    Of course it won't, karma showed you the error of your ways.

    Although I am now wondering that if you doing exercise would also increase my health.

    Only if your knees hurt like a bitch.

    But then again, it could be that only positive traits are shared for safety reasons.

    Well you didn't get a mysteriously crushed left foot at the end of last year by any chance did you?

    Not that I'm aware of, no.

    Cool. We have a telemorphic link with a built-in safety valve.

    Pretty much. Having muscles helps even out the playing field when you're up against pretty boys and rich kids.

    Anyways, hope you feel better soon DE. Remember, eat heavy, lift heavier 8)

    I was going to troll this thread until I saw the watermelon joke at the end. Well done.

    Hope it works out for you DE, but the good news is that if the radiology showed nothing immediately, the big scary stuff has been avoided.

    I'm sure you'll be fine eventually.

    The best way I found to exercise my calves was in a real leg press machine - like this one (except with no woman in it) - that has its safety hinges as high as possible, so your upper body won't be crushed if you keep the safety turned on the whole time (use your hand).

    Then you push the weight up so your legs are straight (and choose one of your legs, that you put so only its toes are resting on the foot thing, while the whole other foot is there for safety.
