Paragliding

I went to a parkour fitness place and saw a dog walking around through all the people who were working out and it seemed really unhealthy. It wasn’t a helper dog, it was just the owner’s dog walking around, jumping on the equipment that people would be using and working out as if it were a person. The place is just meant for human use though. Is that not illegal?

Contact the management! Maybe they’re not aware of what the owner’s dog is doing.

Most dogs are filthy with their excrement, worms and parasite. You don’t want those on the exercise equipment you’re gonna use next.

There are enough problems with staph & MRSA from gym equipment to worry about dog-borne pathogens also.

I would also consider changing fitness centers, since this one is clearly not conducive to good health!

I started smoking 2 months ago, I smoke 4 cigarettes a day, sometimes 6-7 on weekends. Im going to stop in August, will my athletic ability be affected or will I still be healthy when the football season starts.

Considering you’re not up to a pack a day it’s not that serious yet. It wont have any major effects now, but the longterm ones will bite you in the ass if you don’t quit SOON. You probably want to quit 3-4 months before season. After quitting you will get sick and congested (you will be coughing up mucus for a while, its good though it means your body is recovering from that nasty stuff) You’ll need a month for sickness, a month for recovery (rebuild your immune system, cut junkfood for a week or two) and lastly a month for training your lungs to hold the regular amount of air it used to. Good luck!! :3

I am a bit confused about the difference between a jock strap and an athletic supporter, please help!

An athletic supporter could also be a fan; a person who supports that team….
