Virtually no change in body metrics this week. Body weight, fat, muscle etc. No increase is good, but I'm really frustrated. I've been stuck at around 153 pounds for ages. I don't know what more I can do.

Struggled through the entire workout today. In my head too much thinking I'll never get to where I want to be.

Let’s not mince words on exactly what the MAGA movement is.

Really happy with the shoulders! Today was an upper day and my word, what a workout it was. I took these photos minutes after finishing the workout. I'm truly astounded about how much change there's been over the last 12 months. There's a lot more to do, but I'm doing it. I'm winning. #fitnesssky

I know I talk a lot about running, but I haven't lost sight of the weight training that I am doing. So, moving forward I'm going to try and post more about the weight training and less about the running. Starting a new workout plan tomorrow. I'm excited as hell. Taking today off was a good call!

I felt really quick on this recovery run. Hadn't set out to do that but this felt like a breakthrough on my speed. Even if it's not, I can be proud of my progress in my training. #fitness #fitnesssky #running

No gym today. Ankles are hurting a little too much. Instead I'll walk for a while. I got a Pixel watch 2 as a treat and I'm keen to test it out.

Seven months on, I love this. I'm so glad I took the plunge and started lifting.

I don't know if I've talked about why I'm into my fitness more than before. I guess it's a mix. I'm fueled by disrespect, by feeling ignored, overlooked. But also to reclaim what I once had, good health. I think about how I was treated by former friends a lot. That helps in the gym.

I'm really proud of how far I've come since this post. I still miss him and I always will, but this spurred me into being a better person.

I hope I'm no longer the villain, but I cannot lose sight of the man I no longer want to be.

Reminder to myself of what I'm trying to get back to. 2015 me was hot and I didn't even know it.

I'm wondering if the creatine I take (which is caffeine free) is contributing to the bladder issues. Going to stop using that and see how the next few gym sessions go.

Felt a strong bout of anxiety in the gym today. I have no idea why. I couldn't finish my workout. I'm not ashamed to admit that, but I hope I can finish strong with a run later today.

Probably the worst thing about my bladder issues (long story short, it doesn't empty entirely) is the disrupted sleep. I get up 4-5 times a night to pee. I just about get enough sleep to get through the day, but it's annoying. Thankfully getting checked out next month after a 7 month wait.

Had a pull day today. Too many videos to share here, so I've posted them on my Instagram. Thoughts and feedback are welcome! www.instagram.com/p/DKn96uHCcn... #fitness #fitnesssky #gym #gay #workout

I was thinking earlier today about making YouTube videos about my fitness endeavours. Problem is, I'm not sure how I go about that. I don't know if I want to. I find vlogging pretty awkward. But I do have a fitness account on Instagram, would love to see you there. www.instagram.com/hopesgetsfit/

Pretty decent push day. I tried a few extra exercises. Particular highlights were the incline chest press, assisted dips and especially the skull crusher. That one was very light, at 10kg, but the focus was on getting used to it rather than lifting anything particular.

Sometimes I don't know how to be kind to myself. Tonight is one of those days. Quite the turnaround from this morning.

I've noticed a lot of skull crusher exercises on my YouTube etc. First, what a cool name. Why can't all exercises have cool names? Second, I can't imagine how to do them right! But I'd love to try. Only way to push yourself!

I'm getting better at listening to my body. I really wanted to go on my first long run of the training plan today, but my legs were a little stiff from leg day. Could I run? Yeah probably, but I might make things worse. There's always tomorrow!

Men, watch out. I am now approaching the muscle mass of the average man. I know you're shaking in your boots. 🤣 Jokes aside, I like how I look and feel today. Keeping at it. I owe it to myself. Prove them wrong. #fitness #fitnesssky

250 pounds on the leg press! Moved the seat further back. That might've made it easier? I don't know. But 250 seems pretty big!
