Get Fit Together

It's more about health than who you want to impress. Can you safely lift weights? That might be a way to gain benefits such as reduced injury risk and better longevity without flaring your asthma.

Nope lifting feed nearly kills me when needed. Also if I lift, my back will hurt for hours where i cant even get out of bed without terrible pain

Ontop of a bunch of other health issues and being allergic to literally everything lol I do ride a bike in the summer but not often anymore

I'm sorry to hear that, it's really frustrating to have a body that doesn't cooperate with you.

Oh no, I don't mean compound lifts, I'm thinking more small hand weights that can be used carefully and at very small weights if necessary. It sounds like in your case it'd probably be better to work with a physical therapist to make sure you don't hurt yourself worse. I hope you find a way!

Personally, part of the reason I lift weights is so that I don't injure myself when I lift feed or do something else that's heavier than I'm used to or goes outside my range of motion.

Something I've also wondered is whether not eating enough can cause working out to be more drudgery. I average 1400-1500 calories a day, which I know because I track my food so I can get my macros in order. I feel more more alive and like I relish moving when I hit 1900-2000.

I waaaay under-eat. I have a jacked up metabolism because of serious health issues and years of eating disorders. It's part of the reason why I don't like talking about fitness to others. I get tired of the lectures about how much I need to eat. I tried eating 1200/day and put on almost 30 lbs in just a few months.

Wow, it's pretty incredible to me how different humans can be.

I'm in! I've been running recently, working on a couch-to-5k with my mom. I must say, exercising with someone else is the best way to be accountable. My mom like running much more than I do, so when I don't want to run, she still does, and I "have" to go with her.

No running for me. I will be upping my weight lifting this year.
