Sup's post about gigging with a band got me thinking.
I'm 54 and getting random aches and pains that can be associated with hitting middle age.
My knees and feet are not in the best condition
So running/jogging is right out!!! however I can walk up to maybe 5 miles without pain. Kinda jealous of you guys who can go on ten or twenty mile hikes.
I have a bike (so far the best exercise I get... but only once or twice a week on my day off) and a simple situp bench and some dumbbells... that were supposed to get used twice a week... but still procrastinating on that.
So... would signing up for an exercise class help motivate me?
Low impact = Yoga, I'm confident enough in my manhood to try this... and women in leotards... could be worse.
Medium = there is a studio in town that does a kick-boxing routine (not one on one
AFAIK) looks like punching and kicking the air... pretty much a manly dance workout... they have been around for about ten years so something good must be going on there.
High = Krav Maga, looks cool but anything that requires a cup and headgear seems like a bit much for these old bones.
So, what are you guys (and gals) doing to keep in shape?
Yes... I know... pear is a shape
