tired of my kids wrecking my home gym again
Quote from Sandy2002 on November 6, 2021, 2:11 pmHi everyone. I need some advice or just a place to vent. I spent last Saturday at Home Depot buying a new heavy duty mat and some resistance bands for my spare room. I finally thought I had a space set up. Then Tuesday morning at 6 am my seven year old decided to use my dumbbells as pretend swords and knocked over my water bottle stand. It was everywhere. I just tried to do a quick yoga routine at 7 pm last night after dropping them off at rec and he left his LEGOs on the bench. I tripped and nearly hurt my toe. I am so done cleaning up after them every time I try to exercise. The house is always a mess. How do you keep your kids out of your workout space?

Quote from kathryn1992 on February 20, 2021, 3:31 amsame here. just got back from my third move in two years so i know the drill. honestly i just load everything into labeled bins and dont overthink it. my husband handles the heavy lifting while i manage the chaos of keeping the kids calm in the car. it sucks but we do what we gotta do. counting down the days until we actually unpack everything for real.

Quote from brave1987 on May 25, 2021, 2:38 amArre listen, coding means sitting like statue. That is why gas stuck. I also face same problem when I work on laptop for hours. First thing, drink hot water with lemon every morning. And eat more salad, no plain rice only. Walk for 10 mins every 2 hours. My husband also suffer from this. He started doing yoga stretch in evening. It helps very much. Try it.

Quote from bold1963 on April 17, 2021, 11:01 amFibro is real dont let anyone tell u otherwise. I got diagnosed three years ago. Woke up one morning and couldnt get out of bed. Docs acted like it was all in my head at first too. Now i just manage the flares. Take ur meds, rest when u need to, and stop blaming urself. Age has nothing to do with it. Its a nerve thing. Stay strong sister.

Quote from sugarplum1999 on January 12, 2021, 11:59 pmsame here honestly. i eat a heavy breakfast then crash hard. started bringing a little protein snack to work instead of waiting for lunch. also i realized i drink like two coffees before 10am which is def part of it. just forced myself to stop caffeine after 11 and it helped a bit. still tired but not dead lol.

Quote from Melissa1987 on November 19, 2021, 12:59 pmi feel that. my husband used to think once a week was totally fine. honestly？ yeah。 we just stopped scheduling it. now its whenever we actually want to。 turns out spontaneity matters more than a rigid calendar。 if he isnt asking for more maybe he just isnt turned on by the routine。

Quote from chimelodge on September 9, 2022, 7:07 pmhonestly yeah. im just hitting the gym hard rn. nothing fixes my spiraling like lifting heavy weights til i cant breathe. then i go home, eat some good food from abuela, and watch trash tv. simple routine. not trying to be spiritual or anything just need to shut my brain off for a bit. its kinda loud in here sometimes.
