Progressive overload.

Climbing stairs.

Bear crawl.

Pause squats with vest on.

But I only have needed 25 lbs so far. But I am building up.

Some people use a vest like bingbong. It's called rucking. I don't walk around with the vest.


I notice climbing stairs hurts the knees. I won't do that anymore.

Even light squats can hurt.

Swimming is a good way to avoid the pounding other workouts kill your with.

I read this was a fad a year or 2 in one of the major papers.
Now I see chicks all over wearing them. The paper was right, it does look a little silly.
Luckily it's not on the chicks trying to show everything.

Problem with swimming is it doesn't improve bone density.

But I love it. Especially in a lake.

Especially in a lake.

You were considering relocating from Hillsborough County or the Poconos to Yellowstone Boulevard in Queens and change your party affiliation by registering as a Democrat. Once you do that you can easily walk over the pedestrian bridge at the Grand Central in Forest Hills to Meadow Lake and swim there. Assuming you will follow through on your threat, will you be casting your ballot for The Prince? You referenced The Prince by Machiavelli in an earlier post so it stands to reason you would vote for Cuomo. Will you please just answer the question already, and thanks again.

Odd you mention the GCP bridge. Someone was shot dead there a few Sundays ago. A 19yo male, last name Rios. This is near Forest Hills HS.

I don't think swimming is permitted in Meadow Lake. I learned how to swim at Cypress Hills YMCA on Jamaica Ave. My body type is made for swimming but I wish I could build muscle in the weight room like Olog-hai, RPanse, and Peter Rosa but I can't.

I did go swimming in Beltzville Lake in Carbon County Pennsylvania in August.

Threads are coming but right now I'm in limerence.

I've seen women wearing those.

They are trendy.

I don't think swimming is permitted in Meadow Lake.

... and that matters exactly how?

Many years ago, one Peter Rosa used to document his exercise and weight training routine on this board and many of us are yearning for those posts to return and are curious as to why he/she/they decided to stop.

Now, as for your statement in regard to being in quote limerence close quote, I think I am just going to withhold judgement and commentary.

Um....subjunctive mood.

Limerence sucks.

“Matters” is clearly indicative.
