[Blindtlk] Health & fitness?

[Mark J. Cadigan]

Admittedly, I am a lot younger than you are, and, I still am not in great 
shape, but, I find working with my set of barbells to be a quick exersize I 
can do every day. I also do other forms of calisthenics, EG pull-ups, 
sit-ups, push-ups and jumping jacks.
