while i haven't gotten back into weight lifting (of which i was pretty into back then) i've begun losing a good bit of weight
since ive been off chemo ive put on weight, went up to 91kg when i should be between 70-75kg
between cardio and better eating (a metric asston of protein from all the grilling ive been doing) ive managed to get down to 83kg in 3 months
i can't do weights yet because ive still got a portacath in my chest and that makes most weight lifting incredibly uncomfortable to do but cardio is 100% good and ive been making leagues in that field; actually tempted to try and break my old distance record

did a 5km run after my usual hour workout today, needless to say i don’t have any proper gear and most of my part of london is uphill, it was raining, i nearly puked about three times, but i pulled it off, despite the fact i’d had a shitty unhealthy rest day yesterday, feel like a fucking champ rn but definitely looked insane steaming and jogging through the rain in trackies a t shirt and a waterproof vest
how the caucasian housewives see me jogging up the hill in the pouring rain at 7pm

Getting back into the swing of it
Lockdown got me weak though
r8 current, trying to get my abs back but idk what to include really. A-situps and Russian twist are my favorite
3x25 russian twist with 15kg dumbell, 3x25 atomic situps, 3x10 chest press @ 45kg, 3x10 seated row @ 40kg, AMRAP pull-ups, 3x10 single arm chest cable fly @ 20kg
10x100 meter interval sprints, low weight chest/arm/back exercises and goodmornings for warmup

more cardio imho the atomic sit-ups are diabolical i might have to start doing them myself, regardless clearly crackhead tier workout incredibly based.
running will burn off so much more and add so much more tone than just straight body weight imho, i feel like now that i’m on a bulk i've just hit a wall that only cardio will fix.

my metabolism is a double edged sword, moretime i'm constantly hungry, but as a result of its speed i'm constantly also passively burning calories, basically i'm built like this:

nucleus overload is fucking real wtf i thought it was a meme but you really can make gains by just being consistently average and getting good reps in and not following autistic gym plans.

ive never followed a gym plan, they are fucking stupid and churned out by even the most mediocre instagram 'fitness stars' so you'll buy their plan because people aren't confident enough in their own knowledge
our bodies are made to be in caveman mode, lift shit and eat meat and you'll get bigger, simple as that
if you're a complete noob then yeh go for a plan to get gym smarts after that just be consistent and overload

i need to stop repping calisthenics and out of gym shit before the 200kg gymchad corporate assassin comes for me and i have to str vs dex him irl
I get the mega shits with creatine like some really bad water shit ya feel? Don't mix it with pre, don't get into it tbh because it only helps with like 1 rep which you shouldn't have been able to do
Waste of time imo

just take pre bro and cycle it too because otherwise your body gets too used to the caffeine and it won't do anything
