Premium Member WEIGHTLIFTING SANTA

Santa is tired being overweight
The mirror keeps showing for Heaven’s sake
Santa and fat
Kids can relate to that
Santa wants to transform into shape
He doesn’t want to resemble an ape
It’s exercise and lift weights
The motto, “NO PAIN NO GAIN”
Protein will be the intake
Training will be the partake
Nutritious meals
Clothing won’t be a conceal
Ms. Claus has organized his diet
Even Santa’s Reindeers will be healthy
Santa wants a healthy team, but not so extreme
Just lean and not mean
Lift and be strong
Longevity is where Santa wants to belong
The new Santa
Transformation at its best
Santa alone will be the one who can confess
Let’s see what the kids like best
Old Santa or new

What Size

In my teens nothing bothered me,
Size 10 I could eat what I wanted,
My weight wasn’t something I worried about,

In my twenties and in my prime,
Size ten to twelve I watched what I ate,
Aerobics and weightlifting became my thing,
To keep my flat tum and tight bum,

In my thirties and two kids later now a twelve to fourteen,
My tum was bigger flabbier but not my bum,
I was always on one diet or another.

In my forties and now a size sixteen,
I have a big big tummy and slightly saggy bum,
Do I diet or exercise no not a lot,

Now in my fifties and a size !!!!!!!!   eighteen,
I totally given up on the dieting,
With an underactive thyroid I dont see the point,
Now with a slight double chin and bingo wings,
Tum hanging low but bums ok it looks good in jeans 
I've not mentioned two things they flew south years ago.

Weightlifting

My journey beginning weightlifting commenced on a warm spring day, when I was of the ripe age of 14. I had no idea the extreme weight this category of life held. The extreme passion that was ignited within on that beautiful spring day. I opened up my digital device to watch another meaningless show on my favorite app. But instead of watching another unrelatable show I took a chance on a documentary that looked in depth in the life of different professional bodybuilders. Since that one hour and a half spark of interest I have never found something so impactful. Weightlifting has taken shape and form into something so much greater than I could ever imagine. It has served as motivation, determination, strength, passion, awareness, enlightenment, stability and so much more. It has driven me to new places and new experiences that before were never possible. But most of all it has provided hand over foot my 100% through and through confidence that was lost but now is found. It has brought me capability and a mindset that before was a mere intangible and unapproachable idea.

Lie Ability


Pathological spit-steroid addict,
blame-shifting weightlifting fanatic
Decathlon cracked lip truth ... 
Jumping over another 
	high      cloudy crystal
	methane alibi 
aloof sprint hurdle 
Twisted twin-lip discus throw 
on a poppy milk turbo fan blow
Veracity record unverified:                                         
	Marathon factual finishes
don’t have a Mary Jane
	Photoshop shred of proof

Possessing a prosthetic tongue 
allows them half-truth pole vaulters 
	to perform 
those verbal gymnastic,
lying athletic feats of strength,
so hash mark daringly
Yielding honesty sweat labor sparingly

Such a Festivus mucous odor:
pandemic ground-zero celebration fête
Noxious nitro nostril gas, 
on a downhill imposter incline oxy splat

	     Lie ability 
don’t hinder a moral victory thief,
it’s a boon to the burglar, actually

Carousel tales ... up-and-down lung sales
giving hazy, rowboat circular details 

Ever racing for the Pinocchio prize,
	wouldn’t knowz  
	        losers, 
with smelly rumor toes ...
Fan the foul exhaust fumes — 
when their tale pipe empty, 
bad-breath     bellow sneakers
reach the end of the road

Games

Each day is like a different game
Few are like chess,
they need tactics to win.
Few are like a carom match,
they need perfect aiming.
Few are like a tennis tournament,
they need concentration.
Few are like a relay race,
they need cooperation.
Few are like swimming,
they need a lot of stamina.
Few are like a marathon,
they need a lot of will power.
Few are like gymnastics,
they need you to be flexible.
Few are like weightlifting,
they test your ability.
Each one is unique and thrilling.
As our strength differs,
We cannot win every game.
Keep in mind this simple rule – JUST PLAY!

Olympics

Everyone around the world is gathered
at the arena as a sports person,
and an audience;
boxing, swimming, fencing, athletics,
weightlifting, soccer.....all the games
are present for enjoyment,
and for the audience to behold.
Flags of different colors and designs
dance in the wind, as the Olympic
torch burns day and night,
to keep the Spirit of Olympics
alive.
Every participant is ready to shine
for his country;
to shine for his name;
to shine for glory!

Seniors Olympics

SENIORS OLYMPICS

Images of fearsomely fit youth everywhere,
healthy people, all bronzed, featured
by the second, on screens and public spaces : 
fit and flash, but always  young, Olympians.

I protest, for we seniors are just as sporty;
we recycle daily, suffer running noses;
fallen archery’s no problem at all - well, it is -
as we routinely wrestle with living.

Best not to even mention water sports.
Weightlifting self out of armchair is hourly,
when diving for the loo, as is rowing back
from much too easily expressed criticism.

We ping pong daily with potions and pills.
Sailing close to the wind, shooting mouth off, 
leads to embarrassed synchronized grinning.
Annoy us and you will get a right kayaking.

Much of our lives consists of sundry hurdles;
shops are like a cross-country marathon,
or a steeplechase broken into relays, 
bench to leaned-on wall, to bench again.

And, we’ve all done pent- and heptathlon,
with the dec- coming in to (or out of) focus,
we need not discus these ageist Olympics, 
I have hammered my point enough ....

Morning

Sometimes in the winter my teeth will chatter
Getting out of bed makes such a clatter
waking up is no fun when all I want is the warmth of my blanket

But, although waking up is never fun
The new day beacons, come, come
Opportunities await
Invigorating is the new day
Swimming, weightlifting, learning new things

If no one got out of bed, what would this world be?
Unproductive, sad, and gloomy
Is that how you want to see our future?
