What is the focus of your workout?  Muscle gain, endurance, aesthetic?  Something else?

Strength. I do a combination of free weights and body weight exercises. I'm naturally really skinny and have always had a hard time keeping my weight up. I figure if I can't be curvy, I'll at least be shredded. Plus, I started studying martial arts a few years ago and decided if I was going to be effective, I needed to get stronger. And now I just like it.

I've also been doing yoga for a little over a decade, but that's more for meditation and mental health. The added strength and flexibility from it are just a bonus.

Tlaloc:
Is yoga worth it for flexion? I'm thinking about picking up something to compliment my gym time (lifting, not aiming at shredded but just not useless dealing with weights as I used to be skinny af too).

Also which martial arts?

sitnspin:
Yoga is definitely worth it. It's good for increasing flexibility, balance, strength, and focus. I recommend it to everyone who is physically capable.

I briefly studied Aikido years ago, but fell out of it. Now I study krav maga. I'd like to try my hand at hapkido, too, but I haven't found a school anywhere nearby.

Tlaloc:
When was the last time you inked someone? What did the design look like?
