I used to do this stuff but had to stop, perhaps I was overdoing it while not ridding myself of bad habits.Heck, if you're doing that you're more advanced! I was showing you the easy stuff. But the easy stuff is still good.
lol... the competitive nature in me did and does that to me too.A little yoga story.
One day when I was invincible my girlfriend had taken up yoga and I came home and found a video cassette made by famous Ashtanga power yoga yogi, Pattahbi Jois.
I attempted all 17 poses surprisingly well for a newbie.
My tendons were so sore for at least a couple months.
Too competitive, not too wise.

Talk about getting a buzz, this will make unhealthy people OD on nutrients.
i started running in my early 20s as an antidote to the lethargy that came from long hours of study. i went from 'i wonder if i can run a mile' to several 3 hour marathons and multiple 10ks, 5ks, 2 mile track races, and a PR of 34:50 10k. i started cycling when i was in my early 30s to get over running overuse injuries, but my fitness level led me into road racing and criteriums (closed circuit road racing) until a brutal finish line crash and a coincidental birth of 2nd child sidelined me for a while...which led me to triathlon (much safer), which got me back into swimming (childhood sport) and eventually into masters swimming in my late 30s and meeting up with Olympian swimmer Jerry Heidenreich as my coach. i've been swimming competitively almost 30 years now, except for the years 2010 through 2015 when i got tired of the black line and started bike racing again, which led me to track cycling (my avatar is a shot of me on the warm up circle at the now sadly defunct Superdrome track). i started out with road racing before going to the track, and i tell you, there is nothing like being a 60 year old Cat 5 (beginner level) on the starting line with a bunch of 18 and 20somethings ready to get their race on. i progressed pretty nicely through a couple seasons of local weekly critieriums, one season of which was the summer of 2011, the hottest summer ever in Dallas. our races began at 5pm, when the temp was quite often 105 or above. if you survive the heat, it makes you stronger. i eventually found my way out to the velodrome, and i've never been bitten by a sport so hard as i was by mass start track racing on fixed gear, brakeless bikes. crazy fast and crazy fun. i moved rapidly from beginners (mostly kids) up to B level racing (high intermediate)- i was always the oldest in the group by 20, 30, even 40 years, but a lifetime of competition and racing smart kept me in the running in most races, often with top 5 finishes. but, a super harsh crash with broken bones in the last race of the season in October 2014 knocked me off the bike and the orthopod told me if i went down again on my left shoulder, i'd be very seriously injured, so, with great regret i stepped away, and back to the pool. where i've been ever since 2015. my health and wellness goal for this year is to try and recover some of my sprint freestyle speed. and maybe, not drink quite as much. MAYBE!
If you look at the list, everything makes sense. I still like meat and sugar. I just don't overload.
Going on 64 here and still no meds. ..
I sure wasn't saying that there is something wrong with your smoothies, as long as you don't remove the fiber.
December 2017 and Feb. 2018 I spent several weeks hospitalized each time. Being sedentary and not eating much I lost a lot of weight and strength. I mean it was hard to take my pants off and on. Once out I began eating more and eating better. Cooking instead of microwaving. I got a little stronger but that was all. Then the "Great Maker" put a bug in my ear. The word was "You did this before so do it again". The "it" was strength training and not the rehab from the home visiting nurse. Back in my mid-thirties I started weight training and I also studied the science behind it. Put on about 40 lbs. and was no longer the tall skinny guy. Fast forward to now, I got one of those Total Gyms. Started slow and steady, the weight and strength began coming back. That walker they sent me home with from the hospital is still over in the corner where I put it when I got home. IMO too many older people (60+) have a hard time getting around because the doctors won't tell them they should get stronger because it will help them recover sooner. Whether it's Yoga or strength training it's still true that if you don't use it you loose it.
