Gym
I got to the gym tonight around 8:30. Ran my usual 500+ calorie half-hour.
Did reverse curls and this rowing exercise, but did things differently. Did a set until I couldn't do another rep. Reduced the weight. Did another set until I couldn't do another rep. Reduced the weight. Did another set until I couldn't do another rep. Reduced the weight. So on and so forth, until there wasn't anything left to do.
Makes the arms BURN! Feels GREAT! Upper chest is really filling out.
On a totally different note, I looked up what William "The Refrigerator" Perry (Chicago Bears - Superbowl XX) weighed at his peak. Oh crap. He and I are are the same weight and he stood 6'2". I'm only 5'5" tall!

Sure you could.
My typical routine at the gym is I first run for a half-hour on an elliptical crosstrainer. According to the machine, I run about 2-1/4 miles and burn 500+ calories doing it.
After that, I use a number of different machines to build my chest, my triceps, and my calves.
I never feel embarrassed at the gym (or at a nude beach). Some people LIKE the way I look, and that's without the exercise. And, if they don't, it's too freakin' bad.

You're STILL strong.
