Hi guys! For the past… ever, I’ve been putting my health and fitness aside. I tried a few times to get into the habit of exercising to no avail. I’m not overweight or anything but neither am I strong or flexible as I want to be. Mainly because I don’t want to have health troubles later in life. HOWEVER, to get started I needed to google of course and… best 10 xyz, do this, don’t do this, you breathe wrong, you stand wrong, you do everything wrong, this is the only solution. All of these can be found about anything related to fitness. How does one get started with all this nonsense, misinformation and clickable? What’s even real anymore? Thank you in advance :)
I recently started bringing my e-reader to the gym, and it has made it so much more enjoyable. I used to be a gym rat but I don’t find it as enjoyable anymore, but I still love reading. After a set I treat myself with a page or two, depending on how much rest those muscles need.
Been a few months of honestly inconsistent workouts and I’m halfway there to my PRs already.
As a bonus, I have cut down on my social media use as well. No downtime between sets means I don’t check lemmy, tiktok, or whatsapp.
