[QUOTE="Nashtide, post: 149478, member: 16954"] I have totally abandoned the notion of strength. The few times I’ve been injured lifting weights has always been when I was going heavy. I’m plenty strong enough for an old guy. Now I focus on physique goals. I want to be lean and muscular. So I am not a fan of your thought process. I do think it’s important to have goals. For me, intensity and mixing up my routines have been the difference. I am also not a huge fan of steady state cardio like running because our bodies adapt pretty quickly to those activities and running is just too harsh on knees and hips. Having said that, my wife loves to run. Rather than increasing her distance, she focuses on increasing her pace. She runs about 10-15 5k’s a year and uses those as motivation. I have also come to believe that recovery is very important. Especially as we age. Sleep, recovery and nutrition are critical to keeping us healthy and keeping us exercising for the long run. My biggest deficit is flexibility. I’ve never been flexible so I’ve always had a mental block to stretching. [/QUOTE]
