Sorry to hear that Mate. The changes in routines and uncertainty can really fook with you. Must be absolutely awful for those who aren't in a good place ar the best of times. The clear message after more than a year is that exercise and good health (I.e. losing weight) are essential but I guess that isn't what people want to hear. Ultimately you want to be as best equipped as possible to fight this thing if you ever get it and that should be motivation enough to pump that iron

.@rancid-schnitzel is more with limited equipment at home, love going TO the gym...am sure I'll get over it, just seeing shit play out like you've been expecting isn't much fun.
Thought it'd be a break for my niggles (elbows) but everything you do uses 'em

Totally get that. It's so much harder trying to work out at home. Not just the equipment but also the atmosphere, environment etc. I'm sure you'll get back into it but I worry about those who lose the momentum and get back into bad habits. A lot of people only need an excuse not to exercise.

I love working out at home, park, wherever. The world is a gym if you’re creative enough.

Got out for 9 holes today, is much better being able.to choose what hole you can hit to.
Oh, golf irritated my tennis elbow more than my golfers elbow haha

The snack section includes protein shakes and fruit, sn't just loads of chips haha
-

If you’ve just done 170 then 180 straight after might be tough but if it went smoothly it could be a goer next time. Just be sure to rest for several days, from my experience trying to deadlift a day or two after deadlifting is not good.

went for my annual check up on Thursday, and in the past 24 months my Triglyceride levels have jumped from a healthy 1.5 whatevers to an unhealthy 4.5 whatevers...
My cholesterol level has gone form just under the healthy range to just over.
So some changes needed in my diet, and re-ignite my goal to get to my ideal weight of 95kg (post lockdown this year got to 102kg)

Canned chicken has to be the cause

So starting point: 101kg this morning!
Weetbix do, well, a weetbix with plant sterols in them, which supposedly help with cholesterol, so will be having that as my brekkie from now on, with some oats, protein yoghurt and milk.
It is amazing how many healthy meals have loads of carbs and/or calories: 1700kj and 31g of carbs from 220g meal
