Have you ever gone to the gym and found yourself frustrated that there are so many people using the machines and equipment? A line for the dumbbells? That's ridiculous! Sure, those sorts of occurrences are annoying, but have you ever thought that the world doesn't revolve around you? Everybody else is there for the same reason as you, to get a little workout in . If you have a problem with that, maybe plan to work out at a less busy time or develop a little bit of patience. It might not be the…

Skateboarding is an incredible hobby. It's impressive to watch , fun to do, and a great way to meet people. It's also the only hobby that actively embraces painful failures as a matter of fact in getting better at the pursuit. I've hurt myself more than I can remember in my years trying to skateboard.

Dogs are objectively the best pet if you’re willing to put in the time and maintenance. They’re sweet, smart, funny, and loveable. They’ll get yo…

Y'all really like to sweat?

Ah, the gym . A wonderful and, depending on who you are, terrifying place. Gyms are inherently frightening. I remember my first experience. Surrounded by fit and healthy adults who clearly knew what they were doing. I, of course, was visibly lost and in terrible shape.

For some of us, going to the gym is an obsession; for others, it's a fantasy.
