Today, I decided to start exercising. I almost passed out five minutes into the warm up, and couldn't even stand in the shower afterwards. I'm only 21. FML
Collection
Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I was trying to work out, and couldn't even complete an exercise regime meant for 50-year-olds. I'm 24. FML
Today, my boyfriend convinced me do an Insanity workout with him. I passed out during the warmup. FML
Today, I went to the gym for the first time in months. I was so out of shape that I couldn't even finish my warm-up. FML
Today, I decided to turn my life around and start exercising more. I didn't even make it out the door before I tripped and fractured my ankle. FML
Today, I was feeling really good about going to the gym for the first time. That was until I got so worn out from my “warm up” on the treadmill that I had to go home and spew. FML
Today, I decided to get back in shape so I went swimming. I only managed 10 lengths and was completely out of breath. I was so embarrassed that when a lifeguard asked me if I was OK, I made up a story about a leg injury as a reason to leave only 15 minutes after I got in. FML
Today, I'd signed up to try a workout class at the gym. However, as soon as the instructor started the class, I realized it was much more intense than I had anticipated. I ended up passing out and had to be carried out of the class by the instructor. FML
Today, I went to the gym for the first time in months. On my way home, my legs gave out halfway up the stairs to my apartment, and I had to awkwardly sit there until I could crawl the rest of the way up. FML
Today, I started a new workout routine to get fit. After watching a bunch of online videos, I thought I could jump right in. I overdid it on squats and now can’t sit down without grunting like a wounded animal. I’m now having to climb stairs on all fours. FML
Today, after the longest time, I went to the gym. I ran and ran and ran on the treadmill for an eternity, beating myself up for getting so overweight. Then I tripped and fell off, sweating and sobbing for being so useless. When I looked up, I saw I'd been on the machine for barely 2 minutes. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Keep at it and you'll never regret it again. At least in a few weeks anyway.

It's ok I almost passed out opening the DVD case on my p90x video. I needed a few cooldown periods, a knife and a 6 pack... Probably the only 6 pack I'll have throughout this whole DVD

-24 No what you need to do is hire someone, it's just easier that way.

Very true, here's a new idea! Forget about exercising eat tons of junk food then get liposuction. ( Warning ) Do not try this at home in your garage. Ex. On a Thousand Ways To Die.

Fat ppl gotta start somewhere

32- Sadly not all out of shape people are fat but thanks for the tip!

Good thing your only 21, That means it'll be easy to get into shape, your body should reboot pretty fast :D

40- Lol they have no mention of skinny people being unathletic, or athletics in general for that matter XD

Don't feel bad, OP. I don't think exercing is helping me to get in shape either. When I was jogging last night, I was huffing and puffing so hard that when I got to the Dairy Queen, I could hardly eat my Blizzard. Oh, and I'm not fat, I'm just horizontally enhanced. I'm not out of shape either. Round is a shape.

I have been excercising for 5 years now. It was definatley worthit.

-#24 P90X is tough, man. My wife just finished the 90 days and I got tired just watching! I've only tried it twice and it kicked my ass.

instead of an EvilPotato you are an CouchPotato.

Gotta start somewhere, huh?

uhhhh, thats so pathetic. but keep trying and build up your endurance. hydrate more prior to exercising.. maybe a better diet?
FMMFL1992 3
just keep at it. Don't worry about what anyone else thinks. I used to be really weak the firs time I went to a gym it was embarrassing but I kept at I and I'm a lot stronger now
hellogoodbye1996 6
Actually that could be a medical condition called vasovagal syncope me and my mom both have it. Yes being out of shape makes it worse and I am prepared for everyone to thumb me down saying I can't make excuses for her being out of shape
My_Name_Is_ 5
Time for you to start P90X!
Nena666 16
38 - Indeed! I'm really skinny but I'm so out of shape I can barely even jog for a minute. I'm 21 too :/ sad, isn't it. I'm just so lazy :)

24- Maybe you should start with P90 (not P90X) it's easier!

It must be because of the blood loss from your period. I recommend taking Iron vitamins.
Iamnotmyself 17
I recommend penis transplant if the problem persists.

why would you need to shower after doing nothing
snakerake 10
my bad I re-read it and it said "almost." I first thought that you passed out after 5min then took a shower
DropDead77 11
Either way, this guy needs to put in an effort
StoryOfTheYear 15
Also, either way people usually take showers on a daily basis in most cases anyway Don't see why they shouldn't be taking a shower
aFatFuck 0
Because when you work out you sweat a lot and don't want to smell like BO? SOTY if you're not taking showers daily hopefully you take them after a heated, sweaty workout.
StoryOfTheYear 15
61- Hopefully you are not just trolling and actually took the time to look thoroughly at snakerake's second comment and also what mine actually said I'll give you the benefit of the doubt that you didn't read everything
mrahhhhh 21
Well, at least you're exercising and trying to get better. That's more than I can say for most people.
josebeto1 6
Well, almost exercising. But atleast something right
nucky_fml 5
Maybe next time you'll be able to get past the warm-up and actually do the work out
BoredUnicorn 6
That sounds like a medical issue.
regsworld11 2
You're pretty(:

Not really, people use that as an excuse way too often. It is rarely true.
scrapmetal58 9
Or they have a medical condition BECAUSE they are lazy/unhealthy eater/etc.
LunaaBluee 27
Op was probably dehydrated. You need to drink lots of water before working out !

Fat lard, eat more healthy and drink water

The FML doesn't state that she's fat. She could just as easily have no weight but lacking exercise to keep a toned physique.
Madness_Mayhem 2
... we actually know nothing about the appearance of the OP. All we know is tht whether it's weight related or health related in general, her body struggles terribly with exertion and physical activity like that. someone tiny in size can have the same bodily response to exercise for 1,000 different complicated medical issues but regardless, OP needs to go to a doctor and figure out what the issue is. sounds dangerous

Start out little, then build up your routine.

Bastard.

Sounds like you need to work out a little bit more often, start out slow!
deadroad 5
That's if he Dan even get to the actual workout! ;l

I'm not sure you can start out much slower than a 5 min warmup...
