I've had a good Indiana-style pork tenderloin sandwich, and... Eh?

When you take that pork tenderloin and hammer the crap out of it until it's the size of a dinner plate--and about as thick, it seems like you've missed the point of buying pork tenderloin in the first place.

And then you put it on a bun that is NOT the size of a dinner plate, so you have a sandwich that's 10" in diameter on a bun 4" in diameter. Which means that you have bites of sandwich that are not actually even a sandwich... (Although if you define "between bread" as a sandwich you could argue that any breaded meat is a sandwich--but I'm not going to agree with that).

And maybe I understand that folks like having some bites of sandwich and some bites of non-sandwich. But if you REALLY wanted that, why have it as ONE dish?

The part inside the bun is actually pretty delicious. It's a good mix of ingredients and a good sandwich. Granted, it's damn near vegetarian, because the pork has been hammered so thin there's barely pork between the breading at all.

The part outside the bun? It's basically 90% breading because the pork is so thin, again, that there's barely pork there. It's basically eating deep fried breading... Which is DELICIOUS, hence why we bread and deep fry so many things. But the pork isn't anything more than a vessel to hold breading at that point because it's so thin.

So no... I don't get it.

Bad news that turned into good news.

TLANTA, Ga. (CBS46) Monday marks the three-year anniversary of the fire that brought down a large section of I-85 in Atlanta, closing the highway and crippling traffic for weeks.
It all happened on March 30, 2017 near the intersection of Georgia 400. No one was injured in the fire but traffic was so bad, drivers abandoned their vehicles and left them on the roadway, opting to walk to nearby areas.
It took six weeks for crews to rebuild and reopen the collapsed portion of I-85, long ahead of schedule. The highway fully reopened on May 12 of that year.
Basil Eleby was accused of starting the fire. He later graduated from a transition program and was able to avoid charges.

That section of I-85 is north of me maybe 2 miles, 6 lanes of freeway, they left the old freeway built around 1955 parallel to it. They rebuilt it in record time. I was glad I was not living here when it happened. The guy who caused it completed a drug rehab program and appeared to be en route to a productive life.

We use the old freeway to access the new freeway now, except it usually was clogged with traffic anyway. Not now.

I’ve been jogging/walking the steps in my house since my gym is closed down. It is 16 steps from the bottom to the top. I go for 30 minutes but I’ve never counted how many trips up and down I take. I always figured it was about 100 and probably over a 100. The other day I decided to count my reps. I was disheartened to see it was only 83 reps (I consider a rep to be going all the way up and then back down).

I did it just now and improved to 86. It sounds sorry to say I’m not even averaging 3 trips per minute but I can tell you when I’m done I’m dripping sweat and my legs are jelly. I’d like to work my way up to 100.

Schnitzel is delicious as well. Not too far off, the pairings are really the material difference. . The pork tenderloin sandwich isnt meant to be pork tenderloin at its finest, but the glorious medley of so many simple luxuries at a low price point. I like how the bun is diminutive, almost a throw away, delivery device for the mayo, red onion and pickles.

It's why an Italian beef sandwich is so good, despite being nothing special on its face. The medley is fabulous.

Steps are WAY harder than a walk, run, treadmill, etc. I recall when my brother who lives in Texas was bringing his son out here to CA and we were talking about going for a hike. I picked one that was 7 miles total, and he's like "Oh yeah, we go for distances like that ALL the time." He didn't realize that gaining 2000 ft elevation on a hike was FAR more important than the distance of the hike, because they didn't really have hills in the Corpus Christi area.

If you assume your steps are somewhere near average (7.5" rise), 16 steps is a 10' elevation gain. 83 trips would be 830' elevation gain. Given that you're ONLY going up and down and doing all that within 30 minutes? That's a solid workout.

Running steps in basketball practice was the worst torture possible. At least with lines, or deep sixes, seventeens or whatever teams called them, you weren't running the risk of tripping, skinning, or otherwise flirting with fantastic injury.

It is incredible conditioning though.

Thanks. Because I know it certainly FEELS like a good workout. I don’t feel like I’m loafing through it even though my pace naturally slacks off the longer I go.

I do steps in the park after jogging/running. I can job quite a ways, but steps ...

The good news is my legs held out in baseball fantasy camp and I have some hops back.

I'm doing at least 100 push ups a day also.

I have a circuit I do in regards to lifting. 20 pushups, 20 dumbbell curls, 12-15 lateral dumbbell raises for shoulders, 20 air squats, 20 sit ups, and 20 pull ups on the Total Gym. That’s a circuit and I do 6 circuits. I do that every other day in between the days I do steps or jog or hike or whatever. It’s a good workout for me.

I'm doing a lot of 12 and 16 oz curls.
