Physical, continued

I've noticed lately, about bodily control, that there are two basic realms. Controlling the body is always more difficult than controlling the emotions, but when it comes to the body, there are actions that are uncomfortable, and actions that will make your muscles fail. An action that is uncomfortable, for instance, is having perfect posture. You can sit and stand straight all day and you muscles won't fail; they will just be tired. Lifting heavy weights is different. No matter how balanced you are with pondera, you are still limited to the weights you lift.

Posture is certainly more easy to control, because you are simple modifying the fact that you are uncomfortable. Stretching is a little more difficult, because the effect becomes cumulative. It is more difficult the longer you do it. Lifting weights is harder still, because you muscles eventually fail, which sends somewhat mixed signals to your body. On the one hand, you're telling your body it's easy, but on the hand, you muscles eventually give out. Perhaps I simply haven't fully mastered this level of pondera yet.

It makes me wonder what else ponder has to offer once I master these techniques.
