Presidential Fitness Test
#1
Just seen yesterday that President Trump was bringing this back.  What do you all think? Is this a good idea? I believe it is.

I was watching President Trump answer questions from the press yesterday.  I normally pay attention to what's being talked about, but yesterday I couldn't.  I kept zeroing in on one guy standing beside Trump.  I kept saying to myself, man that looks like Triple H. And it was Triple H! Turns out he's on the President Fitness Council or something to do with it.

I believe this is a good idea and couldn't come at a better time.  Many kids and people in general spend majority of their time on technology devices, phones, tablets, computers and stuff like that.  Many don't get the necessary exercise required, especially young people. 

When I was a kid I stayed outside and active. Playing sports and exercising and stuff, even riding my bike for miles just to go fishing in the creek and catch little creek chubs lol sometimes I'd walk to do this.  Shoot, somedays I'd jog 8-10 miles.  When we were out of school or on Summer break, I'd work with my dad. He'd give me a hammer and a bag full of nails and say have at it lol There was no sitting around for me. 

That stuff helped me stay active and in shape.  Today to much screen time equals not enough exercise. 

The only regret I have is that we didn't have this program when I was in school.  At least I don't remember it. In gym class I don't remember being tested on push-ups, sit-ups, pull-ups, or a 1 mile run, or anything like that.  We never had to climb a rope either. 

Mostly our gym teacher would toss us a basketball, football, or kickball and we'd split into teams.  We did run and have races occasionally.  We also played ping pong lol

Our poor gym teacher, Some of us were very competitive and didn't like to lose.  We'd often argue and even fight over losing what was supposed to be a fun innocent game, in gym class lol

The Presidential Fitness Program will be a good thing I believe.  Help today's youth get in and stay in shape.  Plus how cool would it be to receive a award from the President when you complete the program and pass your test!

I like how the president leads by example. He obviously works hard to remain in tip top physical condition.

I hope to still be alive at his age, much less be as active as he his.  You would have to be in great shape to keep his schedule.

I'm "guessing" that Trump is 20 years your senior, and in better physical condition than you are.
How'd I do?

Trump is not in the vicinity of being in better physical condition than me.  He wets himself, shits himself, apparently the stink keeps his handlers at a healthy distance from him. He's falling asleep at meetings. He's showing signs of being unsteady on his feet. His body is outrageously and egregiously starting to resemble something out of a 50's sci-fi B-movie. Just a catastrophe of a speciman. It's what 50 years of McDonald's and KFC will do to a body.  No one has ever accused the orange meanie of being health conscious.

Based on your own posts and watching Trump's near flawless execution of his agenda over.the first 200 days of his second term, I consider your post to be third rate fiction  Not even up to your usual low standards.

I misunderstood. I thought OSH was describing Biden.

OSH is auditioning for a part in the next big Democrat hoax. He's tired of being an unpaid volunteer shill for team Hillary. Somebody is going to have to step up to replace the insurrectionist who soon will be bound for iron barred accommodations.

Gym class was often the only reason I looked forward to going to school, when I was younger.  I'd loved a challenge like this. But times have changed people are to easily upset and offended these day's.  Maybe have the challenge to where it's not mandatory, only those who want to take part in it can.  Even when I was in school not everyone participated in every event in gym class. Which some had medical issues and couldn't participate, now that's definitely understandable. I'm telling ya I'd loved a letter from the President, congratulating Kong here on passing the fitness exam.  It wouldn't have mattered what party the President was either.

Shoot, I might even try and see if they can get the Presidential Fitness Challenge for adults to, of all ages  Wink

That's a good one OSH, made me laugh Big Grin

I love KFC one of my favorite restaurants.  Which I could eat fried chicken from anywhere. 

Also reminds me of when Biden supposedly soiled himself while meeting with the Pope at the Vatican  Smile Big Grin

The problem is not P.E. or Trump's proposal. The problem is slip and fall lawyers and  uneducated jurors with a lottery mentality. The idiots make their minds up as soon as they see who has the deepest pockets - the facts don't matter. It's their chance to make somebody a millionaire. Of course, insurance companies almost always have the deepest pockets, which is why they offer so many settlements to fraudsters.

Agreed Hoot, very well said.

Talk about slipping, sliding, and falling. When I was in grade school we had gym a couple days a week.  I got my gym days mixed up. One day I wore a pair of cowboy boots, dress boots, and we had gym that day. We played basketball, I couldn't do nothing, just a sitting duck on the court. Just like my experiences with roller skating and ice skating, I spent a lot of time on the ground that day in gym class! Everytime I'd try to drive around someone with the ball, it was a total wipeout! Lol
