Back to gym today after a three day hiatus of very low energy verging on sick. As is not unusually the case, after an enforced rest, i either maintained or went up in weight. Up to 105 on shoulder presses and 80 on curls. It still surprises me though.
I'm considering cutting back on the intensity of my aerobic component which is too long and too intense for someone who is not 33 anymore.
I've also started mixing the whey protein with the hemp protein in equal proportions. The whey is simply too much gloo goop and the hemp while less "protein-potent" has more fiber which is probably better overall.
Nicki was very patient throughout all of this and so, since it was warm, i bought some floatable balls and took him to the Oshin for wasser-bal, his big delight.
There were some neo-hippies on the beach, looking dirty and ragged and smoking weed and accompanied by a cute puppy whose natural handsomeness put them to shame. They looked at me with suspicion. I wavered between telling them: "it's three years until the 50th anniversary of the Summer of Love" or "give it up and just buy the Volvo already." I decided to pet their dog instead.
As i write, i am just about finishing up mp3ing all my Bach. I'm surprised how much i have and astonished at how much he composed. Just as astonishing is how all of this gets squeezed onto a thumbnail.
