-Guy works out in Gyakusou <- "Look at that guy working out in Gyakusou. What a douche" - guy working out in Nike <- ""Look at that guy working out in Nike. What a douche" - guy working out in Under Armour <- "Look at that guy working out in Under Armour. What a douche" - guy working out in C9

I don't get the hate or the lulz at it. Why do you care?

Is there a big diff between the Black and Black-heather Nike Tech Pack sweats? Trying to figure out if the black-heather are the ones that look almost charcoal...

that he works at nike makes it make sense but the nike undercover rejects et al and others who get dressed up for training just seems insane


Shrug, I guess I fit the bill as an nike undercover reject, but to be honest, lame/douchey as it may be, it adds an element of motivation for me. I find my will to workout a bit renewed when the new AW season stuff drops and I renew the pack with it.

End up doing crossfit classes every week day including holidays when they are open... rain/cold/sick. Even pack gyakusou, my jump rope and do travel workouts when I'm away for vacation or work. Would I be too unmotivated to maintain that discipline without gyakusou? Not entirely sure, but given that I used to weigh 290.. I have to say the willpower to work out doesn't come naturally/easily to me.

In the end my goal isn't to not seem lame/douchey, but to stay in shape and I'm not above catering to whatever will aid me in that no matter how lame/douchey it is or how damaging it is to my wallet :)

Also what's lamer or more douchey? Steroids/HGH/Other Performance enhancing drugs? Or head to toe gyakusou with vibram 5 fingers? :) Who cares right? Whatever people wanna do and helps them achieve whatever fitness goals they have.

I'm reacting more to guys who wear it at the mall or lunch. And when you are my age you won't think peds are so bad

Stopped by my local outlet after hearing about the nsw sweats but they didn't have them. Saw a pair of gyakusou pants, the nsw varsity jacket, and some fly knit lunar 1s
