OT-life/career

[Zerocrew1984]

I'm 22 and i still don't know what i want to do with my life career wise. I want to make money obviously but i don't have passion for anything except for lifting. Who wants to start a powerlifting gym with me? That would be the dream...

When in doubt, make yourself smarter. Go back to school.

 

[Forcetti]

What about going back to uni and getting a degree in sports science or something similar? You could end up doing something lifting related that you enjoy and get paid decently.

 

[booher]

Do an exercise physiology degree with a business masters?

Or....you could change the word "burpee" to something cool and catchy like "abdomoblaster", write a book about it and market it as the next "hindu squat/Subway diet" and make a million off the stupidity of others. It's a tried and true method of making money.

You could also start a religion. It worked for L. Ron Hubbard.

A burpee is too much work. You need something that doesn't require movement.

Market a cattle prod as the new electro-ab blaster or something.

I'm 28 and have a career, but I still don't know what I want to do. Don't sweat it.

 

[DEVILsSON]

completely agree with Gordon....that's what happened to me...i graduated with a piece of paper that says I know economics....i still have no fucking clue of what I want to do or any desire to go back for more....nothing i want to do i am really qualified for....eh...wish i could go back and get a degree in sports science instead...then go back into sports management for masters....

i am thinking of becoming a cop....a well respected job with good pay and benefits...yes it's dangerous but dangers lie everywhere...

thought about becoming personal trainer...but i hate the current state of the industry...

 

[IrishAssassin]

i would love to own a gym...and a bar....if you were really thinking of starting a gym i'd reccommend a regular gym with a seperate powerlifting room...not enough power lifters to make a good living off of but plenty of people that will pay you to use your cybex machines and elypticals and the powerlifting room will be attractive to serious lifters who don't want people doing arm curls in the squat rack

I fucking love beef jerky.

 

[Zerocrew1984]

ok it's settled. I'm getting into the jerky business.

 

[SmashiusClay]

Tell you what I tried a few months ago and really need to get somw more of - squid jerky.

I'm serious as cancer (when I say rhythm is a dancer) about this, thought it would be revolting but damn it if it wasn't one of the tastiest things I've ever tried.

 

[Zerocrew1984]

tastier than hob knobs?

 

[bacon]

*polishes hob knob*

If you start a beef jerky company, I'd be a loyal customer. I take a lot of road trips and a road trip aint a road trip with out beef jerky....and road beers....and road pr0n...

 

[SmashiusClay]

tastier than hob knobs?

Hell naw, still pretty damn tasty tho. was a deep orange colour and looked nasty, but had a great texture and was just yummy.

 

[Henry Swanson]

I'm working on marketing a high tech Asian/Irish style of bodyweight exercises using common household items like potatos, beer and chowmein.

Chapter two is gonna be about car sprints done with the left turn signal on.

 

[Zerocrew1984]

smashy send me some hob knobs and i think i'll be able to dl 405

Damn hob nobs, I'd like to say I spend too much money on them, but really it's not enough.

I just got some Irn-Bru yesterday though....yum.

 

[Cap'n]

I was under the impression the states and canada didn't let Irn Bru into the country because Barrs (The people who make it) wouldn't release the secret ingredient to the food standards agency.

Local Knowledge: The Barr's factory is situated right beside a massive cemetery, Irn Bru's secret ingredient is probably formaldehyde.

It's in canada, but not the USA as far as I know. Yay commonwealth!

There was an even better one called 'Cheer up goth, have an Irn Bru'.

Local kids would walk round town centres with cans of Irn Bru and find goths, shout 'Cheer up Goth!' and throw the can at them.

Fucking Canucks.
