  <p><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:Arial'>When I was a little kid,
  we boys all swam naked at the YMCA.&nbsp;The one exception was when moms and
  sisters were invited for special events.&nbsp;Now after some 40 years, I
  still remember the one kid who forgot it was Family Swim Night, and
  innocently strolled out of the showers and into the pool room, and the only
  suit he had on was his birthday suit. He did the fastest about-face I've ever
  seen, and we never let him live it down.</span><span style='font-size:11.0pt'>
  <o:p></o:p></span></p>
  <p><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:Arial'>What's more, we were
  still swimming nude in boy's gym class when I graduated from <st1:place
  w:st="on"><st1:PlaceName w:st="on">Charlotte</st1:PlaceName> <st1:PlaceName
   w:st="on">High School</st1:PlaceName></st1:place> in 1970.&nbsp;Back dives
  were especially revealing. I know this sounds a bit hard to believe, but it
  was true: nude swimming was the rule all the way through grade 12 in the <st1:place
  w:st="on"><st1:City w:st="on">Rochester</st1:City>, <st1:State w:st="on">NY</st1:State></st1:place>
  Public Schools. In this near mirror-image of <i>The Emperor's New Clothes,</i>
  only the gym teacher had shorts on. And, I am reliably <span class=GramE>informed,</span>
  only the girls got to wear swimsuits in their gym classes.</span><span
  style='font-size:11.0pt'> <o:p></o:p></span></p>
  <p><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:Arial'>But not us.</span><span
  style='font-size:11.0pt'> <o:p></o:p></span></p>
  <p><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:Arial'>Of course we all showered
  together as well. In a scene reminiscent of a juvenile prison movie, after
  gym class we were absolutely compelled to shower.&nbsp; In the scant three
  minutes given to us for the purpose, enough teen <span class=GramE>trauma</span>
  was doubtless accumulated to last a lifetime.&nbsp;I mean, how do you cope
  with such a situation?&nbsp;Everybody had to do it, so evidently we
  managed.&nbsp;And we learned valuable skills in the process: one of my
  acquaintances taught me how to get dressed without drying first.&nbsp;
  Another showed me how to remove paint from the Army-green lockers using
  &quot;Right Guard&quot; spray deodorant as a solvent.&nbsp;Still another kid
  of the nerdy type was justifiably afraid his books would be swiped, so he
  showered with his briefcase right next to his ankles.</span><span
  style='font-size:11.0pt'> <o:p></o:p></span></p>
  <p><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:Arial'>Our drab high school
  locker room had a colorful attendant, an elderly Scotsman best known for his
  unique way of selling required sports accessories from the equipment cage.
  When you heard the cry &quot;Socks and jocks! Socks and jocks!&quot; you knew
  that &quot;Scotty&quot; was working his beat. (Could have been worse; I'll
  bet in <st1:City w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Aberdeen</st1:place></st1:City>
  he'd have been calling, &quot;Kilts and cabers! Kilts and cabers!&quot;)</span><span
  style='font-size:11.0pt'> <o:p></o:p></span></p>
  <p><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:Arial'>He died in the middle of
  my junior year.</span><span style='font-size:11.0pt'> <o:p></o:p></span></p>
  <p><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:Arial'>It did not help that my
  high-school gym teacher took a special dislike to me. I was about six-one and
  weighed, maybe, 100 pounds.&nbsp;This guy, an obese ex-Marine, was also the
  wrestling coach.&nbsp;He combined the only two marketable skills he possessed
  into a unique method of selecting sparring teams: He'd line us up by height
  and have us count off by twos.&nbsp;This meant, of course, that I inevitably
  ended up with a 6 foot, one inch 220 pound varsity football lineman as my
  wrestling &quot;partner.&quot;</span><span style='font-size:11.0pt'> <o:p></o:p></span></p>
  <p><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:Arial'>I therefore developed the
  fasted sit-out in the history of wrestling.</span><span style='font-size:
  11.0pt'> <o:p></o:p></span></p>
  <p><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:Arial'>I guess it was the
  ancient Greeks that seem to have been the original obsessive sports nudists.
  Long before string bikinis or Spandex, they were quite literally parading
  around <span class=SpellE>starkers</span>.&nbsp;These same exercise fanatics
  that brought us the Olympics are surely to blame for <st1:Street w:st="on"><st1:address
   w:st="on">Jack La Lane</st1:address></st1:Street>, Charles Atlas, and my
  brothers.&nbsp;At least these three were decently attired (except, perhaps,
  for Charles Atlas, but that was what sold his method in the comic books.)</span><span
  style='font-size:11.0pt'> <o:p></o:p></span></p>
  <p><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:Arial'>Between the public
  schools, the YMCA, and my brothers (and later my exercise-nut of a son), I
  have therefore developed an enduring dislike of all things related to
  sport.&nbsp; It's not that I haven't tried.&nbsp;I've successfully sat
  through black-and-white TV wrestling, watching my grandfather cheer the
  Gallagher Brothers.&nbsp;I've logged a few school homecoming games live, and
  sat on the bleachers to watch <st1:City w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Rochester</st1:place></st1:City>'s
  Red Wings minor league baseball team get clobbered repeatedly. I remember Cal
  <span class=SpellE>Ripken</span> Jr. in one of his first games while the stadium
  commentator wondered aloud if he'd ever amount to anything like his father.
  It is true that the Wings got a lot better, but my memories are primarily
  long before Earl Weaver managed them.&nbsp;I mean, I remember us cheering for
  aging power hitter Luke Easter. (Remember him? </span><span style='font-size:

  <p><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:Arial'>So, like all the neighborhood
  boys, I played ball all summer.&nbsp; I mean, that's what boys did.&nbsp; For
  us, born and raised within smelling distance of the Eastman Kodak Company's
  main plant, it was KPAA (Kodak Park Athletic Association) softball league. It
  was free, you got a cool shirt, and if you won, you played &quot;under the
  lights&quot; at the <st1:place w:st="on"><st1:PlaceName w:st="on">Kodak</st1:PlaceName>
   <st1:PlaceType w:st="on">Park</st1:PlaceType></st1:place> field.&nbsp;That
  field is now buried under a photographic processing building, but once it was
  the scene of squashed mustard packets, hyper starry-eyed kids, and loud
  camera-laden parents.&nbsp;My teams never got even remotely close to being in
  the playoffs, but my brother's did.&nbsp; It figures.</span><span
  style='font-size:11.0pt'> <o:p></o:p></span></p>
  <p><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:Arial'>For the first 15 years of
  his life, my older brother was a round-shouldered, horn-rimmed
  glasses-wearing, skinny little twerp.&nbsp;The he started working out in our
  basement.&nbsp;Like a mushroom planted in the dark and forgotten, he grew out
  of sight. Pretty soon he was a changed guy.&nbsp;Weight lifting had utterly
  transformed him. Good diet, natural maturation, and contact lenses didn't <span
  class=GramE>hurt,</span> but that Sears and Roebuck 20-dollar weight kit did
  wonders.</span><span style='font-size:11.0pt'> <o:p></o:p></span></p>
  <p><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:Arial'>The secret, of course, is
  that he spent the time using it.</span><span style='font-size:11.0pt'> <o:p></o:p></span></p>
  <p><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:Arial'>And that brings me to my
  real point:</span><span style='font-size:11.0pt'> <o:p></o:p></span></p>
  <p><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:Arial'>You either talk about
  doing it, or you do it.&nbsp;I do not like to exercise. But I like even less
  having a pudgy belly, backaches, skinny arms, and no chest.&nbsp; That is why
  I exercise.&nbsp;Of course you and I know it is good to exercise, in the same
  way that smokers know it is good not to smoke.&nbsp;But knowledge is not
  enough.&nbsp;You have to experience it.</span><span style='font-size:11.0pt'>
  <o:p></o:p></span></p>
  <p><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:Arial'>My exercise hints?&nbsp;Thought
  you'd never ask:</span><span style='font-size:11.0pt'> <o:p></o:p></span></p>
  <p><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:Arial'>1) Exercise for a really
  honest reason: vanity.</span><span style='font-size:11.0pt'> <o:p></o:p></span></p>
  <p><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:Arial'>2) Exercise with a friend
  (or relative, if you are desperate) who has the same goals you do. This is
  very important, and may be essential, to stay on the wagon.</span><span
  style='font-size:11.0pt'> <o:p></o:p></span></p>
  <p><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:Arial'>3) Exercise to
  music.&nbsp; I recommend the Who, the Rolling Stones, good blues (I like
  Clapton and B.B King), early Beatles and maybe a little <span class=SpellE>Badfinger</span>
  for the rest of you eclectic ex-hippies.</span><span style='font-size:11.0pt'>
  <o:p></o:p></span></p>
  <p><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:Arial'>4) Start small.&nbsp; I
  began, at my son's insistence, with crunches.&nbsp;When I started, I thought
  thirty was a lot.</span><span style='font-size:11.0pt'> <o:p></o:p></span></p>
  <p><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:Arial'>5) Work up.&nbsp; After
  six years, I now can do 2,100 crunches in <span class=GramE>under</span> 50
  minutes. I once saw a documentary about an Olympic athlete that did 3,000
  crunches a day, in thirty minutes.&nbsp;She was about five feet tall and weighed
  almost nothing, except for her muscles. That's my goal, then (no, not to be a
  woman): 3,000 crunches.</span><span style='font-size:11.0pt'> <o:p></o:p></span></p>
  <p><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:Arial'>6) Invest as little money
  as possible. A cheap exercise bike and a pair of dumbbells is a good
  start.&nbsp;Maybe add a weight set and a bench.&nbsp;Check garage sales, for
  a lot of people purchase this stuff, and that act constitutes their entire
  exercise program: the buying of equipment.&nbsp;Consequently, you can outfit
  your garage, attic, or basement for very little cash.</span><span
  style='font-size:11.0pt'> <o:p></o:p></span></p>
  <p><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:Arial'>7) Better yet, keep it
  all in your living room.&nbsp;If you see it, you will use it.&nbsp;Still
  better, keep all your gear within a remote's distance of your TV.&nbsp;You
  can watch the tube while you bike.&nbsp;You can kill an hour of brainless
  network programming and bike miles in the process.</span><span
  style='font-size:11.0pt'> <o:p></o:p></span></p>
  <p><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:Arial'>8) Keep a record. My
  brother told me that you need to simply beat your own record to be a
  winner.&nbsp;That's a pretty profound point.&nbsp;I would never have gotten
  to 2100 crunches unless I'd wanted to beat 2,000, or 1,000, or 30.</span><span
  style='font-size:11.0pt'> <o:p></o:p></span></p>
  <p><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:Arial'>9) Vary your
  program.&nbsp;Although I am a crunch-<span class=SpellE>meister</span>, I
  also use dumbbells for my arms and chest.&nbsp;I happen to already have
  strong legs from childhood paper routes, chasing my brothers so I'd not be
  left behind, biking everywhere as a teenager, and living at the top of a hill
  in <st1:State w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Vermont</st1:place></st1:State>
  as a car-less young man. So I don't use the bike as much as you might want
  to. I also walk home with my groceries, and try for a four-mile walk along
  the nearby <st1:place w:st="on">Erie Canal</st1:place> on alternate days to
  my crunching. Again, take a friend, or a dog, for safety, companionship, and
  mutual encouragement.</span><span style='font-size:11.0pt'> <o:p></o:p></span></p>
  <p><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:Arial'>10)&nbsp; Watch the cable
  exercise channels, especially if you are a beginner.&nbsp;Seeing all those
  supple, writhing bodies exercising with one great smile is stimulating.&nbsp;
  Use Richard Simmons exercise tapes, Jane Fonda workout tapes, any workout
  tapes that appeal to you.&nbsp;Personally, I think the porno industry should
  come up for air for a minute, and make totally nude workout tapes.</span><span
  style='font-size:11.0pt'> <o:p></o:p></span></p>
  <p><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:Arial'>And that brings us full
  circle: it really is all about nudity.&nbsp;Especially how you, with your
  clothes off, look in the mirror.</span><span style='font-size:11.0pt'> <br>
