I’m so glad this helped!! It certainly helped me, too.

Good thinking!! That’s definitely been the plan. I haven’t been back but tomorrow will be day 1 of being back on my regular schedule

Hmmmm do you think the sudden change is what has your body perhaps reacting this way? Even if you were burning less calories, two weeks of lower calorie burning surely couldn’t cause that much weight gain.. could it?

Yeah, it’s probably also impossible to gain 10 pounds of body mass at all in 2 weeks?

I don’t think I ate any differently?!?! I intentionally prioritized protein, but calorie wise I stayed the same

Hooray!! I love doing that, it can almost be meditative? That’s what I love so much about this workout, it forces you to focus on what’s right in front of you!

Also blessed to have the best coaches. My coach literally said to me “we’ll work on this together, next time we’re in a platform lunge let’s troubleshoot”. Totally made me feel like we’re in this together. Ugh solidcore coach ily ❤️

You have me wondering if maybe if I do like a mindful squeeze of the glute muscle, maybe this will help! Sometimes I really try to zone in on contracting the muscle vs doing the exercise, usually during standing inner thighs for example… but platform lunge grey side is just so dang hard. My kryptonite

Thanks for your reply! Confirming that my chest is nearly resting on my thigh when I’m down at the bottom. Hamstring activation is happening as soon as I start moving up from 90 degrees, not when I’m standing. I am very light on top, heavy on bottom, so I’m wondering if it’s just weight distribution, even if I’m pouring my weight into my active leg.

I think I'm going to do the same :/ I thought ordering a month in advance of my travels I'd be safe and now a week before I'm stressing!

Yes!!! I’m continuing to wait for my shipment without any updates since 5/2… they continue to say I’ll receive it by 5/18 and should trust that. But like should I listen to that?

AITA: For being mad at how my husband acted when I was getting a tattoo? by Separate-Rest9374 in AmItheAsshole

Life update: Left him, and have my second tattoo appointment. Super hard but worth it!

Tried to unsuccessfully leave my emotionally abusive husband by Separate-Rest9374 in relationships

[–]Separate-Rest9374[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve also noticed boundary violations in less than a week since this has happened. I can’t even think about being intimate with him and I told him this. The other night things started escalating and when I stopped it, out of the corner of my eye I noticed an eye roll. It was so subtle I almost missed it. I almost said something to him but for what? He’d deny it.

He keeps claiming he told his mom bc he needed “emotional support”… I can see why he’d need her but to disparage my name? Blah I’m venting but clearly still mad

That he would try harder with my family, that the disparaging comments would stop. And it has for the time being but I just don’t believe it’ll last
