- I've been working on my longevity goals for this year and I'm running into more setbacks. I have been trying to recover from an injury and now I have another one. Frustrating.

Seems like a good amount of pull-ups. Adding 15 more might not do much for longevity unless you are thinking about longevity in the Marine Corps
Thanks! I appreciate your thoughts on this. And love your comment about the Marines. For me it has more to do with fighting the inner voice over the years that has said: "You can't do that you're too old". I originally set the goal in my 20's got close, then got distracted and never went back to it.
Over the years the idea of trying again has popped into my mind but then the voice pops up too and says "You're too old. You can't do it. So why try?" The goal is not so much about the number of "pull-ups". Or thinking that more pull-ups will increase longevity, though I would suggest that working on increasing max reps in any exercise will have benefits for healthy lifespan because it takes a lot of exercise to do it. It's more about confronting that inner voice of doubt and doing it anyway.
This is why I classify it as a "longevity goal" for myself. I think it's all too easy to give into the idea that we are getting old so why even try. It's too easy to say I'm too old and tired so instead of doing something like take a walk, go for a bike ride or go to the park and do some pull-ups, I'll sit on the couch, grab the remote and watch life pass on by. I'll let old age take me sooner than later.
Not sure if anyone consciously says that but it just happens a little at a time over time until sitting on the couch becomes the only thing a person can do. And I think it can happen faster than it has to.
Obviously our bodies change and slow down but how much of aging is actual physical limitations and how much of it has to do with a mindset and the choices we make about our lifestyle habits?
I’ve found as I’m getting older and things take longer to recover and I’m not a workhorse like you so I’m working out but reducing volume but increasing intensity now this works for me but everyone is different and you need to get over the overuse injuries first but maybe give it a shot ❤
Thanks for sharing your thoughts. I appreciate it. My thoughts as well. I was making progress and got carried away trying to make progress faster. I can put in the work but I've obviously been pushing too hard and my body is protesting. Once I can rehab my arm that's exactly what I will do. Reduce volume and focus on intensity. Thank you.
Increasing your VO2max is a valid longevity goal. Doing 50 pullups is not. I refer to hyper focus on one fitness metric as 'onethingism', doing 50 pullups was more about ego than it was about fitness.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts. I totally agree with your point regarding 'onethingism". I really like that term actually. Pull-ups are certainly not the only thing I focus on. I focused on that in this video but that's certainly not my only focus. I do many other exercises for the rest of my body to promote muscle mass, strength, endurance, mobility, stability and flexibility. Not to mention diet and other lifestyle habits.
Doing 50 pullups is a longevity goal for me because attempting it is something I've been putting off because of my perception about age. For me it has more to do with fighting the inner voice over the years that has said: "You can't do that you're too old". I originally set the goal in my 20's, got close, then got distracted and never went back to it.

For me this specific goal is more about confronting that inner voice of doubt and doing it anyway.
This is why I classify it as a "longevity goal" for myself. I think it's all too easy to give into the idea that we are getting old so why even try. It's too easy to say I'm too old and tired so instead of doing something like take a walk, go for a bike ride, go to the park and do some pull-ups, or play with the kids or grandkids, I'll sit on the couch, grab the remote and watch life pass on by. And with that people let aging take them sooner rather than later.
Oh trust me, I've done plenty of that. (Sitting on the couch) I'm just trying to minimize it as best I can.
Working on a difficult fitness goal helps me stay motivated to get myself to the gym in general. And if I can be consistent, it will certainly have positive effects on healthy lifespan.
First, happy b-day!!!! Then, I have a question for you. You need to work smarter so you don’t keep getting injuries, all you are doing is setting yourself back ❤
Thanks!!! You're right. I made a mistake by overdoing it. Now I have to deal with the consequences. As for the toe. I ran and hiked for many years without injury before I got the toe injury. The doctor said it has to do with just "the way my feet are". Once it's healed enough I'll get some shoes with a special sole to help avoid injuring it again.
Congratulations! 36 is impressive! I am around the same age.. fit, but can barely do 10.
Thank you!
