Whoa! Hockey is tough. 

 

Regarding eating well, I did go to McDonald's today. I allow myself one meal a year at McDonald's. With the Friday free fries on the McDonald's app and my single hamburger, lunch cost me $2.20. Old school cost, huh?

You eat it once a year but have the app?

71 here.  Weight training 3-4 days a week.  Ride bike a couple of miles everyday I can. Used to walk 2 miles but torn meniscus in my right knee won’t allow me to walk but bike ride actually helps it.

I loaded the app because I'd heard about the free french fries on Friday.

Arby’s fries are my favorite. When my wife was pregnant with our second son , we would make the trip to Amarillo every weekend to get her Arby’s. That’s when I got addicted to their curly fries. Anyway back to the subject. I climb ladders and roll around in the floor and stuff.

Anyone else park the farthest from the store and take staircases instead of elevators?

 

@MassBass: I'd like to improve my grip strength. What do you suggest?

I park close to the store and get back out in the sticks as quick as I can. Intown people are crazy. I've got plenty of hilly cow pasture fence line to walk.

On the grip training, I suggest Captains of Crush. Most should start with the "Guide" gripper. They're not cheap but will last forever.

Yeah get a set of grippers from Amazon that have incremental resistance so you can progress.You also need to train the muscles that open the hand, even though they are much smaller. For this you can just use some rubber bands.

I’m the complete opposite. I go for the big open area of the lot where there’s no other cars.

 

I don’t trust people parking right next to me opening their doors. Sometimes I don’t have a choice, but I avoid it when I do.

I use a small bucket of sand to train my extensor muscles. MassBass is correct as it definitely makes a difference.
