Vic, thank you for your transparency and openness when sharing your physical realities, experiences, and challenges. Today’s writing is awesome and super encouraging.
I’m not dealing with many major physical challenges, but can see age related issues trying to sneak in the door and my goal is to keep it shut as much and as long as possible. I’ll be 69 in July.
The past +2 years I’ve made some good diet changes that I’m still modifying. The past 6 months I’ve upped exercise a level by adding more intensive weights work outs including your comments on slower reps being better.
A major improvement I’ve seen is improved balance. Add to that small strength increases and also looking a bit better, I feel motivated to keep on keeping on.
Thanks again for writing encouraging and challenging articles.
Thanks for this and for your perspective. I've been a bit whiney this morning and I need to get over it. After an infection last year, had L2-L5 fused and had to learn to walk again. I'm still gimpy but I've realized I can't just wait to get better. I have to work on it. Dammit.
