This is your one stop all inclusive shop for all things fitness and fitness-adjacent (especially martial arts of all kinds) questions, memes, praise, and more! With this the community is officially open for business (see: posting).

First let me introduce your main oppressive mods: @DasKarlBarx, @POLYBIUS, @penguin_von_doom, @WhatDoYouMeanPodcast, @fed, & @OptimusPrimeRib

You can find the community rules on the sidebar, but they are as follows:

1. Absolutely no fat-shaming, skinny-shaming, or shape-shaming.
2. Be positive about people’s bodies but don’t be fetishistic.
3. Don’t shame or disparage people for their fitness level.
4. Do not offer unsolicited criticism.
5. If you post a selfie, make special care that identifying marks are removed.
6. No doomposting about your body.

We really want this place to be community driven so if you have any ideas please don’t hesitate to share them.

If you’re sitting there thinking “Damn I’d love to be involved here, but where do I start?” try:

Beginner’s Health and Fitness Guide

Some yoga poses

Beginner Athlete

Couch to 5k

Pick a muscle, do an exercise

So let’s get out there and post hard, but workout harder because you can’t crush the bourgeoisie without crushing your workouts first!

We are going to (hopefully soon) start hosting movie watches for martial arts movies! We will post the poll soon, but in this thread feel free to add submissions for movies to be watched.
