Your GenX imperative to die harder and later!

  • Having Fun at Seventy One

    Well…I find myself at one score and eleven years after I turned forty (calendar) years of age as a Pisces.

    Oh the places I’ve been.

    And Yo-ho-tally-ho for more places to go and interesting things to do before my epitaph is chiseled in stone.

    Have I learned anything substantive to share with you?

    I think so. Yet I ask you to be the judge and jury for my sense.

    => In no particular precedence, my top 5 lessons to be learned and shared are:

    a. God is great, beer is good, and people are crazy. Get crazy – please – and move stuff as very good medicine.

    Be an Xercist!

    b. And is positive, BUT is negative. No BUTs allowed. (Strong buttocks are indeed allowed and encouraged.)

    c. Down-aging by 7 to 10 years vis-a-vis your demographic and gender peers is a DOABLE DO. There is No Alternative (TINA) – so… DO IT daily.

    d. Timing isn’t everything. Yet it can be a whole lot of somethings.

    e. Good things take time. A skinny Austrian kid invested years to BE BACK as the Terminator – yes?

    As Quenn Elizabeth the second advised near the end of her very long Healtspan – – –

    When you Stop – You Drop. Don’t Stop.

    Stay well past forty,

    Your Bottom Line Up Front (BLUF)

    CALI greetings, all.

    I’m not BLUFf’ing when I cut to the chase of this post…

    GenX – Die Harder and Later!

    As nights are still cool in most of our zany world’s Northern Hemisphere, I offer a science-back and sweat-based fitness map for a good read by the fireplace or pillow.

    Check my hyper-linked video trailer for STRONG TO SAVE:

    You’ll be glad that you did – assuming that you want to perform like someone a decade younger than you.

    Down-age with me.

    ps – While my ideal down-agers are in GenX, the practical themes of STRONG TO SAVE are for EVERYONE. Yup.

  • Who were the real-life Amazon warriors?

    Who were the real-life Amazon warriors?

    I put full credence in the National Geographic organization for its enlightening article about the true-blue Amazon warriors.

    With the bottom line up front – those very tough ladies were NOT from the Amazon region. They were from the Mediterranean area – Scythia.

    May I quote from STRONG to SAVE – with its equal obeisance to strong ladies and gentlemen?

    Here goes:

    Feminine Feats
    Feats of strength were lauded in noble Olympic tradition, and
    through the years of history. Yet, feats of strength were not always
    manly.

    I offer this myth-buster that champions physical feats of
    Scythian women who were erroneously labeled Amazon warriors. A
    credible 2014 National Geographic article offers that: “Archaeology
    shows that these fierce women also smoked pot, got tattoos,
    killed—and loved—men.”4 Just sharing…

    No, those lady warriors did not have breasts removed to
    become better archers.

    No, they didn’t come from Lesbos or from the
    Amazon region.

    Yes, they adapted to horse riding in ancient Scythia.
    And …

    Yes, their strong skills and prowess scared the bejabbers out of
    many Mediterranean males. Those real Amazons learned how to die
    hard at the expense of others.

    Ladies, why not embody the physical
    and mental spirits of those great Scythians?

    Be the strong equal of
    men.


    Ladies, do not give in to “yes but” reasons of lesser souls who
    under-invest in their bodies and banks:

    • Social
    • Psychological
    • Lack of knowledge
    • Lack of facilities or motivating coach
    • Shortness of time.
    • Do or do not. Find ways or make them. Invest.
      Today’s great athletes (of both genders) present and “carry
      themselves” as did Braveheart, Ulysses, Stoics, and the Scythian
      females in days of yore. Aesthetic bodies are both hard and hard to
      overlook, aren’t they? Reflect on this timeless wisdom of Socrates:
      “It is a shame … to grow old without seeing the beauty and
      strength of which (a) body is capable.” Thank you, Socrates!
      Who among us looks away from heavenly bodies?1Do or do not. Find ways or make them. Invest.

  • Long Hard Ride

    Since I launched KABOOMER in June 2020, I have been head down and tail up in writing a sequel for Generation X.

    Well… STRONG to SAVE launched on January 30th, 2024 for GenX.

    Woot!

    Knock knock – what is 296 pages long and took 42 months to gestate?

    Gest what? Gest STRONG to SAVE.

    The Marshall Tucker Band’s Long Hard Ride has struck chords with me for ~ 1/2 century. 

    Now, I hope to inspire Gen X to have a vital and long ride for another 1/2 century.

    So… please take a peek at this little bookstore shelf…

    You’ll be glad that you did.

    Just remember that Mirrors, kids, Lululemon leggings, and drunks do not LIE – Get lean and strong to look good “nekkid.”

    Stay Strong – Well Past Forty!
