****ing Up on Vacation and How Do you Handle it?

AnthonyBishop · 07-06-2009, 04:13 PM

So I was getting my bbing game real tight in order to peak in peak shape for south beach florida. Getting here is like a combination of Venice Beach, and Hollywood, CA ( both ghetto, overpriced and limited access to ****). I brough 4lbs protein n my animal paks just to keep the momentum. A few days of binge drinking here n there (which is touch cause 2am u look out side and its like vegas, people just having a blast. There are no pull up bars or parks around to bust a sesh. Now I'm just ****in depressed cause I had higher expectations of Miami AND I feel like my boby is being treated to ****. And cause I'm in a bad mood I don' t feel like ****in' with femals. I'm either just bitching my ass off, or there are some things I can do differently. ANy?

basically. no gym, I mean If i really wanted to do I could do dips n pushups n crunches, but its this whole lifestyle over here that I can't adapt to which is causing the problems. ****ty hotel, all nightlife consists of booze, access to decent food. There are literally no supermarkets. Just wall greens n ****.

thx for ur response

Cock push-ups: Have you tried any cock push-ups?

peteskeys · 07-06-2009, 04:40 PM

Do you have a car or can you borrow one or take the bus? Miami is a huge city, I don't buy that there are "no" gyms or supermarkets around.

thus is true. If i had a car or even scooter rental or have taken the bus, **** would be different, but where would I go, bars? Plus since I'm not enjoying the trip thus far I don' twant to take out another couple hundreds to make some **** happen the last day.

Obviously don't spend all day every day drunk as hell eating wings and not sleeping, but cutting loose a bit on vacation never killed anyone. You aren't doing yourself any favors by sitting inside being pissed about it. Get out and make the best of it, stress is not going to make your physique any better and it doesn't sound like you can do much to change your situation. Besides, you can just use it as motivation to hit the gym harder when you get back home.

You have an opportunity to have a great time, take advantage of it. When you're 86 do you want to look back at the vacation where you lost a little bit of muscle and had an awful time, or the vacation where you had the time of your life at the cost of a couple weeks (out of a lifetime) of training?

Grizadams07 · 07-06-2009, 05:42 PM

Haha i feel for you bro. It already takes alot of dedication and confidence to start working out and put the muscle on as it is, and now your in a city where your being tested even harder. Man I dont think I could do it. Luckily I live in Mich. and there is absolutely nothing to do on the east side of it but lift and go to school haha

GuyJin · 07-06-2009, 06:03 PM

S--t, I've been where you're at and if it's a choice of having a bit of fun (as another poster said) or stressing over the fact that you can't get to a gym, go for the former. If you really can't find some weights, just do a lot of calisthenics first thing in the a.m.: sit-ups, push-ups, crunches, lunges, high-rep bodyweight squats, close-grip pushups, and I'm sure you could find a place somewhere to do chins. Is it perfect? No, not, but better than nothing. Even though it's party time, no one's saying you have to get s--tfaced drunk every day (only if you want to) so do the calisthenics, party hard, have fun, then get back to reality. A few days away from the gym ain't gonna make you look like Pee Wee Herman.

lrm546 · 07-06-2009, 06:37 PM

dude, it's vacation. live a little and don't worry about working out

wolfbaden6 · 07-06-2009, 06:53 PM

It's a damn vacation. Treat it as one. Don't be surprised if you have some good gains when you get back.

ven33 · 07-06-2009, 07:03 PM

Like others have said, 3 days wont hurt you. Just get your cardio in (if ya know what I mean) and enjoy yourself. Enough said.

Shut. the. ****. up! If you can't go on vacation for a week without worrying about the gym you are a giant tool. Please stop posting this crap on here. Grab a beer and grab a girl or just go back home and live in the gym.

merkong · 07-06-2009, 07:33 PM

OP is a massive toolio... worried about working out while on vacation? douchebag. go out and find some pusssy... weirdo!

emac_fenian · 07-06-2009, 07:47 PM

I sympathize with the OP. When I take a vacation, I also miss working out and going to the gym. After a few days of doing nothing but eating and drinking, you start to feel like a fat lazy piece of sh*t. I recently went to visit family, and I did pullups and chinups on the monkey bars at a nearby park and did pushups, and ran on my sister's treadmill a couple times just to get some exercise.

JagWarlord · 07-06-2009, 08:53 PM

I think this post is proof that BB'ing is controlling your life. Your on vacation and your worried about a measly 3 days break. If you've been working out for a few months, your body could probaley use a weeks rest.

agreed. I have noticed bbing becomes more obsessive at times. and when im out of my comfort zone (like now) it gets worse.

agreed. and the walgreens and liquor stores charge a **** load and the place is pretty shady in general. prostitution and all that. I did find some pull up n dip bars and hit a nice back, tri, chest, ab workout so now I'm just toughing it out till i get home.

I definitely learned my lesson here, and I guess that's what it took.

Like everyone else said man, have fun. It only a week or so. Think of it this way, most deloads last a week, and so many lifters dont even lift at all while deloading. What happens after that? Usually they hit a PR next time they step in the gym. So, you better have fun, and quite likely you will be better off for it.

Fukc I'm so pissed off. There's no fukcing Miami in my gym. All I can think about is Miami. And I'm here in this fukcing gym.

fashizzo · 07-07-2009, 05:48 PM

I take it you did not try the cock push-ups? What a tool.
