Our house has a rather expensive basketball hoop on the garage, the kind where you can raise and lower the thing. I pushed it as high as it will go four years back and there is sits.
Being old and sneaky helps to win against young and energetic. Had a nephew who was playing college football. Told him I could do more push-ups (I was 50 and he was 20) with the same weight than he could. So we agreed to sit on each other. He put maybe 60% of his weight on me and I ripped out about a dozen. Then his turn. I put 100% of my weight on him and he went all the way down and had to start from a completely resting position. He got out about 3. Now another nephew is getting cocky so arm wrestling. Sit him at the head of a table and ask left or right. Sit down on that side of him. His angle is more open while mine is cross body. It’s all about physics and body movement.
