I am stuck behind a computer all day. I don’t have time at lunch to hit the gym. What I did recently has helped my day go by a little faster and gives me a chance for a little strength conditioning while at work. I use a program called Post-It Notes Lite (free program). I make a note and set an alarm to go off every hour. When it goes off, I stop what I am doing and do ten pushups, 10-20 crunches, and try to take a fast-paced walk to the breakroom or bathroom. By the end of the day I get in about 80 pushups and 80-100 crunches. I am going to find some new baoding balls this weekend.

Does anyone else do things like this?

I jog at lunchtimes and use Gripmaster all day. If you like you can “secretly” do curls with a resistance rope! :smiley:

Actually, alot of the people I work with know I do Wing Chun (Its what happens when you start to do Chi Sau with ethe guy across from you, he takes the same class I do!). I normally just find an empty office or room somwhere during lunch and do some drills. I get a lot of wierd looks but everyone here leaves me alone.

Actually what the wise Delicate sound siad reminded me, I also do isometric excescises in my cube on an off moment. It helps.

Wise Delicate Sound

Tell that to SifuAbel!

I like to do pull ups on out HUGE college doorframes. Good for grip too.

Tell that to SifuAbel!

Are like in love with SifuAbel or what? So he doesn’t like you, get on with your life already.

Wow Paul - I see your humour radar is sky high on this one. You really think I give a sh!t what he thinks? Seriously?

And why are you following me around this forum - insinuating that I’m in love with Sifu Abel

Get on with your life already

See above. :smiley:

[This quoting could catch on:rolleyes:]

Yep, I seriously do. Why keep bringing it up otherwise? It will be okay though, keep your chin up little trooper.

If making one post on a thread that was at the top is following you around, then I guess that’s what I’m doing. (two posts now).

LOL!!

Why keep bringing it up otherwise

Mmm - using it once as an example of my lack of wisdom. Yep - that’s a big deal.

keep your chin up little trooper

Wow - Condescending AND arrogant. Wow - you Californians are really impressing me these days :smiley:

In theory, as a car-loving soccer player, you should get my approval, but you’re battling hard against it. Keep your chin up little trooper - you’ll make it through.

BTW: Are you in any way affiliated with SA? - you seem more bothered about this that me. Just curious :confused:

Wow - Condescending AND arrogant. Wow - you Californians are really impressing me these days

Yep, sounds about right, have we met?

11

Can’t say we have. Who needs to anyhow? - we’re mature enough to have a petty argument 5000 miles apart. :smiley:

It’s been a pleasure wasting cyber space with you.

12

Hahaha!! Just giving you a hard time. Couldn’t help it. :smiley:

13

It’s OK. But seriously - SoCal guys seem to have it in for me :smiley:

Nice despair.com quote.

14

Really, cause I live in Northern California Maybe the whole state has it in for you.

I like my quote but I’m starting to tire of it.

15

Maybe they’re jealous [its one of the few US States that I ain’t properly visited] :smiley:

I love despair.com. A particular favourite is:

LONELYNESS: You’re not alone in battling with lonelyness - but yet you are alone. So very, very alone.

Anyway - I’m a Broncos fan, so I guess the whole hatred thing is to be expected. Walking thru LA airport with a Broncos shirt on got me a few looks from white-boy nutters in Fred Durst caps with baggy-assed jeans :smiley:

Then consider yourself quoted, Dragon friend :slight_smile:

?

I’m just surprised nobody has said “Deskercise” yet.

Now I know how world wars start. It is amusing how a thread about personal training habits turned in to a territorial battle. That’s what I love about this forum.

I will now take the time to quote Eric Wright: “Don’t quote me boy 'cause I ain’t said sh!t”

…the boys in the hood are always hard…come talking that trash we’ll…nevermind. Rock on brothers!

You laughin’ at me you Texan punk [wild crazy staring..] :stuck_out_tongue:

Yeah I know - sad isn’t it. Ah well…
