We’re doing pretty well for a geezer room. I do 90 minutes of reverse pyramid weightlifting 3 days a week and 30 minutes of cardio every other day.

I shifted around 4 7ft grands, carried 6 digitals (including an N2 Avant Grand at 350lbs) and lifted 4 studio uprights onto and off of dollies as we reset the floor… I took Finley swimming, and had about 14 “dog”walks this week. Where does that rank?

You're only geezer lite.

I've recently discovered HIIT training. If you're short of time it's a good way to make 20 minutes feel like about 2 hours of misery.

@Mik more of a geezer than 89th, slightly less than Ax and Jon.

I have tried that on the elliptical. Brutal but with positive results.

The high intensity bit is miserable, but the subsequent endorphin rush is quite nice

The longer term effect on the waistline and bathroom scale is quite rewarding as well. It takes dogged discipline though.

Intervals are great. I prefer them to flat "in the zone" cardio.
