But do you even lift?

I still try to get a couple lifts in a week ha. And a couple runs.

I did yoga yesterday and did cardio/weights today

3 body parts got IcyHot tonight

Already down 5 lbs since Sunday. And did actual cardio and my knee is sore but not intolerable. So we are on the right track

@GreatWhiteNorth do you have any good back/lat exercises? I’m gonna start working those out but I’ve never really done them before

There are better ones out there but for a starting base I would recommend doing Superman’s. Squeeze at the top and hold a two-five count.

Brown’s suggestion on supermans is a great one for lower and mid back strength. For lats, I’d suggest pull-ups. If you can’t do many, get a rubber band assist until you build your strength up. Straight bar rows, over hand or under hand, are also great. Last recommendation for overall back strength and thickness is deadlifts.

Did back/lats on Saturday and cardio rolling hills

Today did 20 minutes actually JOGGING for the first time in ever…2 miles in 21 minutes I’ll take it considering my fat ass. Then did core workout and I want to die

That’s not a bad time at all man. Great job

I gotta drink more water

I gotta drink more water

It’s a constant struggle for me. I had to scale back the pre-work coffee prep because I just end up drinking coffee all day if I don’t limit it.
