A (half) step towards normal

Finally, all the restrictions from the surgeries have been lifted, and I was able to go back to the gym today. A step in the right direction, with a caveat – I can’t do heavy weight yet, so I’m on the low-weight, high-rep thing.

It was a little disheartening this morning cutting all my weights in half, and then having to lower them even further to try and get near the 15-20 reps goal. After doing incline press and incline flyes, I did 20 more minutes of lifting on pure pissed-off at being such a wimp. Then I got on the elliptical and tried my usual interval training. By the 5th interval, I was barely making 10mph, which pissed me off even more.

Guess it’s going to take a little while to get used to this routine.

  1. I like you as Shrek for Halloween, that would be perfect! You only need the little antenna thingies. But if you are taking Annie, then Daddy Warbucks and Annie. Also awesome!
