🤕 Weightlifting and Training Around Injuries 🩼

Continuing to train unaffected areas helps maintain muscle mass and strength, reducing the risk of muscle loss during recovery.

1️⃣ Focus on Pain-Free Range of Motion

2️⃣ Incorporate Unilateral Exercises

👉 The Role of Cardio and Muscle Retention 🏃💪

—

🏃 Engaging in moderate cardio (2-3 sessions per week) supports fat loss without compromising muscle mass, especially when paired with strength training.

🏃 Too much cardio can lead to muscle breakdown, as the body may use muscle tissue for energy when in a caloric deficit.

@Moira hang out outside and wear mask indoors in crowded places. Being comfortable in a mask is a choice that can work for you (it has for me). Setting up regular calls with friends also makes a difference - as does texting. Staying in touch has many avenues now. taking walks, going on vintage shopping jaunts, taking your elder friends on walks, cooking for others , walking the (dog(s) (all can be done wearing mask - as you feel appropriate). #lowimpact small groups visits are lots of fun.

Sold mine about 20 yrs ago.

It's even easier today than back then, I think. Things like uber & more deliveries (which are themselves an indirect form of public/shared #transport), and video meeting - image sharing.

But the availability of PT options is the most important! That lack of monthly payment & expenses is one of the reasons I was able to retire early. ~$130,000 saved so far.

Getting back to a more regular training schedule but it's hard to find the motivation when forbidden to work out as I'd like to. Calf is not hurting anymore but the range of motion is still limited.

And I can't do any high impact or high intensity exercises 😩. Patience is not my strongest point, I have to admit.

So today's workout was lower body rehab exercises + calisthenics tokyo week 3

Building another #RaisedMound #gardening bed. Been doing this for years.

#Hügelkultur (pronounced hoogleculture) is #German for #HillCulture . You grow crops on raised, earthen mound that consists of a foundation of logs/branches covered in layers of manure, compost & soil.

This sycamore snapped off in a storm in Nov 21. Well seasoned now. I'll take off the side branches for firewood. I only take what I can carry on my back. Some ex farm workers here wonder why I don't bring my 2.4 litre diesel engine 4x4 pick up and a petrol chainsaw. In the time I would have got organised and driven half a mile, I've had a lovely walk and some exercise. #LowImpact

@bsmall2 @Iragersh interesting about the wood. An earthship may not be "the thing" for your place in japan. but you could use many ideas to make a passive house or a high efficiency space (of an appropriate size). I mean renewable energy may be wind or water and not solar in your area. And water collection looks different everywhere too. Perhaps a composting toilet. And reducing your car use, like mentioned, and increasing things like walking and using a bicycle too. Having a #LowImpact on the earth is a social thing too, so in this case how we use what we use how we take from the earth and how we give back. how we use language to oppress others (even unintentionally).
I suggest finding the elders, whose people have lived in that place for generations. Ask them questions. Ask their opinion. They will be able to guide you to the best options for your place. they will know the #HistoryOfPlace better than any book and will be able to tell you what to think about and be cautious about. perhaps it is piled up logs in a modified earthship, and perhaps there is a design that hasn't been commercialized yet that would be better.

@saltphoenix did you live on the island before you went off grid or did you move there to go off grid? can you tell me about your decision to live a #lowimpact life?

for #lesswaste reasons I'm trying to live without hand cream and it sucks, tbh.
what do you all use instead of plastic packaged handcream?
