Awesome rainstorm!

Just did 50 mins resistance training. Didn’t think lateral lunges were too hard, but nearly pulled a muscle sitting down

i feel like im only days away in training in being able to do a one leg deep squat. rn its just the balance, i can squat with one leg but only 90 degrees at knee. once i get low enough that i have the straighten the floating leg i find it hard to balance

I gotta pick up training, with work and school I barely have the motivation to go train

im finding lifting weights in an actual workout format seeming like alot to do, 10 reps 3 sets 8 different exercises and a minute in between each set. lol i feel like ill be lifting all day, i used to usually just do 50 or so dumbbell curls and call it a day but now i gotta plan out how to go about it when theres so many moves

Had a shitty workout today. I ran for 35 minutes on my treadmill but I felt anxious through out the workout. Im not giving up on Effexor XR, i think I need a dose increase since im on the lowest possible dose.

oh, that sucks that you felt anxious. maybe increasing the dose would be a good idea.

I just had a 50 min resistance training workout. Every workout is an achievement.

i really need to work on my diet through. got a goat pie and very rich chocolate milk today.

@TheCanuk do you ever notice a feeling that cardio seems to make other aspects of life easier, even mental tasks, maybe its the endorphins or even blood flow/ heart related but i notice it for me.

whenever i stop putting miles in i feel like i get stuck in life just laying in bed, when i walk/jog/run for 30+ minutes i always want to come back to it the next day, im getting back on track now tho and im gonna have to find a way to do it daily regardless as breaks break the routine literally, even having to move my treadmill for a day i end up losing routine

Hey ciggy. Yes, 100%. Cardio exercise improves blood flow to your brain. I feel the best mentally right after I finish a good run. The “Runners High” is a real thing.

I didn’t have much in me. But made myself at least get on the treadmill. I did 6 mins fast walking.

Does anyone know, my treadmill is making a noise. It’s not that old. What should I do . Thank you. I have not oiled it regularly.
