There are about five key elements of life I’m focused on, but for some reason my thoughts are on fitness. As I wrote the word “fitness”, fit-ness. Anyway, I’m 63, spry, active, but damn I’ve never been 63 before. So I’m paying more attention to how fit I actually am. Hell you can be rail thin and totally unfit and you can be that big guy who is healthy as, well an ox (btw, I’m no expert on the health habits of oxen).

When the gyms reopened I returned the first day. Had no plan, just wanted to get out and work out! I could feel that cumulative effect of CoVid. Sluggish, felt like it was time to give birth, skin dull, eyes too. Three months is a good start. I’m working out 6 days a week...I take a break for the Lord’s day (and take a break) and then back at it. I will add more cardio, and work on variety in my workout.

So why am I writing this here? I think it’s simply to hold myself accountable. If anyone reads this I’m certain no one will race over to ensure compliance with the plan 🤣
I do have one secret goal..I have written about this before...I want...to be able...to do pull-ups...really....Even as a kid, but never could...and well you know...never got around to it.
I’ve knocked 100 lbs off the assisted machine...I’ve given myself a timeframe and a lot of grace 🙂

I’m going to follow you just to keep updated about that elusive pull-up you’re shooting for. Such a good idea. You’ve inspired me to also put that on my to-do list. Thank you 🙏
