What do you do to relax?
I have two outlets: Golf and cigars. I own a cigar shop as a sideline, and we have a lounge in it with big screen TV, leather couches and chairs, wet bar, liquor cabinets, etc. So I like to go up and sit in the lounge with the patrons and smoke and chat. Very relaxing.
I usually get 30+ rounds of golf in a year with a regular group of golfing buddies (also cigar smokers) and I love the challenge. Nothing better than a round of golf on a sunny, warm day to ease the cares of life!

OMG I'm jealous, that lounge sounds awesome.
All I do is workout, work, housework. My work isn't particularly demanding, but its a lot of hours. I think I do more "time wasting" than relaxing...

Well, I just raised 2 kids- to 18 and 21 respectively- the last 10 as a single parent, have a 4 month old pit/boxer puppy and a new wife with 4 cats, and a training and tutoring business... Relax? What's that? Seriously, I love movies, surfing the net, taking the pup to the lake, and reading. Maybe I need a cigar?

I go to the gym to "relax" from work. I like to park in front of the tv w/ some take out sushi & a mindless tv show to come down from a good "runner's high" after training & cardio. To relax further, I like to read before bed, but lately I'm just enjoying goign to bed. I've been sleeping WONDERFULLY the last several weeks.

I dont no how! LOL!! For me it is the gym, the only place I can go and blow off steam. I love spending time with my wife and kids but even they know when its time for dad to go to the gym!! Here in Sunny Florida I like to hang out by the pool and grill. Just slow things down!!!!

I hang out here with y'all.
I used to golf. Haven't in years. It was only relaxing if I had a drink and didn't keep score. If I kept score I got too serious. And frustrated. I'll bet ya half the time I played I stopped keeping score part way through. Yep, I'm that bad but I can keep up with better players because if I start to hold them up I have no problem picking up my ball.You guys with the huge sponsor ads in your signatures make reading the forums annoying.

Golf league starts next week and I used to play competitive softball but there wasn't much relaxing going on there. I also used to read a lot but not as much anymore.
Unless there's a bench press contest I joined and didn't know about it doesn't matter how much I bench.

Watch UFC, read fight mags, read books, long quiet walks on the beach, candle lit dinners by the fireplace, have sex with call girls.

I love to relax with a good meal and wine. I know this is a bodybuilding board where everyone is counting grains of rice but on the weekend I like to wind down with a nice meal accompanied by a sick bottle. I eat clean all week so that's my treat. I've got about 100 bottles on hand with pretty much every major wine country represented but with a focus on Italy and France.
