What is your exercise regime?

Plus it's called Haidong Gumdo. Just saying it cheers me up.

Haidong Gumdo.
It sounds like something to eat. Or maybe that's just because I haven't yet today. Either way, it's not cheering me up... :heh:

You haven't Haidong Gumdo-ed yet, either. Maybe that's your problem.

Haidong Gumdo.

I want to play a fiendish gnome half-illithid with that name. "Haidong Gumdo, at your service."

(I'm honestly NOT poking fun at the actual Haidong Gumdo tradition, of which I know absolutely NOTHING. If I'm being offensive, just let me know and I'll stop. It just makes me giggle every time I say it.)

Haidong Gumdo.

Maybe it will help if you say it with the voice from Adam Sandler in The Waterboy. I tried it that way, and laughed so hard I nearly peed myself.

"Man, dat sum hiiiigh quality Haidong Gumdo dere, chere..."


(disclaimer: Err, ok, sorry... I'm not making fun of Haidong Gumdo tradition and/or practice either, which I have the utmost respect for. But I'm having *way* too much fun with this to stop now :))

Isn't it obligitory to by chubby and wear a black tee-shirt? I thought they revoked your gamer membership card when you became too svelt? :)

We have had great sucess on the "eat a little and walk uphill all the damn time" diet, of course, we were living in the foothills of the Himalayas, Joe's vegetarian, and I'm diabetic (carb-sensitive), so that rules eating out a lot of good food on a daily basis.

Now we hit the gym with low-impact exercise for a longer duration daily. But sometimes taking a plane to India for 6 months is easier than trying to lose weight in the US. It's a little too comfortable. Joe's like fusangite. He hates making a special visit/effort to exercise, but if he has to walk 3-5 km a day to run errands, that seems less egregious to him.

If you need your ENWorld pals to come up with errands for Joe to run, I'm sure we'd all be willing to pitch in.

I could really go for a roast beef sandwich, hold the mayo.

:D
 

I started seriously lifting weights at the start of the year. I'm lifting 4 days a week, and using a Gazelle for cardio (not the animal, the weird treadmill-like-walking thing). I have no idea how much I walk per day. My job involves a lot of it, plus plenty of stairs.

In D&D, my Strength is still only around a 14 (read as = wimpy). :)

1d4+2 times a week, I do 30 minutes on the ellipse machine (zero-impact, 500 calories or so, heart rate between 160-185 for at least 20 of those minutes).

1d4+1 times a week, I do 2d3x10 minutes of weight stuff. Still not that buff, but getting better. Depends on how much time I have available.

Walking to Canada from Texas, huh? Not quite like running up the bazaar to get some fruit or walking to the jewelers to get a clasp fixed, but a good roast beef sandwich cannot be shorted its due respect. :)

BTW, I was looking for your completed storyhour download, but it wasn't on the list (since the server upgrade that is). You got a link or plans to upload it? I also see the all Stewardess story hour is finished as well, but I haven't gotten time to take a stab at it yet.
