The only downside at lest for me is it's a slow return for a few sessions after lockdown. I never get it quite right away from it.

My upper back is letting me know all about it

1st sesh back, just stuck to the treadmill, developed blisters during.

I persevered tho and finished- just like an Olympian would

Our lockdown extended for another week , so no Yoga or Pilates classes until at least next Monday, online classes just don't have the same vibe, I think I'll go for longer walks and maybe a couple of runs in the park instead.

quick sesh, pumped out chest. working way into a more substantial event

I've been only having 1 day off a week from running and weights albeit fairly light ones. Sometimes I wonder if I should rest twice?

Been hanging out with my rebel sports dumbbells that we purchased during second or third lock down.

Thank god for those metal benches with missing sun roof that I can utilize as pull up bars at local oval.

[Deliverance]

Regional gods win again, cannot wait to finally move out of the city.

freeoutdoorfitness.net is how I found where to do my outdoor workouts... they're good enough for maintenance while locked down. Somebody on this forum pointed me to that site, but I can't remember who

How do you find Pilates? A friend of mine said it's really good and worth trying out.

I concentrate on the Yoga, usually do 4-6 classes a week and 2-3 Pilates... love the Pilates, very challenging physically, the studio I go to incorporate small weights into their classes along with body weight exercises, lots of push ups, squats, lunges, burpees etc. After an hour of that I'm absolutely spent but loving it. All done in a heated humidified room as well.

Really really really bummed can't be swimming in some way shape or form on a day like this, and tomorrow.

I was just thinking of getting a inflatable pool for our backyard.

At least something until we return to the beach, wouldn't be much for swimming though I could just chill there on a day like this.
