I’ll try to post again. It’s been almost 1 year post needle. I lost size and strength pretty rapidly. I’m about back to where I was before I stopped strength wise, but not muscle volume. Everyone thinks they will be different. I thought I would retain all the muscle I had. Not the case, things others said @hankthetank89 makes sense. I really miss the muscles!

I woke up 229lbs. Did one hour on the peloton. Went to the littlest one’s basketball game, and then hit the weights at the gym. Just a BUNCH on cable pulldowns, then on the some pull-ups, and finally some db curls.

Today was awesome. Plans totally shot because I slept until 11:40, had to be at the other son’s game at noon. The PSA is 30 minutes away. Haha, I was only 10 minutes late. Hit the gym afterwards and managed to hit my working weights on the reverse hack after not doing it for months. Felt like I could have done more!

Can’t shake this congestion. Should has been locked up for the longest. Interfering with workouts. So I finally scheduled with my chiropractor. Then I went to lunch and as I was doing pull ups, I heard a pop. Then all the discomfort was gone. Chiropractor said it was my clavicle. Anyway, tried kettle bells today. Way harder than I thought, but I love a challenge. I would have tried for a much higher number, but some dip called a 12:30 meeting today. I’ll probably get some KBs for home, these seem “fun”.

Probably ride the peloton tonight. Today was supposed to be cardio.

I checked on gym prices today after being told my MMA gym has raised the weights price by $15 a month. So I looked and noticed LA Fitness is now $40 a month and got confirmation they are raising the price more. Lifetime is now $170 a month. At those prices, it’s smarter to have what you need at home. If I was willing to give up my garage, I could have it all. I could have an open air gym in my backyard. Bottom line, these gyms might want to consider people cutting the cord.
