PROMPT: Last Thing

Daily writing prompt
What is the last thing you learned?

To think of lifting weights as a means of injury prevention, rather than just a means to build strength or power. I picked up this perspective reading Santino DeFranco’s “Fight Ready” (https://wp.me/p1jv7k-fiK.) I haven’t been a fan of weights for many years now and have long preferred yoga, calisthenics, and other (more minimalist) practices, but I can see the scalability advantage of weights as a means to build a robust body.

Although, I hope this prompt uses “last” in the sense of “most recent,” because I very much hope that I am far from — and couldn’t possibly predict — the last (as in “final”) thing I will have learned.
