My best decision was to start going, my worst decision was giving up. My 2nd best decision was to start going again a year ago. I won’t say I feel great, but I feel better than I did before.
Comment on Anon owns a gym
Schal330@lemmy.world 17 hours agoWhen I was younger a friend convinced me to go to one of these gyms. We’d go stupid early in the morning, like 5am. There would be one other group of people that would go that early in the morning. After like a year of going I was in the best shape of my life and I’d get the nod in the morning from the other group.
It felt really good, but then I got a new job, moved where I was living, and a particularly cold winter rolled round. Went to my car; ready to go to the gym, and the door was frozen shut. Decided to skip it and climbed back into bed. It all went downhill from there and I now regret not having kept it up. I hope that the other morning group is still going 14 years later.

No one understands this more than me, and this isn’t directed at you or anyone in particular, ain’t here to judge, but in case anyone needs to hear that it’s okay to slip, don’t let being perfect stop you from being good enough.
That’s something I needed to experience and practice to appreciate, unironically.

My friend has a saying about this. He says, “Even when you give up, don’t give up.”

10% effort is always better than 0. If youve given 100% in the past, 50% can feel like 0. Dont let it be, but allow yourself to go below 100
