I HATE gyms, so I hit the heavy bag, my bowflex, and got creative with medicine ball, jump rope, and pushups/ pullups. I admit I was surprised at what I weighed when done, as I am currently at 165. (My dad was 6' 3" 151 at 26 when he left the army). I just started a quick lifting program to do before fall league starts last week of August, hoping to add something, but even at 165 lbs I seem to be MUCH stronger than at 225. Don't let all that "weight behind the swing" crap fool you. You will even out where you should be for your frame, and in shape is always better than big. LASTLY, the reason I quoted you, is that I also had arthritis in my knees, elbows, and fingers (and I play guitar...). I haven't had 1 drop of High fructose corn syrup in 10 months. I found out that it was a severe imflammatory and cut it out. I feel like I did when I was 12, before I started to get fat. NO pain (except my shoulder but that's an injury and for that matter is actually usable now compared to before!). My fingers don't need to be cracked all the time, and I can play 6 at a tourney and not be done for a week anymore! Or by the 4th game who am I kidding! Excercise and diet change may cure you! Edfred sorry for the slight hijack. We got a guy who "retires" every fall, but shows up every spring. When you aren't ready to try come April, then you are done..
Are you sh****** me? Resurgence at 31???? Wait until you're my age then talk about resurgence.

I hear you bro, that's why it's so amazing to me. Basically, I didn't realize how bad being fat and out of shape since JR year in HS (when I quit baseball to work) had made me. It's that big a difference, and if I kept up the way I was, I would not have enjoyed your age at all!!!!

A: How Old Are You?
B: Are you in shape?

If you're old, play senior league-but get in shape first! Otherwise you'll just stink there, and you think you feel bad now.

If you're not old, get in shape! At least you might be worth something defensively, take an extra base once in a while and won't be doubled up when you hit your endless ground balls to short.

If you're young and in shape, you suck and there's nothing that can be done for you.

Get a video camera and record your swing ... BP and games. Your mechanical mistakes will quickly become obvious.

I took a little off my swing and focused better this year and my BA went up 100 points.

I'm 64 ... stop whining and play.

Two questions:

1: How old are you?

2: What kind of shape are you in physically?
