Why not wear backpack full of rocks the whole time then, it's an extra activity, makes you stronger etc. I think the reason why people don't do that, is that, while often the extra activity/burden is really beneficial, the fact that you can't turn it off can really be a problem sometimes. Say - you have a bad flu and can barely walk around the house, or are in a hurry to get out of the door, but need to run to the fourth floor to fetch someting (it takes a while - I know, I live on a fourth floor in a building with no elevator). The non-optionality is the problem.
- saiya-jin 8y agoFunny you mention rocks in the backpack, that sort of resembles my training when I go for some higher mountains (walking up stairs with heavy backpack). I guess everybody has different perspective on life and priorities
- badpun 8y agoThat's training, the rocks in backpack make sense then (I too sometimes load my backpack with heavy books when I go for a long walk). It's very different from it having strapped to your body forever.
