Assuming that you attended the latter in either a professional or a visiting capacity, I suppose there might not be a lot in it, although had you attended it in the other capacity there would be quite a difference, I suspect
I went to the gym in an attempt to lose weight. I went to the prison cell as I attempted to make love to a car park barrier after 15 pints.
Again, there is really not a lot in it as far as pleasure goes.
Clearly, you've never been in my gym...
I have no idea what Hinty is on some days.
In my day there was a group of young guys hanging around the fountain in Pizza Navona
I don't think that "pizza"'s quite acceptable in a thread such as this one!
For those of us who achieved our "shapety shape" walking to and from the refrigerator, I think it most certainly is.
Freudian slip par excellence! "Piazza", surely? I don't think that "pizza"'s quite acceptable in a thread such as this one!Best,Alistair
don't you make your own pizzas fresh from scratch? Shame upon you!
Do the young Roman boys still make complimentary comments as women walk by?
Yes they still do..I'm sure I'll miss them when I will be too old and unattractive to became 'transparent'. Sometimes Italian guys/men can be so funny, witty and... disarming
This thread is very important and ought not to be buried. I have again increased all types of my training. One reaction I had to it was posterior tibial soreness. I have always been flat-footed and I suppose twenty-five years of ferocious hardcourt tennis under pronation laid the foundation for the present issue. I do not run, never having been any good at it at the best of times, but I do walk many miles in addition to my training. I am not convinced big spongy shoes are the answer, but neither are hard flat ones.Do any of the older members here have any tips on this specific problem ? I have bought new, strong shoes and higher insoles, and I am sure once these are broken in things will slowly improve. However, anything with foot tendons seems to take twenty years. Come to think of it, past about fifty-five, anything takes an age to recover from.
Sorry to be negative but you're just wearing out.
Sorry to be negative but you're just wearing out. It's hard to realize because there is no recovery. Find the most comfortable shoes for the surfaces and enjoy your freedom. Too soon you will be looking at mobility appliances, scooters, etc.
Ha ha ! Of course, we are all wearing out from the day we were born.
Indeed old chap we are.In your situation I would suggest hard shoes and a nice bike.Thal
New Zealand drivers are very rude and aggressive; possibly the worst in the world.
You really haven't visited Italy, have you?(!).
Indeed this is true, Italian drivers are the worst I have encountered. If you don't move within 3 millionths of a second after traffic lights have changed, every horn within 10 miles seem to go off.And yet, over the border in France, cyclists are admired and often given the right of way.Thal
And lift *ouch. Lift *ouch
Not for those workouts where you see the great white buffalo in the sky, but actually still a decent mix for light cardio, and post strength training walking
I always listen to Scarlatti when I exercise...makes it bearable
Why not just listen to Scarlatti?Best,Alistair
Well done old chap. Age is indeed no barrier. I have just hit 53 years old and have hit my target weight of 95 kilos and can now deadlift 3 times my bodyweight. Amazing what eggs, tuna, chicken and hard training can do.Hope you are well. I recall you kept fit pushing your ancient lawn mower.LuvThalxx
Thank you my dear fellow. I almost enjoy the disclipline as well. Being able to turn down a bakewell tart is strangely empowering.My banjo technique has no doubt suffered though.Thal
