I fractured my hand boxing at the gym last week. I’ve come to the conclusion that it’s hazardous to my health - that and I am too fecking clumsy.
At least I legit get some time off from the gym and have a valid excuse to stick to the crosstrainer and the stairs from hell.
Enjoy the gym op. It can be lots of fun. |

How did you fracture it. I used the cross trainer not sure which handles you're supposed to hold  |

A mixture of the wrong hand support and my clumsy approach.
I use the smaller handles for when I have a fast burst on the cross trainer and the larger ones for a steadier pace. |

Haha. I carried on too like a proper ‘ard bitch. Million Dollar Baby me! Then when I hit the showers I cried like a kid that lost her lollipop. It really hurt. |

Having never stepped inside a gym in 48 years prior to this May, I now go for 45-60 mins, 5 times a week and thoroughly enjoy it.
I take Wednesdays and one day at weekend as rest days
I do a mix of cardio and use the machines. I haven't progressed to free weights yet.
From my point of view, it is a health thing. An attempt to reverse my diabetes and generally get a bit fitter.
I am past aestethics. Not interested in being ripped or having pronounced / defined muscles, just better in myself |

Ive started fitness classes which includes loads of different types of activities. Body combat is a personal favourite. Hell do I ache all over though but feeling much better for doing it.
Just need to keep motivated to keep going now. |

Isn't bodybuilding the phrase used for people who go on stage? Rather than just people who go to the gym |

"Leg session done.
Total weight tonight 17,550kg
Sod the stairs... I'm sleeping on the settee tonight 
Omg 170 reps of 100 kg that's enough to floor anyone "
It was split over 5 different excercises.
Combination of machines & freeweights |

No - it's someone that decides to change their body to what they would like it to look like - a sculpter but not with clay,wood or stone,the human body.....much harder to do 
I am a bodybuilder BUT find all that competition and posing boring.
I do it for me to shape my body to an image I had in mind as a teenager.
I'd NEVER compete and besides most are on anabolic steroids like the olympic athletes and I don't wanna go there  |

It could be, not sure, although, it is a term widely used by mostly everyone. |

My husband goes the gym and is big, a lot of his friends are big. None of them call it bodybuilding.
To me you look like you go the gym but for fitness rather than trying to get big. |

That is fine, we all have different interpretations.

Actually no it does not , shag looks like he builds his body , he sculpts it , a very precise and difficult task
Getting big could be body building or it could be eating cake as you work out
Shag if we trust his pics which I do , has progressed very well and maintained a lean body , for him to improve his lifts add muscle and remain lean is dedication , very much a body builder
I'm glad your man is big and strong and enjoying the gym , if he does not consider himself a body builder that's cool but in my opinion shag certainly is , and body builders exist at all weight classes not just man, woman mountains x |

We are always in some sort of specialised or commercial gym for fighting, lifting or commefi gym for steady state.
Life seems happier for us both when we train. |

I do. Oddly, I've only come to really appreciate it now I do it partly as rehab following a life changing injury earlier this year. I don't think I look like I work out, but I feel a lot better (physically and mentally), and I'm overcoming many of the apparently permanent aspects of my injury. And my body feels different now. I do it for me. |
