    Evening, I was short of time and did my BowFlex workout, and it sounds a lot more impressive than it actually is. I question the weights the bars claim to be, that and it is an old well used BowFlex extreme.

    all are pull downs to mimic pull-ups and chin-ups

    Changed the workout, will not go into great detail at the moment, basically I try to do a few things every day
    Now I am doing mainly Yoga and stationary bike. But I still use the Bowflex, and TotalGym, just to a lessor extent.

    Also changed the diet. Thought I would give the blood type diet a try and so far, so good, I feel great, have less joint pain and I am even a little more flexible

    Also just can't get myself to do any of my Yang style. Been doing it for over 20 years, been told by my teacher I am in the lineage and that I can teach whatever I want and I just do not want to do any of it these days. I am not even all that thrilled with the Chen I was working on or the mini-compact that is Chen based.

    I seem to be drawn back to an old form I learned from my first Shifu, the Wu competition 45 form and I am also working on what little Sun style I know. Beyond that I am working on Yiquan and still a little Xingyiquan
