this lifting steel weights when it's 11 degrees out in the garage is over-rated. Been awhile since I had to wear longjohns under my sweats and insulated gloves just to lift weights.

I'm aware of the dynamics. She doesn't weigh enough.
But you COULD explain how I can do 185 lb clean-n-press's in a cramped living room with no weights.
I think I'll just stick to the garage. It has a cement floor. This house does not. We already have an entrance to the basement and don't need a new one.

I do all that too. When I can. However, bench press, clean-n-press, pullups, curls, reverse curls and french curls are about as basic weightlifting as you can get. I'm water survival qualified, so I can swim just a bit. I'll be running again about the time I acquire a good pair of running shoes. The ones I have aren't all that hot. I CAN however jump rope for 20-30 mins in them.

You need to get one of them stoves they used to put in GP tents. What did they call them? Yukons or some such.
I flat refuse to run, pull ups (except to embarrass the junior son-in-law who left for Army Basic about two hours ago), or situps/crunchies.
I have a (no shit) total gym which will wear you out if you apply it. Add a grandkid or two and you break a sweat faster than .... well i better stop....... wimmin and ladies might read this.

The plant I work at is run like a ship since management is a buncha Navy Nucs. One mentioned to me that I ought to quit busting thier chops since Jarheads were a department of said navy.
"Sure are", says I, "The Mens Department".
They don't joke much anymore. Me, I been cold. I been Hot. Hot is better, which might explain why me and her are still together.....
Gawd I hated and still hate running. I'd rather hoist a pack any day, and that includes the spreadloaded shit from weapons co. Good boots (Danners IMO) make all the difference.
