Today I accomplished something big at the gym—
Cycling 20 kilometers without lifting my butt, going all out the whole time.
🪑 Butt vs Seat Cushion: A Hard Clash#
Because I didn't have cycling shorts and the seat cushion was as hard as a steel plate, by the last two kilometers my butt started to go numb, realizing I couldn't hold on for too long.
Unlike outdoors, in the gym I can't lift my butt to relieve pressure, surrounded by people, I can't mess up my posture. I could only tough it out to the end.
After cycling 20 kilometers, the seat cushion left an imprint on my soul.
💦 Sweating Achievements#
After riding, my clothes were transparent, I'm not joking.
I looked at myself in the mirror—my top was clingy, like I had just soaked in water, probably evaporated at least 2 pounds of sweat.
The kind of level where you could wring out water, this isn't working out, it's like taking a sauna.
🧢 Motivation Revealed: For feifei, training to fly#
The real reason for this ride was because the group flower feifei said she wanted to cycle around the island.
The moment I heard that, I set a goal in my heart:
I want to be able to ride the whole island with her, and ride more steadily than her!
She also said that if I train well, she might give me a 20,000 yuan road bike.
What do you think, should I ride?
🏋️♂️ Gym Cycling vs Outdoor Cycling#
| Item | Gym Cycling | Outdoor Cycling |
|---|---|---|
| Scenery | Only myself in the mirror | Blue sky, green paths, feifei |
| Lifting butt to relieve pressure | ❌ Can't lift | ✅ Can stand and relax freely |
| Sweating level | 💦💦💦💦💦 (steam mode) | 💦💦 (breeze takes away sweat) |
| Social pressure | ✅ Can't move around too much | ✅ Can show off or let loose |
| Leg training effect | 💪 Very effective | 💪 Equally effective |
✅ Summary#
Although I was just in the gym, I already simulated real combat in advance, building willpower and sweat secretion ability.
Next step goals:
- Buy cycling shorts to save my butt
- Move cycling from indoors to Seagull Island and then to Hainan Island
- Hopefully win the 20,000 yuan bike prize from feifei
Training legs for love, even if my butt is numb, I won't back down!
