My goal for 2025 is being active every day for at least 40 mins and a minimum of 4x a week in the gym (2 upper days, 2 lower days).

I went for a run yesterday and I should be in the gym today but we got a soccer game after work and we got the field for a full two hours :wow:

I don’t want to but I gotta skip this gym day.

At least I’m getting active which is the bigger point to be honest. Showing up for yourself every single day and building that identity as a fit person.

I pity folks that don’t like playing sports. Easily the most enjoyable form of exercise.

Bro it’s crazy how you could work out three times a week an entire year to take a two week hiatus for holidays to eat and drink whatever to be humbled once you back in the gym :gucci:

I feel like the fattest out of shape mf in the world. The sets I could do with a breeze kicked my ass
Mmhmm I feel you.


My burpees and box jumps are embarrassing.
It sucks. I think they say 3 weeks of no exercise/strength training sets you back months. You literally can’t stop moving or you lose stamina and gains :aicmon:

Yall don't do stretches or anything? I've never consistently worked out like I assume yall have but I've actually been seeing a lot of content about taking more rest days. They trying to set me up?!:damn:

Yea, I’m very glad I’m doing the morning workouts now. I feel so much more accomplished even before work starts.

Woke up this morning, said my morning prayers then hit the gym. Even better was I didn’t feel rushed in my workouts.

7am PST and I’ve already gotten a good leg day in. Long may this consistency continue.

All my excess holiday bloat is pretty much gone. Now I have 11 weeks before my end of Q1’25 holiday. We locked in.

Cardio capacity goes first then strength.

Cardio capacity comes back first, then strength
