What other Hobbies or Interests Do You Have?

At 16 years old I started bodybuilding. In other words, I started lifting weights in my mother's basement.  Ha. I loved it and been doing it until 2 years ago at 48-49 years old. The big injury finally got to me.

Lifting weights absolutely changed my life.  I used to be super skinny, getting to 6ft 3. It took me a while but got up to a massive 270 pounds at my highest weight. My wife loves it. 

I have a dedicated gym in my basement that is super stocked and can give you a great workout. Looks like a commercial place almost.  Dumbells from 15 to 100 pounds on 5 pound increments... a bunch of stuff. Now my 14 year old works out there for his sport. He's already becoming a beast. Ha ha. 

Nothing like being in great shape all your life. It really changes your perspective on things. It's a lifestyle. Good times. 

As I type, my wife is lifting weights. My son told me an hour ago that he was extra sore from yesterday's workout. I'm so tempted to go back down and start again... it really did give me the life I have now. I'm so grateful to the gym. 

This will probably be unique... I competitively shoot Rimfire benchrest. Had to give up golf and needed a competitive outlet. Pretty much a discipline populated by the retired baby boomers.

I did a lot of sailing in my younger days, thanks to a lot of friends & relatives who had boats.  It wasn't my favorite hobby.  I spent more than my share of time bent over the rail, feeding the fish.

Used to be golf and shooting trap
now it's being locked inside avoiding fake news    ;-)

I’ve been experimenting with the quite versatile audiophile anti-vibration fo.q tape on the frame of my Macho Man road bike and am pretty sure the ride is smoother and the pedaling easier. Could be expectation bias but I don’t think it is. Anyone else use anything like this?
