#exercise harry

[twopoppies]

Hi Gina! I’ve been following you for a long time and never sent an anon … However, today I was talking about Harry with my uncle and he said that while on a work trip he was at the gym at the hotel and Harry was there! I asked him when this was and he said it was sometime in 2018 … so I’m assuming it was during Live on Tour? Unless it was later in that year?

My uncle was working during the day so he was at the gym pretty late that evening. He didn’t know who Harry was so he was just working out like normal. Then when he was walking on the treadmill Harry came on the treadmill next to him. He said that he gave him the normal smile of acknowledgement — them both having earphones in — but then Harry started talking to him and they continued talking for like an hour! He said that he obviously doesn’t remember many details of the conversation, but he said that they were mostly talking about my uncle’s job and family stuff and then Harry said that his friend was waiting for him back in his room so he had to leave (and it was basically nighttime).

My uncle only today found out that he was talking to Harry because I was showing him pictures and he remembered his tattoos! Sorry this is long, I just wanted to share every detail possible!

His…friend. 🫠🫠🫠

Also, I’m sorry, but Harry just wanting to have a late night chat on the treadmill with a random man in the gym is the most Harry thing ever.

Please don’t burst my bubble and tell me this is not true, because I want to believe it. 🤪

Politician!Harry hates Mondays

[ardri-na-bpiteog]

As a leftist it is often frustrating how many leftists are just straight up bad at politics. Like yeah fuck the system the system sucks, but it is the system we have right now and until your revolution materialises, we have to operate within that system to achieve things but so many leftists just insist on really dumb political moves.

I’m not sure what to do.

I’ve been trying to fundraise since May and I haven’t even reached half my goal. I’m not sure what kind of curse I’m suffering from where I can never do the things others are able to do. I have seen hundreds of people be able to crowdfund effortessly and I wonder what I’m doing wrong. I was sexually assaulted in the workplace, wrongfully terminated and threatened with a gun. I have overshared to the point that the only thing keeping this case together is that I haven’t shared my employers name. I’m not sure what get’s people’s attention. I’m not sure what to do. Not sure what to say or post

Gina, have you seen the article about Hs workout routine for LOT? I mean, we all saw the results… but I find it almost even more impressive to learn how its been done! His dedication and work ethic is so inspiring and surely part of why I adore him so much 🫠🫶

Holy hell. No wonder he’s in such great shape. Just a note that Thibo David was his old trainer with Live On Tour. I assume Brad Gould was his new trainer for Love on Tour. But I doubt his regimen was any less insane.

[…]

If you include the one-mile run and bodyweight challenge, this is the hardest warm-up I’ve ever done, but, given the intensity required for the next two elements I’m promoting them to workout status.

[…]

David says Harry Styles can run a mile in an impressive 5min 13sec—a standard some of the professional athletes David coaches can’t match—but I was urged to run my own race.

[…]

This was far closer to my wheelhouse as a CrossFit fan. I chose to tackle it in alternating sets of 10, transitioning quickly between exercises to finish within the eight-minute limit. But even commando rolling from push-up to sit-up then springing into the squats left me little time to spare.

[…]

I took 7min 39sec, and, somewhat unexpectedly, given I can barbell squat more than 300lb, it was my quads that blew up the most. Whether this was the result of the one-mile run before it or heavy front squats the day before, I couldn’t say, but my thighs were on fire by the final rep.

“I like to say that I train very smart, but you also have to be very stupid sometimes, you know? Do this type of workout in the most stupid way; go hard at the task at hand, like when you throw a ball for a dog and it goes super crazy.

“This is a very good workout for that. Very good at building everything that needs to be added after the aerobic base; aggressiveness, speed, that go-hard mentality.”

[…]

Things did become particularly spicy during round three and four though, as my body began to tire with the sustained effort.

My posterior chain (the muscles running along the back side of the body) took a battering from the kettlebell swings and sandbag-over-shoulders, my already-fried legs felt heavy during the box jumps, and my shoulders grew tired from two minutes of straight clean and presses—it was a serious test of muscular endurance.

[…] I also did 12 total rounds—I wanted the full Styles experience, after all—but I’d live to regret this. The hill I chose grew progressively steeper as I worked my way up it, and by the eighth round I felt like death. My sprints turned to slogs, and the time it took me to complete the distance I established in the first interval grew longer.

[…] The prior running and box jumps didn’t help either, but I got it done eventually in less than 30 minutes.

[…]

This was a relaxing way to wrap up a far from relaxing morning of training, and gave me a second to catch my breath after a monumental effort which lasted a little over two hours.

I swapped his day of training for one of my usual CrossFit sessions and had a lot of fun doing it. Every part of my body felt like it had been put through the ringer thanks to the muscle-burning circuit and lung-taxing running elements. I was also very, very hungry.

Another thing that impressed me was Styles’ evident fitness levels and work ethic; how he has the energy to perform for two hours during a stadium tour is no longer a mystery.

Another thing I liked about my chat with David was his openness and honesty. I often see articles online saying celebrities do a few Pilates classes or HIIT workouts each week to stay in unbelievable shape, and he was keen to dispel this myth.

“Collaborating with Harry Styles was an absolute delight; his commitment is unparalleled,” says David.

“But it’s important to note that this level of training isn’t suitable for everyone. Harry was inherently fit, but achieving the level of fitness needed for this session still required time, work and effort. Rushing into such high-volume workouts can pose risks.”

David also stressed that sessions of this intensity weren’t done every day, and the nature of his workouts will often “depend on the day and the state of the athlete”.

“It’s crucial to emphasize the significance of proper periodization,” says David. “Not every day constituted an intense session. In fact, we strategically incorporated recovery sessions which often involved a light run combined with core exercises and mobility work. Every workout was thoughtfully placed within the overall training plan.”

Spit flies from your mouth with the force of your words. You’re red in the face. But Kim just stands there, glaring. Mouth set and posture rigid.

“I know.” His voice is unwavering and his eyes are hard. “Officer Vicquemare warned me that you’d do this. Try to push me away. I’m not leaving, *partner.*”

“I don’t fucking want you here!” Liquid sloshes out of the bottle with the force of swinging your arms wide. I don’t want you to see me like this. He already has, your furies supply, and he didn’t turn away.

“That’s too bad, because you need me here to make sure you don’t injure yourself.” A very slight smile. “And I’m nothing if not stubborn.”

“What else do I have to say? How low do you want me to go, Kim, before you just give up?” The thought flashes in your mind, guaranteed ways to hurt him. Oh, you could hurt him so badly now that you know the Lieutenant’s buttons so intimately. The process maps itself out like a tree, how to shatter his heart and make him finally, finally leave you to your misery. Can you do it? Can you be that shitty?

Absolutely. It’s another day in the life of a shitbird like you. You’re practiced, mastered. The poised man before you means everything to you, and he’s standing between you and oblivion.

Just like the others. Hurt him to save him.

From you.

Kim’s eyes widen the moment before it leaves your mouth. He knows. He knows this is your last ditch before resorting to physical violence (he’s prepared for that, which is why he has cuffs in the back pocket of his jeans), but it’s not any less painful to know you could stoop so low.

The words stick in your throat. You made the mistake of looking into his eyes, hoping it would drive the point forward. Instead, it has driven it into the ground. The nasty things caught choking you, half way out and never going back in. You can’t do it. You bury your hands in your greasy hair and pull till the pain squeezes tears from your eyes.

You feel and hear him move closer. You look up, pulse spiking, body preparing for impact that doesn’t come. The Lieutenant’s chest is heaving, hands balled into fists.

“Let me clue you in to a little fact, in case you haven’t been paying attention.” His voice drips with sarcasm, eyes narrowed, finger jabbing at the air between them. He’s furious, but dialed in—nothing exists outside of this argument, the electric live wire between you two. His voice gets quiet, but as firm as any you have ever heard. “When Kim Kitsuragi wants to do something, Kim Kitsuragi goddamn does it. I have already decided to go down with this ship. So the question, Harrier, is whether you want to blaze out in a poetic fireball of mutually assured destruction, or do you want to *fucking save me!*”

Save…him? Your hands go limp at your sides and fizzing liquid seeps into the carpet at your feet. Esprit chirps up in the silence Half-light left behind. He means it. He would follow you into death itself. What is this, if not another danger to your person. He is at your side, now and forever. Are you going to endanger your life partner like that?

You hang your head in shame, too demoralized to hold back the sob that rips from your chest. “I’m sorry.”

Kim places a gentle hand on your cheek. The dearest thing you’ve ever felt.

He raises your chin up to meet his gaze. Tenderly, he says, “I don’t want an apology. I want you to be the Harry I’ve spent the last 6 months with.”

You nod. Day one of sobriety, comin’ right up.
