Morning, until 4 months ago I used to train at least three times a week. Running (9 km) and HITT.
I’m 50, and I began to feel a lack of motivation toward both running and training. Then I’ve injured my shoulder, there’s an hole on my tendon, thus I should use the elastic fitness band, but I don’t.
I became ~~flaccid ~~and I don’t like my body, I’m still skinny, but I’ve lost all my muscles, I have to start from zero again (sore muscles, lactic acidosis and all that). And here comes the reason why I am posting here. I need a sponosr or someone who gives me some motivation and advice to begain all over again.
Right now I feel sadly at ease (depressed but I don’t kind of care, but I care at the same time, difficult to explain) with my body loosing shape, strength and agility. I also note that in the last month I’ve catched on of the most virulent bronchitis ever; I tend to think this is one of the fallout of my interrupting physical activity.
Does someone want to help and old man with advice and motivation?
(I’m Italian, thus forgive me English)
Ouch! flaccid, in Italian we use it also for a limp penis, but isn’t the first thing that comes in mind, :). Could you give me a synonim? toneless, maybe? Could you suggest a program for beginners, or link maybe a video or something like that? thanks a lot for the answer!
Haha! Sometimes people use the term “skinny fat” to describe being skinny but out-of-shape.
You might want to look at this for a beginner-level weightlifting program. I’ve never tried this myself (I have a personal trainer who comes up with my training regimen) but it looks like a good start.
