person that I told my wife that I would love to have someone like Jillian from the biggest loser in the gym with me 3 days a week making me go until I puke. She looked at me like I was on crack when I told her that.
HTFU man!
3 days a week in the gym when you could be out swimming, biking or running? You’re crazy.
Yes, and yes. And so would I.
Actually I would like to have a running and cycling partner that pushes me to the limit.
HTFU man!
paint me green and call me gumby… but WTF does HTFU mean? i see it everywhere…

Harden The F*&* Up ![]()
I would only want that once a week
.
I never saw that show but I was one of the only guys in the military who, when our instructors went ballistic on us, I was just like, “Hey man, bring it- you’re only making me stronger and I can take *anything *you can dish out…”
When I went through basic training there was a fellow named McDermott from the hills up east- hillbilly country (he’d be proud to call it that). He was born with a cleft pallet so he had a rather prominent deformity between his nose and mouth- the limited medical resources in his rural environs didn’t do a very good job of correcting that. McDermitt had been made fun of and picked on all his life. When he got to the Army, his only way out of his very rural upbrining, he was tough as an alligator. The D.I.'s and instructors would prey on him: “Do push-ups for having a fu&*ed up face Private!”. He never cracked. He never snapped. He never lost his temper. I was so impressed by him. I asked him one time, “McDermott, doens’t that botehr you when they pick on you for your face?” He told me, “I don’t care. It only makes me stronger…”
After that, when an instructor on one of the ranges dropped McDermott for push-ups, our whole platoon dropped with him.

I think I saw the movie.
You need to find the motivation within yourself to go until you puke. Now if you just want Jillian yelling at you because you think she is hot that’s another story,.
Seems to me if you’re a typical “Type A” triathlete, you need someone hold you back, not push you harder.

Your right, probably more ADHD than Type A ![]()
why would you not want to be crazy? planning to live forever?
and on another note, why would you want to be typical, so you could get typical results??
wait, i think i hear the sheep…you hear that, in the distance…
Type A people don’t let anyone tell them what to do. They tell others what to do.
