Thanks, Rod. The reactions to the visible changes have been amusing; some people are almost uncomfortable FOR me to mention that I have gained weight (under almost all circumstances, it would be a bad thing). To me, my own strength is a marvel, as I pike and maneuver on the paralell bars, enjoying the graceful benefits of muscle control.
Mostly, I am happy to realize that useable strength can bee gained without lifting an ounce of iron (Occasonally, I toss a few free weights around, but the gains are not nearly the same)Also, I am delighted to know that one of my father's admired football heroes adheres to the same type of program!
And, by the way, should I ever find myself hanging off a bridge, I can now rescue myself!
