[quote=walterwhite]I’ve been an aerobic weenie for over a decade. Tired of it.
I’m gonna eat a lot of food and lift a lot of heavy weight.[/quote]
walter, maybe this is falling on deaf ears because you only want to be cool, but this isn’t just “aerobic” where you just burn a lot of calories, but you don’t actually have any strength. have you been to a circuit training class? its not about running or doing aerobics, its about training different muscles to be strong and have explosive power all while not resting between sets.
as someone else put it about lifting dead weight being very functional for carrying the missus……well ya might be able to carry her over your shoulder, but can you perform gymnastics for hours without throwing out your back or tweaking your knee, or straining your legs and groin?
