I was at he doctor's office the other day. The nurse wanted to take my blood pressure and my top was too thick so I took it off. Then the nurse said, "Are you an athlete?" I was a bit surprised and stuttered, "No, but I do work out."
A nice compliment as I am 64 years old.
Since I had a vertebral compression fracture last year, I have been really trying to build and maintain muscle. It has been hard as I have other health stuff going on, including a chronic pain issue.
This April, I will have my 40-year "Fitness" Anniversary of working out consistently.
I try to follow the quote from "Galaxy Quest" (1999):
"Never Give Up, Never Surrender"
