Setting new goals. Goal #1: join a gym. Pros: --Will possibly re-ignite workout enthusiasm and intensity --Will enjoy being around/being inspired by other people while training --Can use my lunch hour at work for other pursuits --Oppty to meet other people --Chance to possibly engage in small group training --Can use different exercise equipment --More apt to train on weekends and/or weekday mornings and evenings Cons: --Will cost money (monthly membership fee and then there bullshiat fees) --Will likely require a 12-month contract --Negative attitudes and actions from staff and members --Possibilty of contracting Covid
Day 40 Friday workout. Weed and alcohol tonight. Not a lot of volume but I trained with intensity and I'm sweating. Love it. 2 x 5:00 each set boxing on the punching bag/shadowboxing. No gloves. Skin around my Knuckles are looking a bit knarly. 2 x 50 reps pushups feet on the Swiss ball. 1 x 500 reps jumpropes.
