After some minor surgery I'm feeling much better (finally!), so I'm getting fit again. I finally tried the outdoor Fitness Court on campus. Apparently they're nation-wide.

It seems like it might work for TRX workouts... anyone here still remember WorkHardNoExcuses? She was into TRX. My original fitness inspiration. I must have pissed her off as she eventually stopped talking to me. My loss. Her memory still inspires me, enough to try some TRX moves, but very hesitantly since I don't know WTF I'm doing, and I do not want to fall on that hard concrete. Guess I need to re-watch that beginner's TRX video on youtube.

Still, always good to Do Something For The First Time. At the very least it's a good place to do some hangs and attempt chin-ups, and it's for the best that I learned how bad my box jumps suck. Some things to work on. Here's to you, WHNE, wherever you are.

It's been a while but I'm curious as to how many of my followers still keep their Tumblr mostly fitness focused?

I've been thinking of using this again for keeping myself accountable. Thoughts? Ideas? Bueller? Bueller? Bueller?

The cycle: add more plates; injure self; take plates off; slack.  Repeat.  

As of this week, all the plates are finally back on, and I also needed the wrist weights to up the dbell floor press to 55# for some 8-rep sets.  Small numbers for many, but for me, the most I’ve pressed in 6 months. Felt good!  

I remember the same cycle years ago, in my first fitblr... injure, slack, rebuild.  Back then, once I finally had all the plates back in use, I posted the Picard quote, “We fall back... and we fall back.  Not again! The line must be drawn here, this far. No further!”  Meaning, no more slacking. I even remember WHNE liking that post...  maybe I remember it because, of course, it didn’t last--I did injure myself again, and the plates did come back off, again.  And...  the line was drawn there!  No, back there!  A little further!  I’m no Picard, I guess.  

But I like to think I can learn from mistakes, and I think my mistake, repeatedly, has been push-ups.  I don’t know why exactly but I think those are what hurt my shoulder.  More floor press, no push-ups, and we’ll see how things go. 

Meanwhile, my running suffers, because I haven’t resigned myself to using the... treadmill.  Next cold front, though... treadmill it is!

MIA

Well, I took a 9 month hiatus from life pretty much. I lived in a false reality. I was on vacation every day. I questioned my morals and shocked who I am deep down. I went through a dramatic (& traumatic) breakup with the man I thought I would marry. I gave up on who I am and forgot who I was. I got a job in a city I don't want to live in. However, this turned out to be the biggest blessing. I moved to downtown Chicago from the burbs. I picked myself up off the bathroom floor and am beginning to figure shit out again. I still stumble, because I'm far from getting it all under control, but I'm better. I finally have a job I love going to every day, where I have amazing support for my future, and am for once happy with what I have RIGHT NOW. I'm not trying to move 12 steps ahead at all times. I'm in it. Every day. Just trying. My weight went up to the highest I've been in about 7 years, but slowly I've been back at it. I got a membership at a gorgeous (& affordable) gym in the city, I'm back on myfitnesspal, and figured I should get back on here as well. There are many gone who always inspired me, but I'm sure they are still being the amazing people I always thought them to be. So this is me.. Starting over.
