Finished up my program last week as planned and took the weekend off. I was planning to got to the gym this morning and tomorrow morning before our 3 week vacation starts on Wednesday. That got derailed as I may have been exposed to covid Saturday morning. I dont have any symptoms so far but Im not going to the gym out of caution for others there. Timing of this could not be worse. My wife has been looking forward to this all year. She is going to be devastated if it gets derailed because I got the covid. Carry on the good work fellas.

I got into the game late this year (about 6 weeks ago). Down 17 lbs with diet and exercise. Hitting the lifetime fitness near the house about 6 days a week. Cardio mostly, but started kettle bells, concept rower, concept ski erg along with elliptical (MMA setting is a butt kicker).

Feel better already and pants are fitting a lot better.

Elbow tendonitis is a mood killer though. Need to find time to get it fixed.

Good for you Chew!

That elbow tendonitis is hard to get rid of. Every time I get it I try and rest it (RICE) and it feels better. But, I'm kinda hard headed and will keep trying to work through it.

If you codgers don’t do anything else, try the following for a while first:

Brisk 30 min walk

Pushups

Jumping squats (can do while walking)

Slam Ball (Get a 20 or 30lb slamball, start from a squat, lift as high as you can go overhead on tip-toes, then slam to the ground)

Some kinda dumbell curls


If you can do this twice per day even better.

Cable fly/hammer curl bar

Well.... Its been 8 -9 days since I contributed to this tread but made it this morning for Cardio and chest.

I have had zero energy and little sleep the last few weeks and finally figured out it was the latest medication I was prescribed to help with sleep. Been on it for a couple months and noticed I had been gaining weight like crazy and after a blood panel the doctor had me taken off the medicine asap.

Back at the grind and still chipping away at finding better sleep lol Tried my APAP machine for the first time in a while and only made it to 1am with it on. Might be trying a new mask soon

150,

Sorry to hear you're having trouble getting some rest. I' guessing you've done a sleep study? Sounds to me like you may have been overmedicated. I'm no Dr., but I have watched Grey's Anatomy. LOL!

Thanks for the re-motivation fellers. Been nursing an injury for the past couple months but I'm ready to move on and get back into it. The summer heat doesn't help but I am tired of making excuses.
