Yuck, hoping you get a mild version. My boy has it as well.

It kicked my ass hard for 36hours. Now I’m just in recovery phase.

The wife has it and its holding on. Youngest son probably coming down with it.

Just make sure you take extra good care of yourself for a good while after things start getting better. There can be a nasty phase 2.

Will do… I think I over extended myself yesterday . So I’m planning on being a complete slug today.

I hope you kick it hard. My guess is the bulldog in you will. Do all the things a nurse might tell you to do :wink:

Happy to hear you’re getting better!

From what you’ve posted about them, they’re too tough to let a virus get them down for long

Got any other surgeries waiting in the wings that can knock you out for the next month? If so, get 'em scheduled…

Multiple confessions, all health and lifting-related except 1.

  1. Tabata on a rower fucking sucks. But it’s also awesome.
    1a. My mid-back is hilariously weak

  2. Coming off of my blood pressure meds makes me feel like I’m a lot more responsible for my health than I previously was. Right or wrong, I feel a whole hell of a lot better and my BP is OK.

  3. I think I’m officially part of the sleepless elite. 5 hours last night and I feel better than I do on 8.

  4. I feel better without grains and with lower carbs. Cut grains and reduced carbs to help triglyceride numbers.

  5. Milled flax seed in protein smoothies is awesome from a flavor/fullness and fiber standpoint.

  6. Non-lifting. I still remember all the words to most of ABBA’s greatest hits album and am completely unashamed of it. For the most part I can get through them without losing it, but sometimes I flash back to the car rides with my mama growing up and it gets a little heavy. Still good for the soul, though.

When exactly was your surgery? Because some time ago, I woke up in a bathtub full of ice, with incisions across both shoulders.

Kinda what I’m hoping for. I have an appointment in 6 weeks to see whether or not I need to go back on meds and am hoping they help keep me off. I got a $300 rower on Amazon Prime Day and it doesn’t have too much resistance, so it keeps me from being too fucknuts and cockstrong about it. Just push hard and get it done.
