Longevity

 

I have torn labrums in both of my shoulders. I have not had surgery. I don't intend to have surgery.
Instead, I focus on control, proper technique, and developing stability in my shoulders.

The two things that will enable you to maintain your physical capabilities as you get older are having more patience and killing your ego.

Today was shoulder-focused.

As you can see, going heavy was less of a priority for me today than proper execution and control.
If you want to improve your fitness. Do things that enable your day-to-day life to become easier.

Especially if you're just getting started, don't worry about lifting a ton of weight. Just focus on doing things to make your life less stressful and more independent.

That's what "Fitness" is about.
