I've not been to the gym since November now since my gym buddies decided to pack it in, I was doing bloody well but now with work also going ballistic I've lost a bit of interest.

Found beer again so not too bad

[Andy]

Me, wanting to use the seated row machine.
Man in a white work style shirt and shiney looking suit trousers with lil red fingerless 90s style bike gloves on is standing by the machine,
Me "are you using that?"
Him " yes"
I walk away.. Sit and do me legs, watching him not move... Still standing by it, hasn't used it.
15 mins pass, i'm watching him the whole time. Hasn't used it, still just standing leaning on it..
I walk back over... "are you finished? Still using that?"
Him "oh yeah just about to..."
Me, "really? cause you just been stand there not touching it for what *sarky looking at my wrist with no watch on it* 20mins?
Him, "well yeah but i gotta build up too it"
Me "well why not build up to it over there and let me get on"

To which he just walks off and sits on the floor watching other people work out.
WTF?





Also got new shoes. They're ace.

What an absolute douche can have half a workout done in that time

sounds like a child, sitting on the floor sulking

what at trainers you get?

[Benn]

I just dont really get what he was doing... Well just watching other people i guess.

I got a pair of Nike light weight running shoes. Really nice, mega light and form fitting.. Like they are mould fitted to my feet. So nice to walk/jog in. And a mega bargain as they where the 2015 model, so Sports direct was selling them at £31, down from £67.

I've somehow magically pulled something in my lower back (kidney area), being no gym bunnie what can I do to gently exercise it to help fix it and then to strengthen it for future protection

[bazzap8389]

Unsure how to fix it prob just rest tbh. Deadlift is the king of back workouts though that will strengthen your lower back along with lots of other muscles too.
