When I was young and very dumb…. I was able to pick up and entire 318 and roll it over the trunk lip into my Magnum. Some fella came running up for the last bit of the engine to clear the turn I lip. I took it apart to get it out. That was my absolute maximum effort.
Today? 30 years later, I twist the wrong way and I’m my back for 10.
I did it for me way back…. Do it again for yourself.
Stay healthier.
I hear you. I remember loading a Ford 289 block by myself into the back of my Plymouth Arrow. That was when I was hanging out with my Hemi pro stock buddies. They were amazed because they weren't carrying those Hemi blocks.
As far as exercising, it bothers my wife that she's not able to exercise with me. And the more fit I got, the more insecure she became. But it's ok. We have a great relationship other than physical. But when I was in my forties, I wasn't ready to give it up.
