Weak

One thing I realize from my fitness efforts is that I am physically weaker than I should be.  What is a reasonable weight for a bicep curl or chest press?  I attribute this to years working long hours in an office job.  There's another blogger called Corporate Slave -- that's what I was, a corporate slave.  I wish I was more cognizant of it at the time, and not just getting hit with the realization now.  How can you get motivated to exercise and stay in shape when you are often working eleven hours a day?  And sometimes more.  It's not healthy at all.

After working so hard for years, what happened?  Kicked to the curb.  I advise people now that loyalty to a corporation is foolish.

Physical strength is correlated with longevity.   Just like VO2 Max is correlated to longevity.  I've made good progress over the last year, but I can do better.  Progress is slower that I had hoped, but I'm not 25 anymore.

I can't agonize over what I should have done differently in my life.  I can't change the past.  When I think back, I realize there were reasons why things happened the way they did.
