My start to 2022 has been extremely rocky to say the least. The first week was on point – extremely high motivation, great work ethic and all over felt like a very good start. Then came week 2, I tested positive to Covid-19. I still don’t know who gave it to me. It was a straight downhill from there.

Extreme fatigue and lethargy started taking over me. I overcame the virus pretty quickly, but all my motivation was gone. After recovering, I went to the gym on day 8, and the first thought after my first deadlift set was “I hate this. How on Earth have I loved lifting weights for nearly a decade?”  I struggled with motivation all over the board, I did not let my job suffer, but it was just hard to work on my projects.

Putting this crappy start to the year behind me, in Feburary I intend to:

• Get back into my work ethic and my routine.
• Gain the strength back that was lost over the course of fighting the virus (Yes, you do loose quite a lot of lifting strength- me personally about 25% lost).
• Start working on the two previously mentioned projects.

Let’s go!!
