So I was a total gym rat when I was younger coming out of high school. Having been on the football team and wrestling team it was just natural for me. But then after having a kid, getting married twice, and all the bs that happened in between, going to the gym just seemed impossible. It wasn't until COVID hit that I started hitting the weights again in my garage. A little more than two weeks into the shutdown, and I was back in it.
So the reason for going to the gym, at least this most recent time, was fully out of boredom and not wanting to come out of COVID all flabby and out of shape.
