Physical limits

I may not have totally reached my physical limits, but my body is telling me that the limits are in sight. And by "in sight", I do not mean something glimpsed just peeping up over the horizon. I instead mean something on the grill of the Mack truck that is looming larger in your vision with every passing second.

I am 39; not 29. I should know that the following may be too much:

Mon. 45 minutes serious cardio.

Tue. Squash, additional cardio, pilates.

Wed. Heavy weight lifting, Squash.

Thurs. Squash, additional cardio.

Fri. Squash, pilates.

The body is cramped and hurts a bit in places where I wasn't entirely aware I had places (pace, Ms. West). I will not try to slip out of the house early on Saturday morning now to go play squash at the local racquet club. I want to, mind you, but I will not. Instead, I will sink into my own decrepitude and hope that the damage I have wrought will have healed up by Monday, so I can start all over again. After all, I have a squash date that morning.

Still, I have never been one to acknowledge physical limits, at least, not happily or willingly. So to be confronted by them now is not pleasant.

I have no intention of aging gracefully.

I was thinking the exact same thing this morning. A month from 41 and I'm starting to notice things aren't as limber, quick, tight, etc as they used to be. I refuse to acknowledge this, however, and will fight it as much as possible.

BTW...do you enjoy Pilates? A friend recommended it to help me stay limber, but I don't know anything about it.

These sun glasses not merely seem to be fashionable and contemporary but have a stability towards plastic that claims it truly is good quality... the contacts needless to say are straightforward inside the face and comfy to have a look with and therefore are a blessing in case the sunshine is extreme resulting in.
