šŸ‹ļøā€ā™€ļø I havenā€™t posted in off-topic for awhile, so thought Iā€™d start a random convo! Whatā€™s your favourite type of exercise (even if you donā€™t do it regularly)? Walking? Running? Spamming refresh in PVP on Gems of War? I lovvvve weight lifting. Gotta get dem gains! I hate running though so I do ride my bike to work every day (about 30 mins one way) and do HIIT cardio as well. ---

My favorite is rowing and push-ups. ---

I like walking a lot. Not much else to it. Sucks in the winter though. ---

Bike riding, pull ups, planks mostly. Basically stuff I can do at home or on the go. Helps get around my tendency to flake out on going to the gym. ---

I just moved to a new Suburb in November and itā€™s been lovely walking around in summer at night around 8 pm - itā€™s a very weird residential area unlock others in Melbourne. Everyone has quirky townhouses built in odd shapes. ---

What is that like? Iā€™ve heard about it but never understood how it is different to other yoga. ---

I love bike riding (it helps that Melbourne is a really good city for bikes), but I have a bad habit of getting my bike stolen, so currently I donā€™t have one. Weights I like, dead lifts, floor press, etc. Also planks and push ups. I cannot, no matter how hard I try, do a pull up, I just canā€™t seem to lift my own body mass with those particular muscle groups, itā€™s really annoying. I am a really poor runner though, Iā€™m fine on a treadmill but I struggle running around the city. ---

I donā€™t get much exerciseā€¦ I direct a Barbershop Chorus on Tuesday nights for 3 hours and I direct Handbells and Church Choir on Wednesday for 2 and 1/2 hours. My conducting is very expressive so I count that as a solid 5 hours of cardio a week! However, the best exercise I ever got was that one family trip to Las Vegas when I was a kid. My sister and I spent the whole week in the arcade at Circus Circus playing this game: ![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex019/uploads/gemsofwar/original/3X/3/4/3442d0ea5938a2d4bdd003f28054c9a00b93cfde.jpg) Wish I could find one of those nowā€¦ šŸ¤” ---

> [@Sin\_Ogaris](#): > > I just canā€™t seem to lift my own body mass with those particular muscle groups, Have you tried the assisted pull up machines at gyms? I have this problem too. Itā€™s frustrating because I know I am quite strong but I am also very tall with long limbs so I have extra weight to lift, also being female Iā€™m naturally weaker! Melbourne is great for riding. Deadlifts are also my favourite, though I can only do half a straight leg deadlift. I often struggle with lower body workouts because my back gets sore too easily as I only have an adjustable dumb bell set at home. ā˜¹ > [@Ashasekayi](#): > > [https://i.pinimg.com/originals/eb/15/57/eb15579c2b5a738eac8700668373fb4a.jpg](https://i.pinimg.com/originals/eb/15/57/eb15579c2b5a738eac8700668373fb4a.jpg)(image larger than 3072KB) You would probably see me doing this at clubs/bars anyway šŸ˜‰ You could try Just Dance @efh313? ---

I havenā€™t done it in a few years, but I used to love to ice skate (weird hobby for Australia I know). Horse Riding is also good but I live in the city so I have too far to travel to go horse riding now days. ---

I play basketball regularly and do a little cardio to stay in shape for it. Used to play soccer in the summers, but it was getting too hard on my body so I gave it up a couple years ago. In the winters, I shovel snow. ---

> [@Cyrup](#): > > Have you tried the assisted pull up machines at gyms? Yeah, I use them occasionally, my PT gets me to do stuff to try and improve my strength there because letā€™s face it, if I happen to be in a situation where I am falling off a building and happen to catch myself on a balcony ledge or whatever, being able to pull myself back up would be quite useful. > [@Nimhain](#): > > I havenā€™t done it in a few years, but I used to love to ice skate (weird hobby for Australia I know). Iā€™ve gone to Docklands once, it was a lot of fun (albeit painful initially). My favourite sport to watch is Ice Hockey as well so ice skating has always been interesting to me. > [@Nimhain](#): > > Horse Riding is also good but I live in the city so I have too far to travel to go horse riding now days. Buy a horse and ride it in the city, be a modern day cowgirl (pretty sure you are female, apologies if not). ---

Skating šŸ¤—I used to play hockey, but my knees/back/shoulder/neck objected at various times. Still got my gear, will play again. Will be in ā€˜old-timersā€™ league, but crease crashers WILL be ā€˜talked toā€™. šŸ¤Ø (goalies are all a bit mad šŸ™ƒ) šŸ”Ø šŸ§  ---
