Welcome

We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!

The Rules

Posts must be:

  1. Links to news stories from...
  2. ...credible sources, with...
  3. ...their original headlines, that...
  4. ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

And that’s basically it!

The second part of the comment is incorrect, as you noted, but exercising without equipment is cheap and effective at getting fitter. Getting big needs equipment but Getting fit can be done with calisthenics.

So to get big, I need to buy one of those 1960s machines with the rubber belt that goes around your waist and shakes you back and forth? No wonder I haven't been seeing those gains.
