I’m thinking to do an all dayer because I’m thinking to break myself mentally.

For some reason I always want to sit down as if I’m exhausted. But it’s obviously a mental thing. I have PLENTY of energy.

I feel as if my current 45 minute workouts are just geared towards ending it.

My mind should be ready and wanting to burn and exert energy all day long. Burning and exerting energy should be the norm not the exception.

Getting up and doing something should be what it wants to do. Just needs broken. Norm and habit set so it sees what it’s like to work all day and sees no reason to not.

If you want to break yourself, do what I did -- go nonstop for three hours without food or water, and without rest periods between machines. Only faggots sip water every 30 seconds. I'll tell you something most people don't know, because they've never tried this -- your body adapts. The first few days you do this, it is hard. You feel completely dehydrated at the end of the workout. After a week or two, you don't even feel thirsty. Your body doesn't need water every minute when you exercise.

When I was lifting weights, I'd drink occasionally between sets and such. I did it pretty naturally and wasn't forcing it.

From what I know, you'll have to plan for caloric intake sometime. The "water only" barrier is real and comes up for marathoners after about 10 miles or so. Similar situation in the gym I'd reckon.

But hell I'd try an all day gym sesh just to say I did it.

The intake is no problem so long as it’s healthy food. If you need to eat five steaks it’s fine, so long as you’re not using it as a break. The idea is to break yourself mentally and create a new norm for the mind. Not to burn only reserve energy.

What I mean is you'll have to bring gels or bars to eat at the gym between

Ya I was thinking what to eat and how. It’ll either be an expensive day of to the gym deliveries or two hour breaks to go home, cook, eat and come back.

I used to go with some military buddies. We'd be there for 3 to 4 hours.

Turned out this pre workout we used for the gym got discontinued and banned because it had amphetamines. It was called Jack3d.

Do you seriously lift weights? If so, and you add-on in someone way for ego lifts, you are likely to fry your central nervous system and get an injury. I would recommend to incrementally progress at one or two lifts per week and keep the rest steady. Working out is how you induce your body to grow muscle, but resting is how your muscles actually grow. If you do too much at once, maybe for one or two weeks you’ll be fine but afterwards you’ll be too fatigued and get injured. Ignore all these faggots saying you’re a faggot if you don’t max out every day, that’s seriously really retarded and you should know that if you do any lifting and/or exercise programs.

Good advice , going hard and heavy every workout will definitely get you injured. Have to strike a balance. Been working out most of my teen and adult life I'm past 50 , in great shape , you learn to listen to what your body's telling you or suffer the consequences.

It's a marathon , not a sprint Unless you have exceptional genetics you won't look like the freaks in the magazines , and they have the genetics plus they're roided up.

I will say 45 min of rowing is super boring

I would imagine something like a lot of rowing, stepping machines etc would be the “downtime breaks”. But no granny rowing etc.

In my prime I was known to be at the gym for 3-4 hours at times. Maybe an hour of that was warmup / cooldown and shower. I went at it pretty hard. Was actually at the gym 6 days a week. Was pretty huge and ripped.

10/10 in tight yoga pants flashing her ass around trying to distract me from my gains.

Paid her no mind. It wasn't easy.

Stay strong brother.

College basketball. 4hrs hard ass practices, straight to 1hr of weights, followed by another hour of plyometrics.

Did that 6 days per week for 2 months straight.

Then hell week the last week where it was mostly sprints or sprinting-pace drills during those 4hr practices.

Really depends on where you are physically at now. Have to make sure your body can withstand that kind of physical excursion before you attempt it. If your only doing weights for an hour every other day, but your overweight, I'd say no. If your doing weights one or two days and cardio days in-between, but your weight is alright, then maybe. Age, caloric intake, current weight, etc... They all factor in here. If you try it, listen to your body. Anything says stop, just stop. Gym bros may be a tough as hell bunch, but don't get hurt. You only get one body

Work in masonry. Get paid buckets of money to gym.

8 hours. I took something. I went to the gym. Round 11 pm. I said I’ll just do upper body. That’s about 3 hours. Then I was like I’m still not tired. So I did lower body. That’s about 1.5 hours. I got done and said fuck it I’m not tired yet. So I ran and ran and ran and ran. I saw the midnight crowd come and go. I saw part of the morning crowd come and go. It was a great work out. Maybe I over did it though. I still really didn’t feel like leaving once I left. I just wasn’t Getting tired.
