Bumpkins anything goes free for all

Anyone interested in a loosely kept log?

Would do to keep me honest and on track.

Mostly would be just for fun , exchange some ideas , talking bullshit, just fun
The start would definitely only be HRT . I’m 58 and been very spotty for last year and half.

Spinal stenosis, 5 blown discs , knee replacement and both hips replaced.

Just be coming on kind of saying hello daily, talking about daily life challenges and such. Far from anything spectacular, but maybe inspire some older members to push it once again. Maybe learn some things about each other ?

Accept what is, accept what comes. Then do it one better.

You’re not going to fix all that’s wrong in the world. Yet you can constantly improve yourself and many of the things around you.

If everything was already perfect you’d have nothing useful to do. Embrace the imperfection along with the good work it calls you to take on.

Proceed under whatever conditions exist. Discover that each day offers plenty of opportunities to thrive, to experience fulfillment.

Present yourself as a willing participant in each moment as it unfolds. Notice your eagerness to do the good you can do.

Whether you encounter ups or downs, joys or disappointments, always be willing and able to respond in a positive manner. Take what is, and do it one better.

love todays thought

The results you achieve do not come from the situation. Your results are determined by how you respond to the situation.

From identical circumstances, two different people can achieve two vastly different results. The outcomes are not based on what they’re given, but on what they do with it.

If the results you’re getting are not the results you desire, stop looking for someone or something to blame. Instead, open yourself to possibilities you have not yet considered.

View everything that happens through the filter of your most positive and compelling purpose. Adopt a perspective that illuminates new, powerful possibilities.

The world around you is constantly changing. There is always a way to harness the energy of the ever-changing landscape to suit a worthy purpose.

Look closely at the situation in which you find yourself. Then step forward with confidence and gratitude, making something beautiful, valuable and meaningful out of it all.



Headed to gym. Really need to figure a workable schedule out. Whether it’s early AM and just pushing forward till I get used to it or later in evenings. No secret I have trouble with consistency

 

[bigbumpkin2003]

Wide grip pull ups 4x 8
DB rows 75s 4x 8
Row machine 140 5x 8
Lat pull machine 150 4 x 8


No cardio . Though I am sure if I would add even some extra walking time, more than I am accustomed too, I would probably lean out some. Currently trying to just work on building any more muscle mass I am able to.

You don’t have all the answers. Nonetheless, there’s something good you can do.

You’re short on time and resources. Yet you have plenty of ways to make a positive difference in the world.

There are all sorts of perfectly reasonable excuses for not taking action. Even so, you have multiple options for getting good work done.

Rise above the excuses, the doubts, the challenges and shortcomings. This is a day when you can create results.

Breeze on past those who say it can’t be done. This is your opportunity to do it anyway.

You can sit on the sidelines and complain, but your time is too precious to be wasted on that. Here and now, with what you have, do what you can do, and watch as life reaps the benefits of your sincere love for it.

Okay Wednesday was church choir . Today the girl is taking me out for a nice dinner. Decided I think I want to try to look for for the Christmas season so that’s giving me ample time. Gonna start adding a little cardio EOD or so at first then increase time and frequency. Not looking to getting shredded or insane massive but an athletic look. Where the abs are visible and some veins popping . I think that’s realistic

 

[bigbumpkin2003]
