      Love this and try to do these things all the time. Number 10 is right on. Hardly ever say no to anything Karolye wants to do and would be the same with Malkin!

      While I do go to the gym, I also have a tried and true system where I do calisthenics, yoga and kettlebell lifting. I’m only working the gym because I want to increase my size, but being able to do heavy weight for single lifts has little appeal or practical use to me.

      How about work. You know that thing people used to do to earn money before the government took over. Chop down a tree, dig up a stump, swing a hammer, drag a deer home for dinner…..
