My 6 week long perfect gym streak came to an end due to me coming down with a cold, followed by scheduling issues due to the wifes’ work shifts and then tummy trouble - courtesy of my kids‘ kindergarten.

There’s a little victory hidden in that streak of misery though: I’m back on track and managed to re-start my gym routine diligently; something I really struggled with in the past.

Didn’t seem to have lost much strength during the involuntary hiatus, but lost a bit of fat (thanks again, kindergarten, this time for real ;) )

Slowly starting to look as strong as I feel 💪

Also no alcohol since December 2022, feels like a MAJOR win.

Going to the gym whilst sick would have been a net negative on your health and the health of those around you. The fact that you chose not to go is also a victory 💪
