Weight training is really good for this, too. You can really hurt. It feels meaningful.

Yea, I see that too! I could do better on the weight training.

My question with this is what do you do it for (other than aesthetics and ease of life)?

For running, I have a race to compete in and a PR to beat, but it seems like weight lifting doesn't have as much of these events for casuals. Thoughts?
