I’m back in business! Just busted out a great 30 minute full body workout and feeling my spirits lifted as heck honestly.
Remembering where I’ve been and where I am right now, doing the stuff even when I’m down. Had a moment but here it is

Monday - Did upper body today. Already feeling sore in my arms. Getting abit better feeling back muscles when I do exercises so that’s good. My dumbbell weights have also increased overtime. Sometimes I surprise myself haha it’s a good sign I guess. Tmrw is cardio and I’m looking forward to that! :muscle:

Still keeping committed to my July Challenge.

  • Sunday was my rest day.
  • Yesterday (Monday) I did the circuit from Saturday as I enjoyed it so much.
  • Today (Tuesday 19th) I did a 30 min run, 500 skips and 2 x rounds of 11 push ups, 38 crunches and 40 weighted squats (July daily challenge).

Physically feeling ok, but mentally I’m going through a really sad and flat phase… trying my hardest to push through and fake it until I make it. Really hoping it passes soon as its a shitty way to be feeling…

Thank you, they’re my favs because I like leggings to go just below my knee.

Staying physically active will not make your emotional funk any worse. That’s where the thinking leg of the thoughts/feelings/actions is important. You can decide to act even when you don’t feel like acting. Good for you!

Exactly, 100% agree!
For me, moving my body, above all else, is for my mental health. The physical benefits really are a bonus. Exercise literally keeps me sane and it’s so important to push myself on the days I least want to do it.
Very similar to how I handle recovery and sobriety - I’ve never woken up and regrettednot drinking the night before… I’ve never finished a workout and regretted doing it. Well :thinking: except the death by burpee challenge… that one is in a league of its own :joy:
