(+) Yeah! (+)

Yes you do, you're just lazy

Yes, yes I am.

Why would slayers ratio themselves

If people can watch films and series for hours a day and use social media for hours a day, yeah you have time to exercise.

what people really mean is "life is stressful, work is depressing, the last thing i want to do is sweat and be more tired when i could relax and be happy for a little bit"

there are some fun ways to get exercise, though

I workout almost everyday but I also dont have dependents. Its a reasonable excuse in todays society. Work takes up too much time.

Yeah, this. It's often not literally time, but more just exhaustion, stress, and depression making it really hard to work yourself up to it.

the funny thing is that relaxing or just being happy in general feels so.much.better.after a workout.

it feels pretty good after an 8 hour overnight shift too

Us Slayers are a proud, and honest group.

I'm not lazy. I just don't wanna. If you need a nap expert, I'll have you know I play hard and nap harder.

It's hard for me to workout because it's boring as hell for me. The only thing that pushed me to doing it was when I was in the dating scene. I'm married now and it becomes a drag to even do cardio. The only thing that pushes me forward to exercise is trying to be a good healthy role model to my newborn daughter and pumping 80's rock music in my ears to make it like some montage.

This is it for me. After working a long shift, all I want to do is relax.

Depending on your career and hours it can be a huge timesink honestly.

Yeah I work 12.25 hours a day and seldom get more than one day off at a time. My job ranges from extremely stressful to extremely boring which leaves me still tired as fuck when I get home. Go get locked in a building with nothing to do but walk and stare at things for 12 hours. You'll be tired.

"I don't have time to workout"

Translation: "I don't want to workout."

If you want to work out, you inevitably make time for it.

"Nonono my life is just too busy to find time to workout."

Yes, because you don't want to workout...
You don't value the results of it for yourself, so you refuse to adjust your schedule for it. It's okay to be honest.

The main problem is that people automatically associate working out with making a 2.5 hour round trip to a busy gym to lose the last of your energy reserves. That's why people think they can't make time for it.

It can be 30 minutes a day at home and it should have a tonic effect on your energy levels.

all that time spent training pokemon could have been time spent training yourself smh

Tbh this was it for me. I was a gym rat during college, my part time jobs and wfh stages. Being in the office 5 days a week, I was only going to the gym on weekends. I've since switched to working out at home and it's been great
