[pianotech] O.T. What do you do to keep fit?

[Kerry]

I got into climbing about 20 years ago. It's not so much the climbing that
keeps me in shape, but rather it's the incentive that keeps me working out
and watching what I eat (every extra pound feels like an anchor hanging off
your butt when you're up there!). I do a lot of walking, stairmaster, lift
weights, etc. I've done some mountaineering but although I still love the
hills  I'm not that much into suffering anymore (age and tuning spinets has
cured me of the need for that I guess), now it's just rock and ice climbing
and non-technical mountain trails.

I work out with a trainer 2 mornings a week, ride my recumbent bike about 12
miles a week, and do a yoga class every other Sunday. Plus LOTS of 

supplements, protein, and organic fruits and veggies.

Like John F., I enjoy road cycling a great deal.  However, with kids and
goofy schedule, the last year has taken me in a slightly different
direction.  I spend more time now playing racquetball, and my main focus,
Tae Kwon Do/Hap Ki Do.  Both Racquetball and Tae Kwon Do provide a very nice
conditioning workout, but I've really found a home with Tae Kwon Do.  A
never ending physical and mental challenge, even with the simplest forms and
techniques.  I'm not quite to the level of you, PRJ (congratulations, BTW).
I'll be testing for green belt in January.  Very fun.

My workouts tend to be JUMPING to conclusions, DANCING around big problems,
RUNNING my mouth off, SHOVELING bovine processed vegetable matter,
STRETCHING what income I do have, DIVING into things which don't concern me,
CHASING dreams and RUNNING around like a chicken with it's head cut off
looking for the tool that I need RIGHT NOW!!

BTW, I visited REI yesterday and got a new floor bicycle tire pump - those
ones that mount on the frame are definitely only for emergency with the high
pressure Prestas.  I'm also doing my homework prior to getting a canoe or
kayak with an idea to doing c/k camping trips.
