The thin man's personality and emo tional stability . often nerve-wraeked and high-strung, are too often dictated by his poor physical condition. Tiredness. low stamina and feelings of lassitude go against the inherent high metabolism There sits the thin man too tired todo anything yet too revved up to sit still. The explosion is expected when it comes, and it shows as irritableness, irrational impulses. and often stomach ulcers. Ott the physical aspect. the thin man has an increased risk of developing hypothermia as well as a greater chance of internal injury from an external shock to the body. If there isn't enough fat to protect the body's organs there would certainly not be enough fat to survive without food for very long. On top of everything. maybe the thin man does want to look like Charles Atlas. The thin man's routine of exercise requires longer than the 15 minutes alloted to males of other bodily shapes. This is because each exercise must be done with slow deliberate movements to help increase muscle definition and add dimension. Here are a few exercises which may help add bulk and definition to an otherwise shapeless physique.

Grasp the end ofthe towel in both hands, feet apart and knees slightly bent. With arms extended you should be leaning may from the door edge. Now pull the towel as if toward your waist, resisting with the lean of your body. Slowly bring yourself upright then slowly return to the lean position and start again. Maintain a steady tug on the towel as your body moves toward and away from the door. Begin with five and increase to 15. 3.

Though it will take six to eight weeks for an increase in size to be noted with a tape measure, the visual difference will be noticeable from the beginning, as saggy chest and arms take on new form. The stamina. as reflected for a greater zest for life, will also be apparent from the start. Chronicle appointments 2.N-r-tthitiisthewmtderNlN "Yes.

He is also a frequent contributor to such Fairway Group publications as Highlights Magazine, Profile, and Exchange. Bryson, a 1984 graduate of Conestoga College, has lived most of his life in the Twin Cities and eagerly anticipates the challenge of covering the Waterloo sporting scene. After a short stint with the Gravenhunt News, Bryson joined the Chronicle staff in May of 1985 and has covered city hail and general news with the paper since that time.

Also, because so much ot our happiness depends on being alie to look forward to something. this is all the more necessary, especially it our pres- eat happens to be bled. Some people overdo this and concen~ trate so much on the future that they torego enjoying the present, These are the people who enjoy having a lot of money but never spend it, or who buy works of art as an investment and not to enjoy their beauty. They like to have the best silverware. china and linen. and then put it away and never use it. They are the ones who will probably end up saying, "I waited too long to start living." - Those that do, stand out from the crowd. They're not pollyannas. They have their problems, too. their ups and downs, but that irrepressible joie-de- vivre keeps bubbling up all the time. But why so few? What happens to us during our lifetime is in direct relation to the way we spend our time. We find millions of people with Have you ever noticed how many people seem to be waiting to be happy at some future time? They seem to think that happiness is something one must save up for, which leads one to think that they equate happiness with money. Few people develop an awareness of the joy of living beyond the superficial pleasures of life. "No, It's Just too noisy and too crawled for me.

The Greeks had a word for this pallid existence - they called it Hades!" Then there are those who are contin~ ually preparing for a future that they don't seem to want to achieve. These are the perpetual students who always seem to require one more course before they are ready to take the final plunge and who spend their time dithering on the brink. What is living all about? Those that don't know are not really living, they are merely existing. These are outer-direct, ed people who allow things to happen to them. instead of making things happen: they allow their present circumstances to affect their thinking, instead of having their thinking affect their cir, cumstances. They don't know that they can alter their lives by altering their attitudes of mind. The people who really think about living to the full spend their time wisely and enjoy it today. and at the same time, prepare for what they fully expect to be a pleasant and exciting future. Our tomorrows will be not unlike our today's. But life wastes itself while we are preparing to live. There is no better time to start living than right now.
