Depresso/disability
I've lost so much strength and weight since lockdowns, various factors making it incredibly hard to eat enough and stay active. I can feel my hamstrings have tightened and my posture has suffered. The muscle gains I worked for are gone.I don't want to go back to the light weights/exercise band and have to slowly earn years of progress back π Doing anything is hard, being consistent feels impossible and most days I don't even actually want to be alive.
I guess I'll do 10 dumbbell rows on each side and call it a day because I can feel my spine fusing over like Mr Burns. π€
There's sitting yoga poses if that helps.
Maybe it will. It feels like I'm turning to stone
you've got all of us here cheering you on , you're not alone
so many hugs
and keep doing what you're doing π€
Thanks.
Yeah, Iβve got an old shoulder injury that flares too. Itβs so hard to be back at square one (or worse)
