Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

Ngl, if they make gym work as some kind of "heavy work" simulator games like Farming or Mining, with tracking progress, achievements, and competitive ranking, I would be at the gym way more.
VR games already make me work out way more than I thought I would.
Add a leveling system in there and make it an mmo
Honestly just tie it to some repetitie game. Think Skilling in RuneScape. All they really need is a number that goes up, and the occasional firework.
Throw in skins for your pickaxe or whatever and you're golden. People will get so buff, going for the sparkly anime-girl skin, you have no idea.
LOL What would you do with your Skill Points?
Dunno it just adds a progression system which gets me going
Leaderboards
Pretty sure this is super common on some equipment. The ellipticals at the gym I used (before it moved) had them , but I never bothered.
To be fair, I can close my eyes and just sort of flail on an elliptical in a way that would absolutely hurt me if I tried it on the ground. It's also a lot lower impact and when I'm done I can just stop.
CrossFit might be what you're looking for.
