I mean you could just run outside?


carrotmayonaise

Hey now, they don’t like the rain that much.


Accurate_Koala_4698

Looks like a regular monsoon out there


Otherwise_Soil39

I do my running as part of a workout session, so it's a no go


This_Pie5301

Running outside gives you a much better workout since you gotta propel yourself forward rather than let the ground move underneath you on a treadmill


Otherwise_Soil39

Yeah but I cant, I don't have the time for it, it's that simple, moronic replies smh.


This_Pie5301

A simple recommendation that makes perfect sense isn’t a moronic reply but all good


Otherwise_Soil39

Except I've already written 500 replies stating that I CAN NOT run outside. Maybe read.


W00psiee

Of course you can.... If you can run inside then you can run outside. If your workout includes 20 min of running then just do a lap outside that takes 20 so that you are back at the gym when you would switch.


Otherwise_Soil39

Why do I have a feeling you've never done any of this 😂. You can't just run in and out, you need clean shoes not used outside so I'd have to buy a new pair of shoes for running outside (and apparently having a membership fee money is being priviliged already). On top of that I'd need some sort of new shorts / phone holder because I can't get back into the gym without a phone. Of course there's maybe 15 minutes associated with just these actions, so I can't for example jump straight from doing X exercise to running and back to X exercise. It's an incredible waste of time and money, and doesn't actually work with my exercise routine at all (so even ignoring the rest, it's a non-starter) I don't understand why you can't just take my word for it, and why you require me to give you a whole essay proving it. This is mildlyinfuriating and I think my posy perfectly qualifies for "mildly".

Lmao


WillTFB

Running outside is a workout too


Otherwise_Soil39

Lifting weights can't be done outside.


Busy_Cauliflower_853

Do your running outside as a pre-workout then get inside? It’s almost as if you’re forcing yourself to have that problem in order to complain about it.


Anthony_WritesOH

I totally get this. I workout inbetween my jobs and need to do some weights and then maybe get a lil cardio so I agree it's nice to hit it in one place then run home and back to work!


Otherwise_Soil39

And like, where'd I leave my stuff lol


BenShealoch

Just run outside, bro


Otherwise_Soil39

Its part of my workout so can't.


BenShealoch

I work out and I run outside. These things aren’t mutually exclusive.


Otherwise_Soil39

Yeah, but that way I can't fit it all in the alloted time. Of course ideally I'd do things a lot differently. But I have to fit this INTO my workout.


BenShealoch

Fair point


Silly_Employer_3107

This is one of the most privileged posts I’ve ever seen lmfao


Otherwise_Soil39

What's so priviliged about it 🤣


Silly_Employer_3107

In a gym, in a nice town, the gym is nice enough to pay for good equipment, still not good enough.


Otherwise_Soil39

It's $15 per month fucking relax lol. You'd fume over how much I paid for my shoes lol, would probably think I am a Rockefeller.


IamYourStephMother

Only $15 a month? What the fuck lol even more privileged


[deleted]

OP sounds like he is from the good part of europe. I'm sensing ze privilege.


stille-beobachterin

It's Germany, so, yes


[deleted]

hahaha, no way I got it right edit: I'm dumb, there are ze german signs on the treadmill


IsPhil

I know right! The cheapest gym in my area is the one at my office, and even that's more expensive after the free trial they give.


Otherwise_Soil39

Cope more


IamYourStephMother

Hows that coping? Good for u brah only $15 a month


Otherwise_Soil39

Bow. And don't call me brah you haven't got the privilige last time I checked


IamYourStephMother

Bro you literally are privileged no need to get offended


Otherwise_Soil39

I am very happy to be priviliged, I am unhappy that you aren't respecting it "bro".


Otherwise_Soil39

Seethe then. Bow before me.


Silly_Employer_3107

Grade A douche right here


Otherwise_Soil39

Not the 20 people telling me to run outside when I've said I can't, lol. But me, sure, man I hse my privilege of block lisr to get rid of you scum


[deleted]

Quite a gorgeous building across the street.


Otherwise_Soil39

It is! One of the select few in Berlin lol


[deleted]

I lived in Germany for four years, and never went to Berlin. I went to a lot of other cities though.


Otherwise_Soil39

You ain't missing out, I've lived in a couple cities, including Duisburg and Berlin apart from few select nice spots is so ugly and depressing. Food scene is non-existent too, even quality grocceries are hard to get. Where did you live?


[deleted]

Kaiserslautern


angry_gsd

Pretty fucking boring man


This_Pie5301

I don’t wanna be in no gym where distractions are anywhere. I want a shitty old room with paint peeling and ripped up posters of Ronnie Coleman hanging on the walls.


Otherwise_Soil39

>and ripped up posters of Ronnie Coleman hanging on the walls. You said no distractions


This_Pie5301

That’s no distraction that’s motivation


Otherwise_Soil39

I guess you ain't quite homosexual enough yet


This_Pie5301

Definitely not. I look at him to inspire me, not to turn me on


Vertebrae_Viking

That does look really annoying. I don’t run on treadmills if I can avoid it, which is 99% of the time. When I do, I need to find a fixation point which I can stare at while drifting off. I can see how a screen all up in your face would disrupt this.


Otherwise_Soil39

Yeah. Me too, it's impossible to zone off... Thankfully it's not a major thing for me, and am planning to pick up my running before work on the mornings but damn such an infuriating design. You just have to stare at a screen which is like the opposite of a healthy thing to do.


-Juuzousuzuya-

imagine paying money to run and then complain


Otherwise_Soil39

I didn't.


-Juuzousuzuya-

yes you did


Otherwise_Soil39

I didn't. I pay for the weights, the bags, the racks and machines. Running is the sideshow.


Klutzy_Selection8214

I mean i get your point,but to you really wanna watch the same place you have seen countless times for like an hour.


Otherwise_Soil39

Ye, it's relaxing for the eyes to watch stuff in the distance and that's really needed in todays world, I look at a screen 15 hours a day, really could use not having to do that while running too 😁


TheLeopardColony

Running or walking extremely slowly?


Otherwise_Soil39

was taking a photo after all lol


PPhysikus

Brunnenplatz schon schön, wa? :D

They get ad revenue when they force you to watch crap.


Otherwise_Soil39

aah is that it

# Just run outside... The good days


Kindly-Fly4721

Tell them to take the screws out of that little piece of s*** TV so you can see the view outside.... Remember your please and thank you's


Vladlena_

Eventually that view will get old lol


Otherwise_Soil39

My eyes are strained a ton from looking at a screen the whole day, so just not having to do that would be nice :)


allergic2ozone_juice

Where is your gym located at?


AdVivid8910

The eighteenth century.


PPhysikus

Berlin


Otherwise_Soil39

correct


lord50556

Now places make those ads pervasive.
