Hi there. Guys can someone share any link how to avoid getting fat on quarantine? Thanks

[Mindy]

Been going to the gym, trying to build a habit of going in the mornings before work. Just slightly worried about coronavirus in the gym.

Yeah the gym sounds like a ****ing horrible idea.

Bought a weight set, finna get ripped...

Much better idea.

Set a schedule and stick to it.

I always end up giving up and having to once again settle with an ADHD-friendly workout routine instead. (10 minute exercise intervals throughout the day at random times as opposed to one 45 minute long session or whatever, which cats make difficult to complete anyway.)

Thats sort of my pattern also, just a few lifts here and few lifts there... not one steady long session.

Here's the schedule I started back into after the disc golf season wound down:

(3 sets of 10 reps with medium weight and done after getting home from work)

Mon: Bicep Curls, Bench Press, Pull-Ups
Tues: Tricep Curls, Trap/Deltoid Curls, Military Press
Wed: Rest
Thurs: Leg Day - weighted squats, leg extensions, curls, etc.
Fri-Sun: Rest

Supplement that with either biking, or jumping jacks & and sit-ups every morning to get the blood flowing. I stopped going for full muscle failure and bulk a couple of years back since it was ruining my disc golf game and sending my muscle memory all over the place, but I'm planning on upping the weights a bit this year.

I was using the condo association clubhouse where I live since they have a decent weight room, but I've since moved all my weights, bench, etc. from my garage into a spare room. The clubhouse has been closed since last March and there's no way in hell I'm stepping foot in a gym.

Nice routine, I am trying to just rip the muscles completely until failure and then rest and repeat. I may get a bike to ride around for some cardio but haven't yet.
