Weird, but impressive

Sorry to hear that - hope he is ok - and that you did not catch it.

Happy punching…

I still have the small barbell, yeah. I can only load about 80 kilo on it, which unfortunately is a tiny amount of weight only suitable for things like biceps curls.

Anyway, this should only be a temporary problem, so no big deal. It will be a bigger problem if there is a general lockdown over the winter where they close all the gyms. Which I fully expect will happen at some point. I have no plan for that, except becoming smaller and weaker.

No reason to get smaller: get your bulk on.

That sucks man, hope the boy is ok.

Hope your son is OK. Hope you are clear too. Are gyms about to close there ?

Son seems to be improving. Mostly it has just been cold-like symptoms.

There is no indication right now that gyms are going to close, I am just assuming they will at some point. All things being equal, just the fact that it is winter time means this virus is going to spread.

Guys, I did cardio again today. It’s basically a bad habit now, two days in a row.

Cheers, man.

Mine was a 2 day turnaround if I recall, but it seemed like things have evolved a bit since then, hopefully you aren’t waiting long.

I live in Denmark, so it’s a bit different. Turnaround generally about 24 hours, but no idea what they do on weekends.

In this country there are hotlines for this kind of thing. They did have a 12 step program but it seemed too much like cardio, it was just making the problem worse.

I would not doubt try to go through the steps too quickly, resulting in an elevated heart rate.

Well wishes for your son and you.

Sorry about the cardio. I’m always at a loss of words in these situations. I wish I could do more.

I am American. How can this remotely be confusing to you.

I thought you were Canadian. Although that may have been a joke I made a while back and then got confused with reality.
