This comic strip reminds me of this morning’s usual cardio session at CCAB. As i was doing my chinups, a bunch of middle aged men were playing soccer. Some had bellies, but all were rather out of shape.
The braver ones played topless, while the more conservative (shy? :P) kept their shirts and singlets on. Sometimes I wonder if becoming all flabby is inevitable. Hopefully, if I keep a healthy diet and an active lifestyle, my abs will stay with me till my fifties. Heh. Well, aside from keping my wife happy, I don’t want to turn into a weekend soccer player. I can’t help but suspect weekend sportsmen or those lifestyle gymmers just do it for the sake of feeling happy; essentially placating guilt that comes with a week of inactivity and junk food. I don’t comprehend women who use weights but only if it doesn’t tire them out. How does that tone and shape? :S
Sports and working out keeps me feeling alive. Aging is inevitable. Wrinkles, baldness and loose skin will come. But I will try to fight as hard for as long as possible, because as you know, fighting keeps us feeling alive. Being driven makes me happy, and surely not a weekend ho-hum with a synthetic ball. :/
