Anyone got a hobby .. or is that what computer games are for?

I've seen so many injury themselves with the Olympic weight lifting cardio sessions. They try to get the number and time, but forget form.

I might try some of the body weight crossfit stuff, but I am working towards the gymnastic workout program.

I agree, it's easy to get injured if rushing through a series of exercises, it's most important to get your form down before increasing weight too. Many sadly don't follow that simple rule.

I had an argument with a personal trainer at a gym once. He asked what exercises I wanted to do.

I said I'll start off with the treadmill, crosstrainer, and the bikes. But I won't do the rowing machine because I hate it.

He said, "Okay, but I'll schedule you 10 minutes on the rower."

"No, I won't do the rower. I hate it and won't do it."

"Alright, but I think you'll benefit from 5 minutes, at least on the rower, and you'll get used to it."

"What part of 'not doing the rower' isn't clear to you?"

I ended up telling him to go and bug someone else and send me another personal trainer who will listen to the person paying the bills.
