When I decided to go nomad in 2021, I didn't know that I was going to drop regular exercise from my life. In 2023, when I "came off the road" and settled in Brooklyn, I started working out again, but then I suffered major injuries (one required surgery) and had to sit on the sidelines again. I finally got back into the gym a few months ago, but then I strained another muscle. I did a few PT sessions and have been able to keep it up in the gym, but man... I had no idea when I left LA in 2021 that my 10 years of consistent working out was going to go out the window and that the road back was going to be this hard. It's tough, but I am committed to keeping it going. I am out of town for the month of August and in order to make sure I don't fall off, I came up with a simple program to build up my push-ups, sit-ups, and squats that I can do at home. Today I set baselines and will report here on progress over the next 4 weeks. Test: - 17 max push-ups - 45 2-min sit-ups - 65 2-min squats

Calisthenics are the way man, especially safer for the older bodies too 😅 I wouldn't be surprised if 10 years of ligament and joint strain from weights and it's abrubt end and then restart lead to your injuries!

I first pulled a hamstring bouldering. Then my knee started hurting and didn't go away; turned out my cartilage had been (likely) damaged over many years. Bodyweight stuff is definitely great. Gotta focus on that mobility for longterm health.
