aramis Posted July 12, 2022 Author Report Share Posted July 12, 2022 Ugh... post run blues hits hard. First week after I did nothing. Okay, regeneration time etc. But after that, I need to start moving. And not like "I should". Its more like "I have an urge". But there is a problem... I somehow grew tired of all the stuff I did earlier. All those exercises seem bland, repetitive (duh!) and wasted effort. Of course I can force myself through this, but do I want to? I have enough other problems and stuff making me miserable to just add another. So, I need to find something new. Right now I'm rebuilding my old bike to try cycling. We'll see how it'll turn out. But in the meantime: Last week were pushups - 5x10 on Monday, 5x11 on Tuesday and so on till Friday. This week (because bike is still in pieces) - pull aparts with exercise band. Monday - 5x10, today I plan 5x12 and so on. Ended doing 5x15. Quote I absolutely CAN run on caffeine and hatred. But only with a dash of milk.

aramis Posted August 4, 2022 Author Report Share Posted August 4, 2022 Aug. 4th Something is happening... and I don't like it. I find myself pretty much avoiding exercising, unable to find something fun to do consistently. I guess it's some sort of a crisis of faith or something. I don't like what's happening, but I don't have enough spoons to power through it right now. I think I'll fall back to essentials. 20 - 30 pushups a day, 5-10 pullups if I feel like it. Gotta live with it. Quote I absolutely CAN run on caffeine and hatred. But only with a dash of milk. Challenges' status: Spoiler Not gonna Challenge anymore for now.

aramis Posted August 25, 2022 Author Report Share Posted August 25, 2022 Just a little info I'm still alive (as if anybody would care) I'm about 80-90% consistent with 2 x 20+ pushups a day. I have quite a lot of move on a daily basis, so I think this is enough for this endospore phase. Some day I will start exercising more, but not today nor tomorrow. I'm comfortable with what I have and I can focus on other areas. I know it's mostly against the Rules of Rebellion, but f*ck it. For now, it has to suffice.
