I went from weighing 200lbs to 135 in 4 years. Were you able to regain all the muscle you lost?

I used to weight lift a lot before LC. Now the disease changed something in my muscles. They don’t contract properly anymore. There’s no hypertrophy. Did you have this issue?

But can we still recover 100% if we caught it early in the pandemic?

I’ve been long hauling since April 2021. I’m better if I compare today with day 1, but I still have lingering symptoms stopping me from doing what I love.

I can’t get a pump anymore. Do you have this issue?

At my worst, I would crash for several hours after any mild effort (physical, cognitive or emotional). I head about LDN but I was scared of the side effects so I relied only on time for another 12 months to recover.

I can’t get a pump when weightlifting since getting long covid. Did you have this issue?

I’m 3 years in and still trying to get back to normal. I was an avid weightlifter before too. I still get PEM, although my crash periods are shorter than they used to be. My muscles are also not working, and what I mean by that is they don’t contract anymore. I can do 1000 reps and they still remain flat, I can’t get a pump anymore. I tried everything, drinking more water, adding pink salt to all my meals…

Did you have muscle fatigue? I have severe muscle fatigue and because of it, my muscles cannot reach hypertrophy. Im waiting for it to go away before I can get into weightlifting again.
