I’m a firm believer of this. I read about gratitude when things were quite hard on my side and I’m glad that even then I could find things to be grateful about. Now my life is exactly what I wished back then and instead of wishing for more or falling into the dangerous pitfalls of comparison, I just keep focusing on the good things I have going on my side.
Because I’m quite vocal about my gratitude, it’s been funny to sometimes see my partner also turn to me and say things like “ahhh, we are lucky! Look at how amazing our lives are!”
I bet a lot of people wouldn’t be that impressed, but we know where we come from and don’t take anything for granted.

You only really need overhead press, bench press, squat, deadlift, rows, dips, and maybe pull-ups. These will give you most workout for the energy you put forth. by [deleted]
Go back to the empty bar and work from there.

Compound exercises are heavily based on movements we (should?) do every day when doing errands, cleaning the house, moving stuff around, etc… As an office worker, I’m not even focused on being muscular, but I do these movements to ensure that my body gets some solid moving and keeps “well oiled”.

Very true. I had to check my ego and go lower on weights because I realised that my form was not going to do well with heavier weights.
