do you WORKOUT to improve your skateboarding?

[bucky fellini]

As a decent meathead/brawler and a mediocre skater who has been doing the former a good deal longer than the latter, I feel inclined to share my experience on working out and skating. 

Here are the pros and cons in my opinion:

Pros:
- Security guards are always turbo polite to you.
- At parks BMXers stay away from you and nobody typically snakes your lines (exempt fucking Razors).
- People don't think you are an EMO/Artflamer just becuase you are wearing skate shoes and an Indy shirt.
- It's best to roll onto a large muscle when you biff - more muscle, more padding
- Your tendons are strong - you deal with 1-2 years of chronic pain as these strengthen when you really lift hard for awhile but rarely pull anything skating.
- Frat boys are scared of you.
- Keeps things fresh, you aren't always doing the same shit everyday.
- Health, anything that makes you healthier helps you skate longer and harder.
- Mosh pits are more fun.
- Confidence.

Cons:
- You lose flexibility, even if you strech a lot you feel like a gorilla most of the time.
- Gravity works against you - airing and falling.
- The gym burns up energy so sometimes you have to choose between skating and lifting on a particular day (likely you always want to skate).
- You break more boards than you probably would otherwise.
- You deal with more douche bags at the gym than at parks.
 

speaking of dealing with douchebags...












you fucking suck, dude.

[JesusHeartsSlayer]

I was looking in the mirror when the picture was taken so my other arm was stuffed down my spandex shorts waxing my bishop.
