  • I did the same thing recently with my elbow. I lifted in my 20s but I got busy with work and family in my 30s and tried to start lifting again at 39 and managed to injure my forearm/elbow. It’s damn near impossible to do upper body exercises when you can’t grip the bar or dumbell without elbow pain!

    It’s been like 6 months and it’s finally starting to feel better. My cardio is pretty damn good though because while I couldn’t lift I threw myself at cardio extra hard.

    Can’t let the old creep in! Exercise keeps the old out!













  • I haven’t followed either’s career particularly closely but I like a lot of stuff from both artists. The Imperial March from Star Wars and the dancing scene from MI:2 “Nyah” are some of my favorite songs from movies.

    I don’t know much about Zimmer from beyond his Wikipedia page but I did find this quote (from Wikipedia) regarding his stance on crediting the other musicians who help with the collaborative nature of modern production.

    Originally I had this idea that it should be possible to create some kind of community around this kind of work, and I think by muddying the titles – not having “you are the composer, you are the arranger, you are the orchestrator” – it just sort of helped us to work more collaboratively. It wasn’t that important to me that I had “score by Hans Zimmer” and took sole credit on these things. It’s like Gladiator: I gave Lisa Gerrard the co-credit because, even though she didn’t write the main theme, her presence and contributions were very influential. She was more than just a soloist, and this is why I have such a problem with specific credits.

    Does he say one thing and act another way behind the scenes?
