guys, here is a question -
how old do you think you should be to still be able to do the strength training?
and particularly to do the arm balances or other calisthenics?

what could motivate you to workout?
(i think the fear is the strongest motivation)

what's your thoughts in general about aging and being able to workout?
- do you think you can be too old to workout or is it okay at any age?
- and what kinds of workouts at what age is ok?
- what do you think about martial arts and how good or bad they are to get fit? (i think some kinds do not work for this goal but may make you feel better mentally. also for some kinds you need to train strength and stretch additionally to be better in it)

(and.. how old do you think I am?)

join the abs party, btw !
six pack beautifies people a lot better than brilliants!! 😂😂

Yo la team #sport intensif. En juillet je vais (enfin !) passer ma troca de corda de #capoeira. C'est 3 jours de capoeira intensive. Sachant que moi rien qu'une heure, chuis surles rotules et que, malgré tout le sport que je fais depuis des années, j'ai jamais réussi à améliorer ma capacité sportive, vous me conseillez quoi pour pas mourir (à part les trucs évidents genre flotte, repos, gnagna…) ? Faut que je prenne des protéines en poudre ou un autre truc pour récupérer ?

Est-ce que mon professeur de #capoeira vient de me taxer mes sept arames de rechange pour le batizado parce qu'on est "un peu court" pour faire un atelier éventrage de pneu dans les deux prochaines semaines ?

Damn. Oui. Je suis bien trop gentille et si elles pètent tous entre les doigts des mestres, ça va être ma faute....

Mais on va faire un atelier-repas au printemps pour en refaire, donc ça va.

Today, for Black History Month, we remember events of February 6, 1694: When the Brazilian authorities captured Dandara, warrior queen of the runaway slaves in Quilombo dos Palmares. She committed suicide to avoid being forced back into slavery. Quilombo dos Palmares was a community of Afro-Brazilian people who freed themselves from enslavement. The community survived for nearly 90 years, with up to 30,000 residents, before the government finally suppressed it in 1694. Members of the community would raid plantations, slaughter the owners and free the enslaved people to come join them in Palmares. They used guerilla warfare, using weapons obtained from Portuguese traders and, possibly, capoeira.

As a young girl, Dandara joined a group of Afro-Brazilians to fight against slavery in Brazil. As an adult, she helped create military strategies to protect Palmares. She played an important role in making her husband, Zumbi dos Palmares, cut ties with his uncle Ganga-Zumba, who was the first big chief of Quilombo dos Palmares. In 1678, Ganga-Zumba signed a peace treaty with the government. All those born in Palmares were to be free and given permission to engage in commerce. However, in exchange, they had to stop giving refuge to runaway slaves and collaborate with the Portuguese authorities in arresting runaways. Dandara and Zumbi opposed the deal because it did not end slavery and made Palmares complicit in its perpetuation.

The story of Zumbi, Dandara and the Quilombo do Palmares is depicted in the truly superb 1984 film “Quilombo,” directed by Carlos Diegues, with music by Gilberto Gil.

a good workout as a way to celebrate New Year?

does anyone go to a gym or do a workout at home to celebrate something? as i don´t drink alcohol and don´t like big or unusual meals - i always ask myself - what whould be a way to celebrate something that big as a New Year or Birthday for me? and I decided that some interesting workout with friends would be perfect as I like going to a gym and training at home also. probably something active as Capoeira or Kickboxing would be the best but even a usual strength training with free weights also sounds amazing 😆 unfortunately it´s quite hard to find friends who would like to celebrate by this way 😂

What do you think? would you do anything like this? and if you have done it already, what kind of workout was it? 😃
