Getting back into speedo shape post Brexit

Post by Speedo_z » Mon Mar 29, 2021 10:38 am

Hiya
Now I can't be the only one who needs to lose a bit of unnecessary lard that has unaccountably crept on during lockdown.
Here in the UK, the gyms and pools are opening up again in the middle of April having been shut since December.
Usually I would be back splashing around in my usual speedos, and I can't wait
BUT I can't be the only guy going up a size for a month or so until I'm back to normal, surely!

Also can’t wait for the gyms to reopen. Doing workouts in front of the tv just doesn’t cut it and will def be back in the speedos, swimming in the pool and relaxing in the steam room.

Yes, it's great that the gyms are open here. The Covid pounds (not the English money kind) sure added up.

I had the opposite problem. I lost 10 pounds during the Great Gym Shutdown of 2020. Doesn't sound like much, but it had taken 2 years to gain that.

So 2021 has been a rebuilding year back at the gym. As some politicians said: "Build Back Better" and/or "Make America Speedo Again."

If you're going to go back to the gym, do you mean '"build better back, and chest, and abs..."

Doing tons of stairs, I love my speedo tan, so it's all about the glutes!

If your avatar is anything to go by, then I’m sure you’ll look awesome, when you do.

Just a thought, gents. Whatever shape you may believe is ideal for you -- which offhandedly is generally not your own belief but what you believe others would see as ideal -- know this. You need not attain any particular physical form to be eligible to wear the swim trunks you wish. No one disqualifies.
Build, rebuild, tweak and grow or shrink (I know, horrible word to employ on a swim briefs site) as you wish, but enjoy wearing what you wish to swim and sun now, as you are, where you are (except in frigid weather, don't want shivering or shrinking)! :)
