Kicking it Old School in the Gym

Welcome 2016 you beauty! How you doing ? (Imagine Joey from FRIENDS) . Happy new year everyone! As with most people globally everyone has made the vow that is only as strong as how quick you can break it, yes that dreaded new years resolution.

As with most resolutions you have the usual "I will lose weight", then there is "I will quit smoking" (that one ends 2 hours into a work day). My personal favourite "I will quit alcohol and start gymming" Yes! and I will find gold and marry Emma Watson but neither is happening so what you gonna do? Yes if you are the rare creature who is actually able to stick to their resolution because of you true self-control or because you actually don't have a social life because of work (Like Your's truly) then congratulation! Yes ladies and gentlemen I have decided to start gymming seriously and it is going great. I'm still fat but the guilt is less and I have more excuses to finish that last doughnut, "I need carbs I'm lifting weights" *Crickets* "SHUT THE FUCK UP!", anyways back to the point. So as with any gym goer each has a different requirement, You have the professional who only cares about using the machines and making his body bigger, then you have the gym goer who is there because it's a good way to socialise - in other words, get the attention of the opposite sex or same sex, how ever you roll! - I on the other hand am the novice, I go use the treadmill for 35 minutes and then wing it!

Yes I know it doesn't make sense, but that's how I feel!

Yet that 35 minutes gives me lots of time to think about shit, you truly influential matters plaguing our society, matters such as will the Houston Rockets make it past the first round of the playoffs, how exactly did stella get he man back, how long does one wait before texting a girl whose number you just got, and the truly import matter will Leonardo DiCaprio finally get that oscar. Yes I know some truly gripping shit right there.

Between all these absolute world changing thoughts I get a chance to listen to some of the music the gym feels will pump up people to work out harder, because one thing I have realised in my really short time on this planet. Music can really motivate you to new heights. Think about it, think about that one moment in your life where you were truly in the shit hole without an emodium or toilet paper   (Yes that is how graphic we get with this!) and the song you were listening too, how did it make you feel? (Tonight on Dr. Phil - Arjun asks you how did it feel ?).

As usual with any of my posts we are digressing but hey! it's my blog so in the immortal words of "The Real Slim Shady" - "F**k him and F**k you too, you think I give a damn about a grammy, half of you critics can't even stomach me let alone stand me. But Slim what if you win? why so you can lie so can sit me hear next to Britney Spears" .... Sorry I get carried away quoting Marshal. Anyways back to the post, so as any of my loyal 5 followers would know I by no means am a fan of EDM, House and any of that only computer no instrument crap which is quite common in the Gym so I usually have my earphones on while Walking or Jogging! (Yes Ladies, I can run!! CALL ME :D). I have found five songs that truly motivate me to go hard and they are as follows:-

5. Eminem Feat. Nate Dogg - "Till I collapse"

4. P.O.D. - "BOOM"

3. Papa Roach - "Getting Away with Murder"

2. Linkin Park - "By_Myslf" ( By Myself - Reanimation Album)

1. Audioslave - Cochise

There a million other songs like these, yes as I mentioned this is my blog and these are the songs that really motivate me in the gym.

In the end as long as you are in the gym and looking after your health and your self,  thats great, if not  then bring a pint of beer and come lets do some real excersize, NBA 2K16 anyone interested? Tell me more about what you listen too. Comment below!
