Message: [QUOTE="Demo Square, post: 5279900, member: 10861"] Hey Guys, IMO, the whole bench press issue for men is just an extension of competitive "d**k measuring & the luck of body shape. Can be fun, if you can do it. But most basketball players' bodies are long & lean (6'5"+) - not exactly the types of bodies meant for high rep bench presses or pull-ups, Ha. I'm 75 now - occasional curls each week is about it. But I swim at least a mile everyday. For overall health, especially for seniors (like above 45), I cannot recommend more highly what swimming will do for your life. Just choose a stroke that doesn't hurt your old injuries. I love the backstroke & am good at it. Can do it stress-free all day w/o ever losing my breath. Try it. Swimming. One very healthy activity you can do for life - & feel great! Father Demo [/QUOTE]
