Guess what? There ARE training robots? I put a bunch of links in the show notes; check ’em out. Episode 80 is a good one for me to hear now. Back then I was in physical therapy, and I’ve got some similar things going on right now, aches and pains and all that jazz. I…

Achilles was a mythical great Greek warrior, the son of Peleus and the sea nymph Thetis, who, upon his birth, dipped baby Achilles into the River Styx, making him invincible. However, she neglected to let the water cover the heel by which she held him. And so, this was the only part of his body…

Friday, June 11, 2022, a date that will live in infamy, is when I started having symptoms of covid-19.

Don’t go to extremes. This is something I’m at times not very good at, for example, the exercise extreme that got me into my current ankle injury. At other times I’m probably too good at it. I make changes at a glacial pace. So I didn’t start with a whole regimen of supplements, before-and-after-workout shakes…

It refers to a range of choices. You generally cannot get a size 48 t-shirt. Instead, you get an extra-large. Instead of…
