Feb. 25 and 26, 2021
I got lazy and didn't exercise.
Still followed my calorie restrictions, so that's a big win there.
TBH, working the front line during a pandemic with a bunch of loony toons can get the best of me. Some days I get home and don't want to do anything. Good thing I got a conscience about that as after a short break I'm re-invigorated.

I'm down 2 lbs. this week, about f'ing time. Some of that will be muscle loss at this point but at least the weight is not going up anymore.

Holy fawk...damn near shat my drawers this morning reading the news feed my gym was going to open.
I've been fooled before, read the fine print, and called the gym to confirm. Lo and behold, they actually picked up the phone (they did not the 1st shut down) and I talked to an actual human.
Brian gets to go to the gym Thursday March 4, 2021!!!
No circuit training, no running on the treadmill nor "intensity exercise" (srs), and you have to wear masks all the time inside. Easy peezy.
I'll suck that up to be able to train again.
I'm not quite sure what their interpretation of "intense exercise" is but if anyone there is gonna give me flak for having 8 bills on the leg press the 1st day, I'm just gonna reply that's open to interpretation and that this is just warming up for me.
Since the rules will be well laid out and we'll all have to wear masks this means I can relax a bit and not enforce them when I'm there.
I wonder if I'm going to tear up (cry) like I did the last re-opening...:p
Looks like Thursday's leg day! :)

20 Elliptical (cardio while wearing a mask is a very sweaty and wet endeavor now).
Couldn't ask for a better session to re-start. 4 bills squatting and max weights for everything else and the only thing that I can tell sucks is my endurance and that will come along soon enough.
I ratted out 3 non-mask wearing gym members and the staff took care of them. I personally asked another 2 members to put on their mask and that went off without a hitch.
If I'm doing a full-blown leg day and cardio you motherfukkers can suck it up too. The rules are the rules and I'm in no mood to listen to special snowflakes anymore.
I'm already aching and I'm loving it!
