For about 6 months I was hardcore Nerd Fitness, leveling up, working out, improving my life, and all that jazz. Then somehow it all faded away without me noticing. And here I am several months later realizing that I'm no longer working out or leveling up. It snuck up on me! There wasn't one thing that made me stop, it was a slow slide back into my old life. Which is more sinister than a sudden drop in activity. But I'm ready to jump back in! And this time there won't be a learning curve because I've already immersed myself in NF once before! I'm going to do a 30-day challenge to kickstart my respawn. I will get up at 7am every day and do something physical by 8:30am. Some days this will be a full bodyweight workout, other days it'll be a walk around the neighborhood.

I've sustained a serious wrist injury which means I've had to switch to zombie squats, probably for a few months. The Oly bar I have just so happens to fall exactly onto my shoulders at a point where there is no knurling just shiny slippery chrome and it's causing me issues when I sweat with slipping forward on my arms. I'm thinking maybe wrapping some athletic tape round bar or a towel taped round it something like that might help stop it from slipping. Has anyone got any bright ideas/experience with this sort of thing?
