normally i just carry the 90 lbs up and down gym stairs a few times. but last night i walked with my kids downhill to the mailbox with two 45 lb plates. Gosh. it’s tiring. i had to stop and pant by the roadside while they watched. the oldest was home from sdsu.
this was decent entertainment for them.
strange mental image to have in one’s brain. walking to get the mail with your dad, down a hill, while he struggles to carry two heavy weights, his forearms sinewy with pointlessess and vanity. i remember my dad…he was a strange man….his arms were throbbing so hard he couldn’t get the mail key into the solt and we had to help him….
it was much further than i usually go witht ha quantity of weight. smetimes i stroll with a 35 lb kettlebell, which gets tiring, but not the same.
