I Want to Be Healthy

That's very inspiring! Great for you, Horace!

@goagainsttheflow: Thanks.You can do it too. What do you like to do to work out?

@HoraceGreenley: I lift weights and do HIIT cardio.

@goagainsttheflow: Excellent! i like to hear that you lift. Maintain your muscle mass and tone.

I used to be an Intermediate bodybuilder. People tried to get me to compete in natural shows, but I had no interest.

@HoraceGreenley: How long did you do bodybuild? How far do you run?

@goagainsttheflow: I was really hitting the weights hard up to 39. Then i got hit by a drunk driver and i had to stop training for a few years. I'm OK, but since i started working out, again, i am not so hardcore. I'm just maintaining muscle mass and tone.

I run 2 or 3 miles. If I run more than 3 miles, i start losing muscle mass. I am a runner, as I competed in track from 11 into college.

Wow, I can only jog a short distance. That's where my stamina is weak. But at least I'm much better than I was years ago. Me and gym class did not mix back then!

@goagainsttheflow: Look at it this way, this is a life time habit. It does not matter where you are now. Just keep going and you'll improve.

No one can be in tip top shape all the time. so don't worry about it.

@HoraceGreenley: Thanks Horace, I'll remember that!

@goagainsttheflow: anytime.
