Am I the only one who thinks old school floor exercises crush fancy gear workouts?
I used to get ripped with just a mat and hard work. Now all these apps and gadgets just make things harder than they need to be.

Honestly, "just a mat and hard work" really cuts to the core of fitness. All these new tools just distract from putting in the actual effort.

Yeah, when avery_lee2 says new tools just distract from the work, I get it, but that's not always true. Sometimes a simple piece of gear, like a set of resistance bands, can actually help you focus on doing the movement right instead of just struggling through it. It's not about the stuff you buy, it's about how you use it to push yourself. The real problem is when people think buying the gadget is the same as doing the workout, you know?

My uncle still trains in his garage with a rusty old barbell set from the 80s. He says the only beep he needs to hear is the timer on the microwave telling him his post workout baked potato is done. The man is in better shape at sixty than I was at twenty five. Makes you wonder.

Right, because what I really need is a Bluetooth-enabled band to tell me I'm breathing wrong. Some of this stuff just turns basic moves into a tech support ticket.
