 Re: Relevance of long tones??

Paul Aviles wrote (jokingly, I suspect) ''So there is no such thing as a good analogy. However, yours would mean that the point of your practice is to have fat lips.''

I may not have been using an analogy Paul. Perhaps my use of the word ''work-out'' baffled you. Maybe I would have been better advised to just use the word ''practice'' instead.

In any event, I was endeavouring to convey the image of oneself in the process of strengthening a particular set of muscles, as would the average person who lifts weights or runs or swims - or whatever - would wish to do.

Notice that I used the word ''average'' to distinguish most participants in exercise, from the serious pumpers of iron, who quite possibly, would be keen to have fat lips, in addition to fat pecs.

Part of Khefren Sackey's query was with regard to the playing of long tones as being boring - a thought with which I thoroughly concur.

I am pleased though, that you see the humour in all of this.
