Not wanting to put you off but....this puts my puny fitness goals into perspective!

I've decided not to let it make me feel I should give up, but to make me see that our goals are easy to achieve in comparison....Would you agree?

That is just amazing! Very interesting to see all the analyses of the different moves.
Well, as I am nearly a foot taller and many decades older than Biles, I don't feel discouraged.
But I think I will just stick with the walking for now.

Wamr smiles, all....yes, her beautiful strong body is a miracle, isn't it? I felt the same way watching the arborist "walk" straight up an 80 foot tree behind our cottage, to cut it down..from the top...yes, he had cleats on his boots, and also a belt...but his strong core took him up there! I am adding more movement each day. Experimenting with short 30 second bursts of high intensity, eg kicking my legs as fast as possible in the water, or circling my arms rapidly while standing in the kitchen. ANYONE can move quickly for 30 seconds!...and my goal is only 5 times a day.

What a great little goal - and an energy booster I should think!

If only my sparkly leotard wasn't in the wash! Isn't she amazing - it's inspiring to see where that much passion and dedication can take you. (And what a long way women's gymnastics has come since 1952!) There are some nice motivational quotes from Olympic athletes here...

It's astonishing how much bouncier I feel after watching the floor work!

That was phenomenal! But equally phenomenal, a local woman I see jogging every morning, even the frostiest ones, with a prosthetic leg. She's fit and vibrant and puts me to shame on my lazy days!
