itself that is the problem, it is the preperation / condiments. nm -- nm - groiny Mar 17, 10:49

    - what kind of exercises does someone do at a gay gym? -- nm - groiny Mar 17, 10:50 1
      - It's cute you think I'm making this up. DC/NYC/San Fran etc have gyms and gym chains that are pretty much gay only. i.e. here's one in NYC -- (link) - MDH Mar 17, 10:55 [Image]
  - Agreed. We belong to the YMCA - the diversity there is amazing. - kelly Mar 17, 10:47
- I've got the same situation with running. Can't run worth sh*t. Like you, it feels like asthma, but the docs disagree. - Mop (205 lbs) Mar 17, 10:26 4
  - You have to condition your lungs just like anything else. - Reagen Mar 17, 10:33

- oh, and I have no office, I work from home -- nm - ty97 Mar 17, 10:25
- I can't run anymore either, and unless it is a meat market, most people don't pay attention. - groiny Mar 17, 10:25 7
  - Everyone is staring at me always, just waiting for the moment to laugh and mock me. - ty97 Mar 17, 10:26 6
    - It's sounding like you just hate being around people. Which living in NYC sounds like something you are going to have to learn to get over - con_carne Mar 17, 10:43
    - the fact that you are there, trying to improve yourself, gives you something in common with them. - groiny Mar 17, 10:28 4
      - Yup, people have very little contact at most gyms. - David Mar 17, 10:29 3
        
        I have been to a few of those too. nm -- nm - groiny Mar 17, 10:31 2
        
        Of course but it's easy to find out which gyms are like that. - David Mar 17, 10:33
