[QUOTE="kel, post: 1442313, member: 17197"] Still in lockdown, no gym for months. Home workouts just don't have that energy. I used to do a PPL that I quite liked and had a nice gym that let me play with it - a functional training room, some niche machines that I wouldn't build a routine around but were nice to mix it up. Adjustable dumbbells at home just aren't the same. I'm trying to do more muscular endurance type things, or very high volume. Admittedly part of it is focus - being at home just doesn't make it real, like the gym did, and it's on me to get over that. But, it is just materially limiting. My body was in all humility pretty good - not the most ripped guy in the gym but nice athletic definition and strong, I was honest in not just training glory muscles but really building [b]strength[/b] over time. I felt my own power. Even optimistically, I don't see gyms opening for another few months, and who knows even then. I need to figure out something. [/QUOTE]
