The One and Only Pink Training Log

The spring light is here, days are getting longer once more...after that uninspiring long and gray winter.

Presently I keep my walks energetic and max 1 hour. BW exercises and mobility are on a moderate level. No KBs or weights for now. Will start with light DBs in March.

To sum it up: Nothing is the same after "da pandemonium" but my main aim for feb-march 2023 is to keep the energy level as even as possible and try to build up on a steady incline without debilitating set backs.

I miss the weight training at the gym mentally but physically I need to take it slowly bit by bit and adjust. Patience is a virtue.

Onward. Never give up.

Thanks Pink for your input here, it's all been fun. Something I've been going to mention for a while is this link you put on Gunvald's log a long time back. You introduced me to a fabulous performance, I also collected others by Heart:

Heart - Stairway to Heaven Led Zeppelin - Kennedy Center Honors HD

Played it in the gym when peddling the Airdyne, starts quiet and gradually builds to a crescendo or climax... with the peddling intensity to match before cooldown at the end. Hop off quickly and replay so it goes a full 10 minutes.

However, over the past couple of years I discovered Gunhild Carling and her very musical family, which I guess you would know well. My son being a sax player, I love jazz :-)

All the best for the future.

Now, that we can post to the forum again after a few days maybe we'll just continue....

Well, I am not a pro at closing speeches so I didn't prepare one.

However, I know the training journey must go on as long as the body is with me. One day even that I'll need to let go off. Such is life.
But the body is a wonderful gift, a vehicle for joy and beauty and the home of the spirit.

Consciousness is all there is.

IOL was a dependable waterhole. I hope it stays readable for a long time. It's history! The fact that it kept the same interface over the years was one of the things I liked. Classic in red and white, no whistles or tricks, just facts, respect and support.

Thanks to all of you I met here.

DD forever in my heart.
Good luck Laree in whatever future pursuit you choose and thank you for all your work and dedication and for making this possible. Awesome!

Have fun, guys.Think Pink!
