I guess I don’t agree with all of the exercise seminars I go to, but Chip Conrad once pointed out something that Bruce Lee said, and Steve Maxwell also used the same quote:

”Adapt what is useful, reject what is useless, and add what is specifically your own.”

and

“Use only that which works, and take it from any place you can find it.”

I don’t have a sport I’m training for, and there’s nothing I’m trying to be the best at. I just want to get through life in a little better shape and still eat those things I’m not supposed to eat. Heck, Steve Maxwell was talking about some awful and harmful diet drug that let a guy eat a whole ice cream cake every night and all I could think of is how tasty those Baskin-Robbins clown face cakes are.

I know eating enough calories for a whole week and then taking some kidney-killing drug is as ridiculous as my chance of winning the lottery, but I fantasize about that as well. I even buy tens of dollars of lottery tickets each year! I even fantasize about going out with women who don’t know I exist, because my super power is invisibility to attractive women. I know some of them just learn to face towards the sound of my voice that they can barely discern above the background noise, but in general I think I could be a spy. But my second super power is always getting caught at doing bad things, and my third super power is an inability to keep secrets.

Oh yeah. Super powers. I’m quite the catch.
