Is it cringe to go lifting with you mom? My mom is old and wants to get fitter, but she’s afraid to go to the gym alone. I go to the gym a lot so I’ve been thinking that I could just bring her with me. I can explain all the machines keep an eye on her and such. I’m afraid I will look like Norman Bates.
>>77335675It's just a character, and do kids even know? I think something similar about dexter people...
>>77335675>nooo I can't hang out with my mom outside of the house because strange might think i'm... LE CRINGE!!!
>>77335675No it's super sweet of you
it's cringe to be worried about how you will look lifting with your mom
Ooph.Please take your Mom to the gym Its Based. Its cool. Its the right thing to do. I cannot imagine any adult will think you suck for showing your mom the ropes. HOWEVER the fact that your going to show your mom a bunch of fucking machines is a huge red flag. You clearly dont know what the fuck you are doing. And while its true that when it comes to exercise, anything is better than nothing, you need to be better. Educate yourself on the basic barbell lifts and basic novice linear progression and both you and your mom should start together, in the squat rack, with the basic lifts, Get stronger together. On off days, do cardio. But please, see to it that your mom get stronger.For fucks sake. Grow up.
>>77335675You are blood, the others are mud
>>77335675If you’re skinny and dominated by your mom it’s cringe, if you’re big and independent it’s based.
>>77335675Its not cringe at all, just dont get angry when random dudes stare at her ass because its going to happen
>>77335675>Not investing /fit/mommy wincestLobster and steak
>>77335675stop worrying about that man. spending time with your mom is the most based thing you can do. cherish this time. enjoy it
>>77335675Its genuinely based as fuck to care and support your family, assuming you don't hate each other. Anyone laughing at someone that loves their mother is a complete retard and can safely be ignored.The cringe part is that you are concerned about how you look helping your mother, the woman that birthed you.
>>77335675It is pretty bad, I never men with any foid at the gym workout hard
>>77335675no its not. go with your mom. i wish i can spend time with my parents doing /fit/ stuff. its really sweet anon. and if people say stuff to you, its because they are faggots with mommy issues
and give her massage after
>>77335675Mum mom is aging and often complains about how weak and unathletic she is. I've tried to talk her into coming with me to do a very simple strength routine. I wouldn't give a fuck about what others at the gym thought even if I was a dyel myself, which I'm not. I have a complete home gym now and live a few minutes from her. She still won't do it.
>>77336022This. OP's mom is never going to make it unless she's squatting heavy 3 times a week. Preferably juicing too.
Don't you have some euphoria episodes to watch, tv?
I think it’s fine but I don’t think resistance training is the best thing for older women. They’d be better off cultivating active hobbies they’ll do forever like walking, gardening, etc.
>>77338284>I don’t think resistance training is the best thing for older women. They’d be better off cultivating active hobbiesYou fool, old women need to lift more than anyone
No, that's actually one of the best things you could do as you will extend her lifespan improving her health. Go for it, you are a good son caring about her health
take your mom and hand her off to a cute trainer
>>77336022this is 10/10 bait
>>77338311No, they don’t. Are there benefits? Of course. But there are benefits to the introduction of basically any activity. Pointing to the undeniable existence of benefits doesn’t mean it necessarily follows that it’s the best use of time and energy. And besides, if you actually dig into the literature and reason about the data, it’s pretty clear that what really matters for aging people is not so much whether they strength train but whether they are generally active and in good health. There are many ways to achieve that which are more enjoyable, safer, and more sustainable than getting your 65 year old mother to deadlift.
>>77338335No. Its not. Machines suck for everyone except the genetically fortunate/very young who respond well to any training stimulus. They are eespecially inefficient for older people who need better training stimulus. Also, older people really need the whole body bone density and balance built by standing with bars in their hands and on their back, not by relaxing on a padded seat.Yes, I have strong feelings about this. And it may only be my myperbolic opinion, but its not false
>>77335675Nigga what the fuck kind of question is this? That's your mom bro, take her to the gym, this shouldnt even be a thread.
>>77335675all the women will think youre the coolest person in the room >>77336022>educate yourself on the basic barbell lifts and basic novice linear progressionfuck off barbell faggot kill yourself immediately>>77339079Starting strength barbell worship has been debunked years ago dumb faggot get off the computer and get into a real gym nerd
All my retard mother does is getting fatter and dumber each day, be glad yours wants to work out.
Nah it's not cringe, sounds hot. >>77335686MY NIGGA
