Do ya'llz think we should all reconsider exercising EVERYDAY ?
Since our biology is roughly the same as it was Pre-industry, Pre-society
Our ancestors would've done something akin to today's heavy physical labor, Everyday.. No weekends.. No vacations..
Should we?

I'm confused, rigidlife is "motorcycles"..

I run marathons does that count?

I've been doing this thing for myself running 3 miles/day and it's been 1.5 months so far.
-10 lbs and I feel really good :). Also less fatigue throughout the day perhaps (with proper rest).

I have been working out at least 3 or 4 times a week for the last year... it has been good, my mood is noticeably worse when I don't make it to the gym. It is totally worth while (ihmo) to get some exercise... i wish I had started sooner.
-
I work out on average 6 times a week. Mainly weightlifting/powerlifting. Cardio occasionally or I'll do high rep sets at about 60% or super sets. I've gained about 40lbs some last year and feel a lot better about myself. Definitely need to do more sprints or high intensity cardio though.
Edit: For reference, I'm 6'4" and 250 lbs now.

Wieght gaining has been my primary goal, i just cant tack on mass. Recently i have been adding a whey+pbutter shake post workout and a casein+pbutter shake before bed to add 1000 calories to my day. Been eating around 3000-3500 calories a day for the last 2 weeks and i have gained a pound a week ontop of the workouts. Its been great but all this protein has really made my testorone rise.

A pound a week is actually a really great slow bulk. The raise in testosterone is great as well as it will help with muscle growth. I can talk more in south about this stuff but we should definitely move it to PMs. What are your macros if you don't mind my asking?
-
Someone explain the macros thing. It seems to be the current buzzword.

Macros refers to macro-nutrients which are protein, carbohydrates and fats.

So for all you workout people is Michael Matthews worth following?

:O I wish I had dat BMI.
I've been more active the last few weeks (winter ended, yay!) and I'm already noticing improvements in mood and productivity. :thumb: Need to keep up with it and get running some more. I used to hate running, but it's been growing on me.

I want to get back into Martial Arts but not sure where I belong.
I'm thinking some form of combat Tai-Chi/Taijiquan might be what I'm looking for.

You sound like me.
I started at 6', 135 lbs (skin n bones). I'm now 190 from supplements + more food and years of hard work. I did carb out a ton this winter and hit 200 lbs and had a little belly, but I easily shed it in a month by just stopping ALL carbs and riding my stationary bike 20-30 miles a day, 6 days a week. Which brings me back to OP... I always have taken 1-3 days off during the course of my training.

You should look into getting a standing table

That's definitely an option at home but not so much at work.

Standing workstation will slow the rot.

I think stationary exercise bike is the best thing for adults..
Adults have so many responsibilities, they really need the most time saving routine.
Reduce travel time cost, at least 45-90mins if you go to a gym.

So for all you workout people is Michael Matthews worth following?
Never heard of him but then again I follow mainly powerlifters and bodybuilders. I definitely recommend both weightlifting and cardio. Stationary bikes and ellipticals are the best on joints as they are the lowest impact.

I used to swim 2 hours a day after school... But once you get home you're a vegetable trying to do homework and study for an ap test...

I'm pretty fluffy, but broad shoulders sorta hides it. Going to be living hell when I got back go work at the garage, and back into the pool after that. I swear flies are going to be following me until I jump in.

Don't get me started
And other nice features.

Everyday? Nah, rest days are important. I suppose you should define "workout".
Weight Training? Absolutely not.
Running? Debatable, but probably not if you're large, older or new to running.
Walking/Cycling/Swimming? Sounds good.
