Welcome back, Mike. How's it feeling?

Like I haven't seen the inside of a gym in two years. lol

Honestly not as bad as I expected. I'm running a push/pull/full body split and four sets of eight. I expected to feel fried, but a little stretching is all I've needed.

 

[MikeNice]

Stiff Leg Dead
Split Squat
Dips
Pull ups
Y's
Preacher Curl
Tricep extension

I am embarrassed by how weak I have become and I learned that stiff leg dead lifts mess with with my balance.

I have to stop judging my workouts based on what I could do and accept the new reality.

I have to stop judging my workouts based on what I could do and accept the new reality.

Things have changed so much in the last few years. I can't lift the weights I once did, so I've found other ways to ramp up the intensity and keep things semi-fresh.
