Essential Random Gym Thoughts Revisited...

Rest from what?

Been doing cardio early morning and weights mid afternoon while cutting. Went from 22% body fat to 11%. Got sick for a week and decided to take another week off because i was still meh with no energy. I should of just push through after i felt better. And honestly, i could of lifted through the sickness as it was an upper respitory issue.

How long didn’t it take to drop your BF that much? How did you measure it?

Always better to get some movement after being sick. Dial it back but still get activity.

Calipers. 3 fold technique. Also took pics and told chatgpt to esitmate it I was only eating 1700 cals a day. My normal cuts are usually 2100. I went more aggressive this cut. Literally ate nothing but proteins and fruits/veggies.

When i started up again after being sick, felt like i havent worked out in months. but i know it wont take long to get back into my groove again.

So i gave myself a 2 week rest after hitting my target weight/goal...the past 4 months i been going hard. Just a friendly reminder, even a 2 week rest sets u back a bit. Never again

Boy I know that feeling, when I injured my back a year or 2 ago. I couldn't lift really for like 2 months and lost all the progress I had.

I told myself after that, never to ego lift cause that's how you lose all the hard work.

Mastered double unders and finally doing crossovers. Im getting the hang of this jumprope shyt and its fun as hell.

Did a 5k run to my gym. Done a full body strength workout (pull-ups, dips, squats, deadlifts, ring rows, push-ups) and a little bit of toes to bars to improve my skill. Now preparing for the 5k run home.
My legs are gonna be sore as hell never combined longer runs with strength training before. Hoping to make a habit out of it though.

Yall ever do those short ROM prison style pushups?

I never do pushups but just gonna come back slow from a shoulder injury.

The run back went pretty good, had to do some walking in between but overall my pace was 5:50/kilometer vs 5:25 on the way to the gym

Calves are killing me right now though, getting out of bed was not fun at all. Luckily I have to walk a lot at work so it'll get better once I move a bit.
Overall not that bad, if the weather allows I might try to do this more often, maybe not combined with a full body workout though

Man...... I havent ate since 2 in the afternoon yesterday. Went to the gym and must have been very tired because I fell asleep right after I took a shower after coming home. Im worried that im not hydrated because I want to go outside and kill this jumprope. Practicing more lcrossovers and double unders. This crossrope shyt is worth the investment. Maybe its the fact that I paid all that money which is why Im probably subconsciously saying this shyt.

Im going to call my eye doctor and ask him about prescription swimmer goggles. I plan on learning how to swim seriously. Ill pay top dollar AS LONG AS I LEARN HOW TO SWIM. My 40th birthday present is going to be able to swim back and forth across the pool like Mike Phelps. I want to have a swimmers built tbh.

Going to the gym and getting in light workouts while injured is a skill in of itself.

Too often I get injured and dial all the way back. Better thing is to keep the routine but swap to something light. Squats for leg extensions for example

Injuries really put me in a bind since like late September but I’m working back up.

Some slippage and regression but nothing a few weeks won’t remedy.

We move.
