Hi Simo! Doing okay. Hip is almost back to normal and trying to work up to training 3 days a week. Made it two last week and got super busy. Hopefully I will get back on track this time. Thanks for stopping in!

Very hot drought conditions plus a wind storm in town are making extra work right now. If I have to help a guy pull a water well pump this weekend I will probably only lift twice, today and Wed. We will see.

Alive and kicking but are you deadlifting?
Unfortunately no. My 91 yo had some medical issues and then there were the 17 wildfires. So, I have once again fallen off the wagon.

Is your gym air conditioned?
Nope

Woof, you week’s temperatures are 8-10 degrees hotter than here, and you have lots of humidity, too! To help my motivation this week I’m actually doing what I WANT to, including deadlifting twice in one week! The madness! Haha. Along similar lines, maybe if you mirror ActivitiesGuy’s style, picking 3-5 lifts you enjoy and doing just them - 1 or max 2 during a cool time of the day - you’ll find your motivation again.
It’d look something like deadlift one day, bench the next, rows and curls the next, deadlift again but with a different bar/ grip/ something, and so forth. Keep the sessions to 15-20 minutes max and do what Thibaudeau said in an old article for people with very little time to train - lift just enough so you feel like you’ve exercised, but leave the gym/ shed/ garage feeling energized and refreshed instead of drained.
