This morning I went to my gym after being out of town for a week. I drive up and the parking lot was close to empty compared to normal. I walk in and find out they're permanently shut down. The frustrating thing is that this is the second gym that has closed on me in the past few months.

I'm pissed.

Same. I would pass out. I've got incurable anemia, and when I push too hard, my RBC goes down. Nevermind not being able to breath because I've got a fucking mask on.

I'm using bands and a pull up bar at home. It was the cheapest option, but tbh, it's actually been less bad than you'd think. It was also the recommendation of "Stronger By Science".

I miss lifting heavy. I'm not the biggest guy, but I liked hitting those numbers. But we can't become those fat, lazy, compliant "citizens" they want us to be. SO, this is what I'm doing now.

Just wanted to throw that out there as an option for fellow NY pedes on a budget.

I cannot breathe with a mask on - plus I don't want to give these virtue-signaling asswipes the pleasure of doing their democrat party dominance/submission games.

I only don the mask if I have no choice - supermarket, for example. In that case. I'll just wear it below the nose.
