People would rather pay for the gym and then pay people to do heavy work. Why not just do the heavy work and save on gym fees?

@thatguyoverthere Exercises at the gym are usually safer for your joints than general-purpose heavy lifting while doing your chores. But I doubt that most of those who go to the gym even thing about it under this angle — they often do their exercises improperly anyway 😅

@m0xee yeah gyms are a place for you to learn movement patterns and build muscle so that when you are in a less safe environment you are prepared. Few know what they are preparing for.

@thatguyoverthere Yeah, the body adapts to the lifestyle you're living, and going to gym you're like trying to cheat it into adapting to something else, I've always found it kinda stupid.
No, having some exercise is okay, but some go way overboard with this.
