    It’s okay if you don’t want to do at home workouts right now

    @clarity123 I say this with sadness in my heart: it won't matter, at least in the US. Hopefully 2 months is enough, but there is no way our government is hampering the economy that long. The Lt Governor of Texas had a press conference where he explicitly said the old and sick will just have to...

    Pilates-tok?

    @drokey I'm all for dunking on terrible TikTok disinfo, but to then say: is just as bad! Totally rampant speculation. I know this sub LOVES lifting and that's it, but I remember when everyone was doing Pilates and it did change people's lives because they were getting good movement and...

    Why am I so bad at running, but do well in other cardio related activities?

    @kmar123 I was almost exactly like you right when COVID kicked off - what better way to get out of the house safely and get in a good workout, right? Two years and hundreds of YouTube and running forum rabbit holes later, and my orthopedic surgeon told me my knees are designed in such a way...

    The revenge diet...with a plot twist?

    @xerdaj To a degree. This is similar to the mantra that fueled my anorexia. Be careful out there, folks.

    I created an Excel for Thinner Leaner Stronger Exercises

    @edwin627 Get yourself some INDEX MATCH skills - if you know about that, you're on another Excel tier. Also, r/consulting sends its love.
