It’s been a rough year for the Brodys, but we’re doing all we can for each other. Meanwhile, above is the latest pic of moi, almost ready to soldier on.

A better title for this post may be “How I broke my sternum” a few months back. In the case of this particular Larry (that’s me), I was doing a front plank, which I held for a wobbly minute, after which I pushed up from it so I could be in a position where my thighs could do the actual work of standing up.
I’d done it daily for years, but this time I heard and felt a “crack!” It took about three months to heal, although it was only supposed to take half that time. The reason it didn’t is because I kept testing it out by using – I mean trying to use – light dumbbells for flyes, which of course only exacerbated the situation.
Moral of the story? Hmm, how about “Competition is an unnecessary and dangerous activity, even when the only person you’re competing with is you.
LYMI,
