[I tried the seated leg curl machine. Im not 100% sure I set it up right but overall I didn't like it very much. I wanted to try the standing glute kickback machine but decided against it. Maybe I'll try it Wednesday when the gym is a little less crowded. Stretching is going super well. My hips are noticeable tight when I start but by the end of my routine I feel much better. I probably need to do those every day.]

[Kind of just freestyle today. I used to have a really great core routine but I am very rusty. I'm also still acclimatting to a busy gym. My old gym had few visitors during my workouts. I was less insecure about being observed and able to experiment with the equipment. Worrying everyone is looking at my dick makes working out very stressful.]

6/22/26 workout

1.5mi treadmill (3 incline/3.2 speed)

21 floors stairclimber

3x8 Leg Press machine (105lbs)

25min stretching (hips)

[I wanted to use the 45⁰ Squat machine but a couple was kind of hanging out around them. The leg press machine worked fine for what I was looking for. I'm enjoying being able to take my time. Doing a set very slowly and deliberately helps me actually target the muscles I'm trying to work. My chest is still sore from the last workout. I think it peaked yesterday and has started fading today. Im hoping I can do more this next month.]

6/15/26 workout

1mi treadmill

6mi recombinant cycling

20min hip stretching

8min rowing machine

[Took some time off last week due to lack of sleep and stressful work event. Found a stretching app (Bend) that's helped organize my targeted areas. I feel really positive about this workout. I miss weightlifting but that feels months away. I'm more concerned about inflammation prevention.]

6/8/26 workout

1mi treadmill

16/18 floors on stairclimber (had to stop due to shooting pain in right calf)

6mi recombinant bike (lvl 10)

[Didn't feel fully recovered from Fri workout so I took it easy. I need a more well rounded routine. Im accustomed to having less than an hour each day but now I have 2+hrs three times a week. My goal is not muscle gain but just better fitness in general. I know anything I do is better than nothing but it would be easier to commit if I had better defined plans.]

I quite energy drinks back in March this year. Health and financial concerns made me finally give them up. I also quite smoking cigarettes back in January. I switch to smoking small cigars immediately after. At first it was maybe once or twice a day but it quickly became almost as frequent as cigs. I finally stopped smoking those about a month ago.

I still smoke weed and don't intend to stop anytime soon. If my heart and/or lungs are in rough shape I'll have to. I still would probably figure out how to make edibles or tinctures work instead of smoking.

Anyway, I'm happy I've been able to break the habits. I was a pack-a-day smoker from 16-30. I started drinking energy drinks like water 10yrs ago. These were deeply rooted in my daily life. Even with my depression and stress being at an all time high I have been able to fight back the urges.

[Whoa it did not feel like this much in the moment. I hope my body doesnt feel like complete shit tomorrow. I'm especially worried about my left-side chest/lat area. It feels like I have a strand of really weak muscle somewhere in there that's struggling more than the rest of my body. Doing lawnmowers and tricep kickbacks gave me some of the worst sensations the day after. I really thought I would want to row more but I was starting to feel weak. First time doing crunches in literal years. I did them super slow and focused on form/ engaging the right muscle group. All in all I was really pleased with the workout.]

I need to take some before pics. I never think about it until it's too late. I really hate my body right now but it will be nice to look back on my progress.
