Does the effort worth bodylifting?

yes it's worth it but i couldn't do it seriously until i bought a few tools to help make it feel like a decent workout:

- push-up handles to get a deeper push-up and to prevent injury to wrists

- barbel and weights for squats, deadlifts, rows, overhead press, etc.

- pull-up bar for upper-back

with this stuff i'm able to train and not feel like i'm just wasting time.

Gyms are still open here (Southern US), so I’ve continued my normal gym routine.

I will add that I’m making a point to stay on my shit this year in regards to fitness, I fell off the wagon a few times way too easily last year (because of chicks, it’s crazy how sedated/complacent a constant supply of pussy can make you).

However you want to work out is up to you, in the gym, at home, doesn’t matter. What does matter is that you do something.

No breaks . If gyms are still closed get yourself a pull up bar and do your pushups and sit ups.

At least.

No excuses.

Every hardship presents an opportunity to excel.

Of course keep going. only losers look for excuses to stop. if you're not injured, no reason to not keep improving.

I smile when i hear my LTR's friends, or their BF/husbands lament their weight gain and muscle loss "you know, cause of covid". whatever. i've been home grinding since march (dumbells, kettlebells, TRX) and have continued to get leaner and put on muscle (albeit at a slower pace than lifting heavier at the gym).

so fuck it. keep slaying, i have contempt for those who nod and smile at eachother for group comfort in knowing they are ok too, for getting weak in 2020. the sheep (feeder fish, cows in the field) just need to know they're not alone in their misery and they'll rationalize their own deaths.

We're coming up on a year in and you're just now asking this?

All you need is a good set of resistance bands. Check out Undersun.com.

Yes it’s always been very worth it for me. Lifting is an absolute cornerstone of my life. But I’ve always been an athlete that needs the physical outlet and naturally took very easily to weights from the beginning.

I've thrown together my own workout program with sandbags, kettlebells, and resistance bands. It's not ideal. There's no progressive overload since it's hard to add weight each time, but it keeps me from losing too much.

Lol so you are gonna unfreeze your membership when the mainstream media says that it's safe to go workout again?

Go to the gym dude. You won't die if you get and don't worry about killing grannies. We've been killing them in flu season every year. Cheers!
