Lifting is great for your bone health

When you lift weights your bones bend ever so slightly and when that happens your body goes “OH SHIT! Mah bones just almost bent a little! We need bone reinforcement, stat!” And it begins to grow new stronger bone tissue

I dunno the actual process, osteo-something. But exercise scientists say the best thing you can physically do for your bone health is lift

This is referred to as Wolff's Law

The process is called osteogenesis.

The best thing you can do for your bone health is walk, due to how fibrocartilage works. The second best thing you can do is lift.

How it feels trying to get/stay in best ever cardio and strength shape when pushing 40

From FB:

The #BOOMchallenge must be to see how hard you can fall off

Found this interesting, good production value

For me, I have my own language: what I consider a “null” step whether running or speed hiking, is a step that produces no lactic acid and seems to consume no energy. Basically a free step. And at a certain pace, they all become free, which is what allows me to still hike on legs sore from previous day

But increase the pace, and to me the lactic acid is a “stack”, and there is an algorithm working in the muscle to dump off the bottom of the stack. So either the stack is being built too fast, or else the pace is to where the entire stack can be dumped, essentially resetting the legs to neutral

But on a fast 400m, neither of these can happen

I also really enjoy the luxury of pacing in distance runs. I have always been pretty good at going near hardest in the last 1/3 to 1/4. I like to think of it as the morale breaker, for anyone who might be behind me catching up [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

That’s how I ran too, saving the speed for the end

there is a technique in mountaineering we use all the time called the "rest step" it is pretty similar to what you are describing
