I've been sad since not lifting
I used to exercise multiple times a day, now I barely do it once, and I'm sad
I really enjoy working out, I run, I've lifted, I've crossfitted, I've F45'd, I've BFT'd at 5am, I've cycled, I've swam, I've Hyrox'd, I've trail ran, I've bouldered, there is probably more I can't think of right now.
Now I barely run a few times a week, I'm not in a good headspace. I think they are connected. I don't like identifying with things, but I geninuely think that I associate myself with working out. I'm not the best, i'm not ripped, but I can hold my own.
I now live in a place with only a small gym. I'm not good at keeping myself accountable and working out alone is BORING as hell. I miss the competition, I miss the comradery, I miss the laughs.
Working out is fun, its hard, it makes you happy, it builds friendship, it makes you healthier, it hurts. Go workout, don't be intimidated everyone has someone better than them.
