Let's enjoy the pain ! ~Teachings of WorkOut~

在宅ワークのお陰で通勤時間の３時間を利用してウエイトトレーニングの機会が増加中。

Thanks to my work from home, I have more and more opportunities to use my 3 hours of commuting time for weight training.

大阪単身赴任時にマンションから歩いて５分の場所にAnytimeができたのも良いタイミングだったかもしれない。

It was probably good timing that Anytime was just a five-minute walk from my apartment when I moved to Osaka alone.

柔道の補強の為に学生時代にその理論と実践を学び本格的には出来なかったものの少しずつ継続。

I learned the theory and practice when I was a student to reinforce my judo, and although I was never able to do it in earnest, I continued to do it little by little.

ウエイトトレーニングはコツコツと鍛えていると少しずつ成果が見えて来るのがとっても魅力的。

Weight training is very appealing because you can see the results gradually as you work hard.

そして、「苦しい事を楽しみなさい！」と当時世界マスターズチャンピオンの松尾先生に楽しく教えて頂いた。

And "Enjoy the pain! Matsuo Sensei, who was the World Masters Champion at the time, taught me to have fun.

センスというより努力の証。

It's a sign of effort rather than sense.

そんな点が意外と面白いし、少し私の性格にも合っているみたい。

Such points are surprisingly interesting and seem to fit my personality a bit.

ジムに通い出して４〜５年。コツコツと鍛えているお陰で、だんだん現役時代の重量に近づきつつある。

It's been four or five years since I started going to the gym. Thanks to my steady training, I'm gradually getting closer to the weight I had when I was active.

果たしてどこまで筋力を上げる事ができるのか、最近の楽しみの一つになっている。

It's been one of the things I've been looking forward to lately, to see how far I can go to increase my muscle strength.

Big３。ベンチプレス１３０kg、スクワット恐らく２００kg、デットリフト恐らく２３０kg

Big3. bench press 130kg, squat probably 200kg, deadlift probably 230kg

恐らくBig3合計５６０kgが現役時代のMax重量かと記憶している。

I remember that the Big 3 weighed a total of 560kg, which was probably their maximum weight when they were active.

現在、５６歳。どこまで近づけるか！

I am now 56 years old. Let's see how close I can get!

柔道以外の楽しみの一つである。

It's one of the things I enjoy other than judo.
