Conversations about fitness often swerve into the intricacies of biological dynamics, or in these post-Pollan days, agribusiness policy and other such details. At such points I’m reminded of this exchange from American Beauty (Lester is our protagonist with a midlife crises):
- Jim Berkley: “Lester! I didn’t know you ran.”
- Lester Burnham: “Well, I just started.”
- Jim Olmeyer: “Good for you.”
- Lester: “I figured you guys might be able to give me some pointers. I need to shape up. Fast.”
- Jim Olmeyer: “Are you looking to just lose weight, or do you want to have increased strength and flexibility as well?”
- Lester falls back and considers.
“I… I want to look good naked!”
