Challenge
I
have been many things in my life, philosopher, student of zoology and
science, engineer, coward, hero, leader. In old age, what resonates most
loudly are the lessons I learned in the crucible that is most alien to
all of us in comfort-land America. It is pervaded by an ethos that,
among other things, teaches the implacable will to accomplish what you
think you cannot do. You can hear the ethos in Major Misty Posey's
laconic prose as she mentors and guides: https://www.marines.mil/…/SecretToPullupsHowToGoFrom0To20.p…. It is that absolute absence of doubt. https://www.marines.mil/…/zero-to-twenty-plus-marine-devel…/
We accept mediocrity in ourselves, enervate our minds and bodies, and ultimately undermine our health in our quest to be comfortable, professionally, physically, intellectually, spiritually. To be comfortable is to be dying.

Freedom is just another word....
Thought
from one of my last runs, months ago. The silly bumper stickers are
wrong: Freedom really is free. Freedom is a state of mind. I'm always
hearing that we're the Land of the Free, as we sink deeper and deeper
into debt and addiction. Despite all our declarations of freedom, we're
not free.
What isn't free.....is often very expensive....is Justice.

Walking.....better than nothing

Single Sets
Interesting
results. Size does not equate to strength. Strength can be achieved by
single sets, size comes from multiple sets. I've been spending much more
time lifting since i can't run and I think it's showing. But the really
important message is that real strength gains can be achieved in single
sets.....provided you go to failure.
Of course, the body-building community has had it right for over half a century: you need volume for size.

Preventing Muscle Loss as We Age
A good pairing with the previous post: Muscle loss and its associated
loss of strength, is entirely avoidable. One set per major body part, 3
times per week.....that's 15 minutes, 3 times a week. So avoidable....if
you step beyond the myths about old age.
