#weightlifter — Public Fediverse posts

I've always hated #running & never do it recreationally or otherwise.

I'd rather drive. LOL!!!😉

On the other hand, I was a dedicated #weightlifter for many years which contributed to a physique that you don't often see in Asian men of my age but arthritis that later developed in my right elbow prevented me from doing basic upper body work, like pushups & pullups, so I stopped #lifting & started #rowing instead.

I now row 15k meters a day in sets of 2.5k meters each for a combined 2 hrs of exercise a day & I've never been in better shape in my life.😊

Yesterday after a long #weightlifting hiatus I realized I can easily #deadlift 85lb for reps. I'm legitimately thrilled! At this time last year I had never even attempted any of the big three lifts. Despite a lot of setbacks and inconsistency, I've made so much progress. Really proud of how strong I've become!

Pushed through some frustrating challenges including (hopefully) the last dregs of a migraine and got in some #weightlifting today! Tried cable pullover for the first time, was thoroughly humbled and loved it. Worked on my #deadlift form too, which needs a lot of love. #benchpress is next on my list to improve.
