Coming back from the horrendous de-conditioning of 9 months spent exclusively or mostly on my ass is not an easy feat. I've done it before, mind, the last time in 2014 I think-- the year I kept spraining my joints in pairs. Both ankles then both knees then both wrists, then both ankles and knees again. That was about 7 months of being out of

I'm glad you are challenging yourself and persevering. I hope chores get easier as you work your strength back up and reach your goal of exploring the outdoors!

I feel ya. I've been painting walls (and baseboards and trim) at work for the last two weeks. I hurt in areas I didn't know it was possible to hurt in!

Aah, so cool!! Glad to hear your resilience.

Here's privileged relatively-able-ful me being useless at the primary work I "should" be doing in lockdown. I.e. wasting money on a self-paced degree I'm not studying for, mainly. Obviously it's not lack of time, but internal problems and lack of taking responsibility.

Meanwhile, my lower back is all spasm-achy-pain activated from walking for hours in protest all of a sudden. Inspires me to keep moving Or Else.

Now I'm ingesting media all day lately and I'm going mad. LOL. I sacrifice myself! Spare yourself -- Run!! ........ or wait, bad metaphor, RIP me.

Keep it up!

Thank you! I'm trying. I keep failing, but then I get up and try again. It's really all any of us can do!
