For reference I started lifting with machines first, because injury with the barbells scared the hell out of me, and then one day I was in there alone and finally tried it and it wasn't too bad, I've just got really tight hamstrings

The first leg I've done in 7 years was friday. Before that I was just running 4 days a week(easy run, tempo, interval, and long run). I have huge legs but trying these different compound movements makes me realize how weak I am
I mean I get about 6-7hrs daily. My work schedule makes things hard, and then with overtime being unpredictable it's hard
Well I've been going for about 4 months but I was only doing speed training on the treadmill, I starting lifting about 3 weeks ago. I try to get 2 days at least of squats but it's getting hard
Me, every single time I have an extended amount of time off from work. There's so much time I can do anything I want, what's there even to do. What do I want to do? Wrestle with that until the last day then find something I really want to do and end up not having a lot of time for it.
Same. Got my steam deck week before last. It really cut into my running time.
Dude! Same, I lose confidence for some reason and have anxiety about running but as soon as I just do it I feel better. It just feels like climbing a mountain sometimes to just get started again.
Yeah that could be it, I usually run from my house due to time constraints, (I work 11am to 11pm). I'd love to find somewhere to do some trail running
Yeah I meant an office, just didn't want to be rude.
This. This is what I was looking for. I currently game on my laptop so I can break it out and play then put it up so it doesn't get messed with( little one running around). The idea of a dedicated gaming room seems awesome but It also seems like a way to close yourself off. And I don't like that. I like being able to hangout in the same room with everyone and still play my games.
But before that I've done leg press and calf raises and the like, some stationary bike. Free weight with barbells really scared me because I don't want to mess up my back with bad form. Like it scared me to the point that I'd get under the bar and I start shaking because I don't want to mess up. But now I can under there and do it, it's just my legs are really tight and it gets hard getting down into a low squat
