I want to hear what you’ve done recently that you’re proud of.

I didn’t want to work out today but I did.
I’ll try to do the same tomorrow.
I did 8 pull ups in a row unassisted and then ran two miles. Feel pretty good about that.
I hit a 4 plate (405lbs/183kg) deadlift for 5 reps the other day. When I finished, a fellow gym bro dapped me up and said “nice job, you’re strong.” I wasn’t really looking for compliments, but it was definitely a great feeling!
That’s a solid lift! Do you compete?
Thanks! I don’t compete, but I’ve always thought about it. I think I might be too old to start lol I’m 31 and am really just trying to see how strong I can get before my body doesn’t let me do it anymore
I did my first meet at 34. My friend has been setting records in his late 50s. You have a lot of years of lifting left.
Oh shit! Well that’s promising hah thank you, that gave me a little jolt of optimism
I’ve stuck to my routine and diet for a month now, and had someone tell me that i looked healthy recently.
I can do a knee pushup now :) Still working on full pushups.
Progress!!
i’ve been biking back and forth from work every day for the past month! about 12 miles round trip
When I started back squatting my initial goal was bodyweight (225-ish) now I’m up to 265 for 3 sets of 5 and 225 is a warm up.
Congrats!
I started running again recently after having neglected exercise for nearly a year and worked up three miles without stopping to walk the other day.
Three miles strait having only started recently is solid
I did my first brick workout for a triathlon I’m training for! That was cool.
The fact that I even started working out again after years. I’m keeping track of what I do every day. On day 3.
Nice work!
Thank you! Start of new week now for me. Gotta do my core today.
I’ve been trying to go to my fitness class once a week. I’m keeping it up, so now I might bump it up to twice a week!
I can hip thrust the equivalent of my weight now, which is cool
I just got my home gym finished after a few months off!
Congrats! What’s in it?
Basic equipment, 300lbs mixed bumper weights, 35lb and 45lb Olympic bars, ezcurl bar, powerblocks, rower, resistance bands.
>10k steps/day (on average) since half a year. Often up some hills around here. Had a few days “off” with sickness or injuries, but also other (e.g. hiking) days with multiples of that. Good for mental health, eyesight, and some (basic) conditioning.
Very good track record of going to the gym 3 times per week for a year. Few exceptions. Eating well. I can feel and see improvements, and apparently so can others. Likely in the best shape of my life so far, and let’s see where we can go. I once read male fitness tends to peak around 25-27, but I’m much better now than back then and not intending to stop improving for a while still.
My OHP is more than what my Bench was ~8 months ago when I started working out.
