and bionic
Dude. 5'9" 250. Yikes. Yeah you gave yourself a gift. Congrats, keep that shit up.
It can be a roadie for Devo!Quote:

There have been a couple posts here bagging on swimming, but I'll tell you one thing: competitive swimming sure makes it clear if your performance is declining or not. The clock doesn't lie. You can delude yourself into thinking you're as good a skier as you were in your 20s, but unless you're doing an activity that is truly measurable you really don't know.
I thought it was the whole point.Quote:

on another note
the one thing I have and am proud of is my health and ability to crush it when it comes to physical activity of any sorts
I do look down on other people and almost feel sorry for them that they have let their bodies go to waste and getting off the couch to get another beer is the most exercise they get
I don't think I'm the best, but I'm happy with my fitness and it's important to me
I don't care how good you are or what you do, but if you just jump on the bike a go around the block that is success in my book
if you just walk a half mile a day that is an accomplishment
I really like cheering people on when they are proud of just small steps in that direction
bikes, skiing, hiking, walking all bring clarity of the mind and happiness I only wish to spread that happiness
Nice work! Don't let it creep back on. Your body wants that weight back.Quote:

I think the point is that the grind sucks. It does. It's fun to toil together but I would never recommend year round swimming to any parent. Summer league and clinics but not year round. I still swim and the conditioning is second to few but I regret swimming all those years and wish I'd done other sports more.Quote:

I spent a good deal of time in my 30's pursuing the concepts of PR. There is really no hiding from it: if you want to be faster, then you have to try and be faster, ideally at least once a week.Quote:
