Mr Peabody. Sherman please tell me your not going to try and defend the archaic ways of the past again tonight 

Sherman. No way Mr. Peabody, and besides we are pressed for time this evening 

Sherman, the thing I love about the future is, the way we now have the ability to monitor our marginal gains, before tracking our training progress we were left in the dark of sorts..Everyone talks about the good old days, and we’ll tend to romanticize it. Back in the measurable wattage meant carrying one of these hideous things strapped to our bodies.

Mr Peabody. Really Sherman that looks heavy as fuck.

 

Sherman, and can you even imagine having one of these ancient wired devices strapped to your handlebars..

I mean really not a lot of measurements going on here, and sadly people paid good money for them when every one you see here is basically the same. 

Mr Peabody. Yep Sherman sometimes we don’t know how good we got until we step back in time and look where we came from. 

Sherman, that’s for sure Mr Peabody, technology is pretty rad!
