The Official Gym & Fitness Thread

Bottled is the only way.

But trying out some fancy shit for once

Nothing will ever beat Dos XX with salt and lime though.

 

I will never get why people have a garage and leave their cars parked out on the street.

My gym equipment can rot in my yard before my truck.


It was in my marriage vows “I get the garage or death do us part”

While I love crafts I still love macro brews.
A Coors Banquet or Sam Adams Boston Lager is hard to beat.

 

Agreeeeeeee. Couldn’t sleep with my truck parked on the side of the street if I had a garage.



And I’m not a craft guy at all but I’m hoping one day I find one that hits the spot and just taste perfect.

Nothing has beat the ole reliable Dos XX or corona yet but there’s always hope.

 

I’ve had 3 houses with a garage and none of them have been big enough for the Taco. It’s an outdoor truck

 

Tiny garages then cause a taco is a tiny outdoor truck lol

 

I guess. It’s too long. And my first house I still had my Frat Runner and it didn’t fit either...

 

Thats good to hear because it should be a federal crime to park a Cummins in anything but a garage.

Craft is something you come around to but once you do you’ll prefer it.
I’m 28 and have really only become an avid craft drinker the last 2-3 years.

You don’t know how to buy houses then.

When we were looking for our first home last year my realtor always had to find out the dimensions of the garage before I’d look at the house. Lol

Now unfortunately I cannot get back my Ford double cab 6.5ft bed in. I can get it in the garage but with 2in to spare. But when we move rest assured the nee house will be able to fit a 20ft truck and the Taco will have a new family.

But if it would fit... I’d probably be sitting with a 2015-2017 F150 Crew Cab 6.5ft bed Lariat white sport edition with a 3in level kit, air bags, and line-xed fender flares an a decked out Are topper... but I havent given it much thought...

 

Well I didn’t have the truck yet in the prior house but it actually would’ve fit in the garage but the door to enter the house was elevated and the steps to the door would’ve needed to be moved for the truck not to hit them. I just expanded the driveway once I got it so it was parked front and center of my house. It’s never been “parked in the street”...

Where I live now the garage was always intended to be a gym so the truck was going on the driveway regardless. Next house, I’ll probably do things differently

 

Also I wouldn’t have my front bumper if it lived in the garage. An old lady backed into it while it was in my driveway one night so I took the insurance check and bought an SOS Aluminum winch bumper and my father in law bought me the winch for Christmas

 

I think you should. Maybe have enough garage space for the truck and gym.

 

How do you like the aluminum bumper? Have you had anything hit it?

 

I’ve already had to rearrange my current gym set up to fit a car in it. The original set up had things more spread out but when my wife moved in we went to having 3 cars and the HOA here won’t let us park on the street or in “visitor spots” so I had to make room in the garage for a car and scrunch all my gym equipment up. Anytime I want to use it I have to pull the car out. Usually works out bc my wife will be at work so I can just back out on the driveway...

 

I love the bumper. It is so light and easy to put on. Which is why I went Aluminum because I didn’t want to have to swap out any of the suspension again. I haven’t broken it in yet or tested its durability

 

I kind of wish I was worse with money and got a front bumper.
I want to do aluminum because its really for looks and gas is expensive but I also hunt and would like some deer protection. I’m not sure the aluminum will hold up if I ever rammed a deer at 50mph.

Any MPG hit?
You’ve got 5100s on the front right? No sagging?

 

It’s a single car garage. The taco wouldn’t fit anyway. I tried before I got anything in there.

 

Same issue I have, my truck would barely fit in the garage but then I can't store anything like my tractor in there. Single car with a little extra space to the right of the door, but the damn door is so low it wasn't built with today's vehicles in mind.

Could I have bought another house, I guess but I bought from family and got a good deal on it so I couldn't say no especially in 2004 when the prices were astronomical.

 

TBH I don’t think a steel bumper would do much more than an aluminum against a deer at 50mph

 

Haven’t noticed any mpg changes. I think the aluminum bumper is lighter than stock lol, the added weight of the winch probably doesn’t help though but nope, no sagging and yes, Billy’s all around.

From all the research I did it seems the aluminum will fare just as well as steel in most situations.

 

Anybody jump rope?

I’m trying to get into it more to help strengthen my shin muscles and improve my cardio while not having to run lol. I was wondering if anyone knew of a good app or training thing for beginners?

 

What do you mean by "feel" I've gotten use to the mass, but when I first started putting it on it was uncomfortable. Now after 6 years and when I am lean at 200 I feel great, but bulking I again experience tightness and just lethargy because it's cumbersome for my body to support another extra 30 pounds or more. I will get use to it again thought as time goes on. Body isn't mean to support these masses for most of us.
