I do, but that's mainly because my mentality was like, "welp, I'm here, might as well make the most of it. 🤷" my gym was really small at the time, but now my fitness world has expanded so I would like to find new ways to get stronger

Man I'm bad at this! Hey hey everyone! I know I've been bad at posting but I've at least been working out! 😅 First of all, these will seem a little all over the place and slightly inconsistent, because I've ever had access to barbells before so I'm going to have to relearn and reformulate my routines. So far, I'm going to have Upper and Lower days Upper will involve arms and back and a run, and Lower will do core and legs, but no runs (don't want to eat it in front of everyone). Both will be broken down into Push and Pull exercises to ensure that I can work on every aspect. So here's what I've done: Pull -1-Arm Row – 10 reps each arm d - -55# 10 10 10 - seated Bicep Curls d - -30# 5 3* - Side laterals 10 reps d - - 15# 10 10 10 - lat pull down 10 reps m - - 140# 6 5 3 Push -Chest Press – 10 reps max m (slight pinch in back) - -130# 6 5 7 - Standing Shoulder press 10 reps d dw - - 30# 10 10 10 Notes: -So the single letter (d,b,m) stands for Dumbbell, barbell, or machine, respectively. -A * stands for a felt something like a pinch somewhere where I don't think I should have and to make sure I don't injure myself, I've stopped. - 2h or dw, will stand for dumbbell exercises, either I'm 2- handing holding one weight with both hands or I'm duel-wielding by which I mean that I have a weight in each hand. Of course, I'm open to suggestions to fine tune my exercises, if you guys want to weigh in (😏).

It has been the best 2 years of my life. And I'm looking forward to many more years to come, my love.

That's true, however growing up, I never had very much of my own things, so now that I have the chance to, I'd like to treat myself to the occasional cool nerdy object (also staying far away from Hoarder status) OW! Why does my forehead hurt? oh well... * * * OK! So My apologies that it's been a minute (hence why posting regularly is one of my goals! ) My time has been focused on unpacking things and organizing them to where they might currently go. But that being said, Blue and I have been hitting the gym lately! It's going to be an interesting transition, because our new place has it's own private gym, so I'm going to have to finetune my routine so that I can keep up my goals using the new gym layout. But for now, here's what I got! Tuesday, I ran around the block and did 2.58 miles with a 12:30/mile rate. Thursday, Blue and I went to Planet fitness and I did a 2 mile run as well as the following: 1-arm Row: 2 sets of 10 reps with 55 lbs Biceps curls to Shoulder Press: 25 lbs in each hand, I did 2 sets of 10 reps Side Laterals to Forward Raises and back: 15 lbs and I did one set of 5 and the other 3 reps Skull crushers: 10 reps with 35 lbs, and then 10 reps with 40 lbs. I know it's a little all over the place, mainly because I realized that I never workout my shoulders and delts, but also because I've never been to a planet fitness before and I didn't want to be that guy who hoarded all of the various weights. So I did my best not to be awkward about it. Had a good workout over all! And thank you @fitnessgurl and @Blue1323 for calling me out and reminding me to update my challenge!

Ok! I didn't want to lose track of you guys, but we've been moving this whole time. We officially got all of our stuff into the house and now it's the fun game of "Where does everything go, and where did i pack X?" 😅

Hey hey! It's good to be back, my friend! How have you been? Well... once we're done unpacking (and I can find it) I am planning on modding a GameCube so that she can play Sonic Adventure Battle 2 to her hearts content (just don't say anything!) Ha ha ha, if we didn't already have a lot of stuff between her household and mine, that would be a great idea!

I'm glad your husband is OK. Car accidents can be terrifying! But I'm glad to hear that there's little needed to repair it! Also following!

Hey hey! I'm not too sure about a lot of what's going on here, but I'm going to try to keep up and offer my support!

Happy anniversary! You guys are goals!

You got this Darling!

For a guy not very flexible and who thought he had a good core. I was humbled by this video. You should watch it! Hey hey! Thank you so much! I'm happy to be back, I've missed you guys! And I'm happy to have you following! Ha ha ha! I do follow iron boy! And I'll check out Sean Fagan, when I get a chance. Thanks! * * * Day 2! So I ran 2.5 miles in 29.58 mins! Day 3 was a rest day, which is really a packing day because I'm moving in with my darling @Blue1323 on Saturday! Also I had already packed my laptop so all updates are on my phone 😅 Day 4! Leg day! So my routine was as follow: •Goblet Squats: 30 lbs: 15 15 •Weighted Lunges 15 lbs 10 10 •Weighted calf raises: 15 lbs 10 10 •Weighted lateral Lunges 15 lbs 10 10

So much winning! I'm so proud of you!

Day 1 So yesterday was Movie Night with @Blue1323 and we did Yoga with Adrianne's 20 min full body flow followed by her 16 min flexibility video as well (and let me tell you, Yoga is intense!) Day 2(or today) Tonight will be a running night and I'll post my results after! According to the 5k to 10k plan, I'm going to be running 2.5 miles with some mild to moderate intensity.

Hey hey! Thank you! Thank you so much, Artemis! Ha ha ha! I had been with NF for a good couple of years, since the chat room and the 6 week challenges! And yes, you are correct, and that study is sound. I just want to be fit for my future bride and to be in great shape for our future kids. Because of they're anything like how I was when I was a kid, then I'm going to need to be able to catch up! I was a hyper kid! Ha ha ha! Howdy howdy howdy! Thank you Kishi! And yes! I would greatly appreciate the nagging so I found this channel called martial spirit (https://youtu.be/7sLw5dHdRG4?si=i7PWkMC05PMHpPnB) and they seem pretty legit (based on my limited muay Thai knowledge) but I'm more than happy to get more recommendations! Hey hey hey! How's it going, man? I've missed doing them to be honest so I'm glad to jump back into the fold! Yeah, life has been interesting to me, that's for certain. And thank you, @Blue1323 came into my life, seemingly out of the blue (bah dum pshhh). But I've known nothing but happiness and love since she's been in it

Hey hey! Thank you so much! I have truly missed this place. It's good to be back
