I had to not go to the gym this week because my wife and I have had meetings with realestate agents and builders about our new house after work every day.
Why is this a fitness victory? Because I’m PISSED that I had to miss a whole week of workouts. Like providing for my family and not having my daughter grow up in a glorified shoebox is important and all but 2 years ago going to the gym was something I just didnt do, now I get annoyed if I cant.
I’m back in the gym after extensive time away because of injuries and health, and my strength is returning rapidly. I consider that a victory!
I’ve been consistently going to the gym every other day for 3 months now, haven’t done that in about 5 years
Back on my bike for 10 miles at a shot, 13-14mph avg. With stops to do pullups 15-20 3 times per ride.
I’m 9 months out of knee surgery, so getting back to this point feels great.
Broke my foot running June 2022. Stress fracture. Doctors xrayed it in August and ultrasounded it in September and told me essentially that i was faking it. I still had to walk around on it all the time including 15 minutes of my commute to work.
They did a quick MRI in December 2022 and wow, actually it was broken!! Imagine that.
Since it was so fucked up from walking on it for 6 months with no support, they told me that it was finally healing and they couldn’t do much now. Finally was not painful enough to run in April 2023, but we bought a house and started a full strip and renovation.
I finally started running again with my dog after 1.5 years. Only a few times a week for a few km, but it feels good
I played 9 holes of golf tbis morning carrying my bag and then went and trained legs at the gym after
