Teamwork WendyLifts Side Mast Run and Carb Cycling

Hell on the liver just thinking of owning a bar brother! It's hard to see your dad need help after he was your helper for so many years. I feel both of ya'alls pain.
 
My Dads got the heart problems too (congestive), and Diabetes and liver damage/kidney disfunction ....its a long list . He ran a transmission shop for 25 years then bought a bar and ran it another 25 years . Should have stayed with the mechanic shop , bars are Hell on the owners ....

I hate to say this but I WISH my dad had a heart or liver problem. From the neck down he's healthy as a horse. Took immaculate care of himself. Distance runner, kayaker, solved puzzles -math, 3-D (not jigsaw) for fun. Did everything right. This is his reward. Thing with dementia is the long grief process. It's not like someone dies and you grieve. You grieve every goddamn day and every new step down into the disease triggers a new round of grief that you didn't know could get worse.


Shit. What happened to the tinder talk. Someone tell me what "swipe right" means.

I've been meaning to ask about your dad but I sort of knew the answer having had several friends who have been through the same thing with a parent. The news never seems to be great.

There is nothing wrong with your face. You look awesome. I have no doubt you would be amongst the few (hundred) who would receive Wunderpus's copy and pasted pick up line on tinder.

I will say I've had the same experience however. Look in the mirror and think my body still looks like I'm in my 20's but what the hell happened to my face. I'm not thinking face lift (or boob job either for that matter) I figure at this stage I'm beyond repair!

Awwww thanks MP. You're not so bad yourself. Idk why it is that men get to age like fine wine and women get to age like milk.

It is a strange phenomenon to see yourself age though. Especially when you don't FEEL like you're any older and certainly not more mature. lol. :)

Wendy, from the pics I've seen, you definitely do not look your age!!! You look amazingly super awesome! And I KNOW you are only going to get better!!!

And I think it would be a great idea to have a thread about dealing with sick parents... we all come from different stages in life, experiences and parts of the world but this is one common thing... I think it will help you guys to talk about it and have the support, show those that are in early stages how to deal with it and those who went through it all can share how they dealt with it all... I think it would be great!

Nah!!!! You got a long time till you notice this. I really didnt even notice aging till like 47ish. Ive always said the gym is the true fountain of youth, so just keep hitting the gym and you'll be fine.

I don't plan on stopping so hoping for the best [emoji4] I think I have decent genetics too but I can use all the help I can get!

But...I think Hawaii would be the perfect fit for a fountain of youth!

You've got a good 10-15 years before you need to start worrying. Enjoy them! :) and Mr B is right, the gym is a fountain of youth! I was a distance runner for years and it just made me meh. The gym turned things around. Wish I'd started 10 years ago!

Wendy, you need to stop this. You look amazing and your hard work shows. Trust me, you have no worries at all. Headed out for my fasted cardio. Keep killin it Lady!

You don't have anything to worry about. You have a better body than a lot of twenty year olds. I prefer younger girls, I don't even date chicks my age and I'm still attracted to you. Your definitely good ;)
 
Ok. First week done. No sides. Going to start some cardio this week. Bootcamp has started at work again so I'll do once a week there and either some sprints or Trog training at my gym on Saturdays. @GearGodess will that be sufficient?

I'm a recovering cardio junkie and have reached the point where I feel like Forrest Gump when he quit running. Lol. But I can still whip that old endurance training out when I need to I guess....begrudgingly.

Your still in a deficit correct? Finished my 45 minutes fasted cardio by 5:30AM this morning. I am having a hard time staying out of the gym, which should be a good thing right? Just not enough recovery time I think.
