#squatpushrepeat I've upgraded to doing my 10 squats / 10 wall pushups / tricep dips 3xs a day now as I take Princess Aurora out on our quick breaks. Last week just starting out I did it only on lunch breaks and found I felt sore. This week I am starting to enjoy it. Maybe I'll eventually replace the smoke break completely with squats 😁💪

Just a heads up, don't expect too much strength gain from hypertrophy workouts. It does build strength, but much slower. It will burn energy and still useful, if that's what you want. Baby steps!

For sure! Whatever works :) Id would suggest, whenever you're ready - researching strength vs hypertrophy training. You know how to distill research, obv it's highly opinionated on _what_ to do, but it's pretty obvious on _how_ it works. If you wanted to get more into hypt you could look into HIIT. Supposedly good benefits for joints, tendons and ligaments, for people over 28-30 y/o. I tried it for a few months.

Your morning's fervent ritual beckons, a gentle seduction of sweat and steel. It's in these secret trysts that you find solace, and it's with Princess Aurora that your heart beats stronger.

I used to be quite athletic and did CrossFit for years but I got rabdo during COVID and have been told maybe it's best to not do HIIT moving forward. But it's ok! I'll look into it more as I go forward with this. Any little bit is better than nothing 🥰

I wasn’t mocking you at all. I totally read that as wall handstand pushups. The point of this is to improve over time. So wall pushups are better than doing nothing. #LFG
