Close to 71. Last year lost 95% of any opportunities to lift; because of other necessities few related directly to me. Missed it? Beyond “Hell yeah!”. But got through this planet sized big f’king “$tuff happens” event . . .so far ok; more than many. Much respect for what I can’t imagine.
No telling what’s ahead, even with one shot, but I’m back in with the iron. If you can, when you can, where you can, you show up; the iron doesn’t move without you.
Coming back, everything is still familiar; how to pump out warmup, working sets. The numbers are lighter, but so what. Even at this age it’s an even more important journey; not a race. Seeing signs that the muscle memory is still within too. That’s a piece of motivation mid rep or mid sets.
Above all beyond the physical muscle vs iron, good for the mind to be back for the grind!
Keep going and never quit. Head down and push forward.
Strength doesn't come from physical capacity. It comes from indomitable will. -Gandhi
