Lets play outside

I don't "hate" gyms. I strongly (strongly!) dislike the bullshit self image mentality (many!) people have about gym memberships. These are the same delusional phonies who take selfies of themselves while working out. The same delusional people who can't enjoy a single sexual encounter without taking selfies of how they look while having it.

"I like the way my abs look fucking girls doggie style."

The poorest (most unhealthy) body images, are by those who obsess on their own, alongside criticizing others.

What I support, what I urge more people to do, especially for us southern Californians, in particular is, go outside and play! This is why we live here, pay stupid amounts of rent, for the year round gorgeous weather. If you like athletic competition with others, play volleyball, basketball, outdoor yoga, and cycle the beaches (you'll get plenty of competition there!)

All it takes is friends. Do you have friends? If not, you'll make some. Just leave your house. Go to the beaches. Go to the parks. Pick up a tennis racket. Join an athletic team.

But no...

This isn't what you guys seek, you guys like the full length mirrors in the gyms to take selfies in.

Gyms, have replaced self confidence, like what fashion magazines did to young girls self body images, only they found a way to grip a larger population, both genders, all ages.

I get how helpful gyms (can) be for people with limited time, special physical needs, and/or specific time restrictions, but if that's you, you're probably not posing in front of the gym mirrors snapping 100 selfies.  

Whenever I see people running on treadmills positioned directly in front of the giant gym windows, I can't help but think as I run past; puppy mills. You (do) know they made an outside for you to run in?

Want to meet me for lunch, great, lets pack a picnic and hit the beach, or a park. A glass of wine? Fantastic, I know places right by the ocean, and by art galleries downtown.

I'm more attracted to healthy active mind, spirit... and then body.
