Re:New fitness habits being created during Covid? by qchris on Monday August 10, 2020 @06:04PM (#24114562)
Just wanted to commiserate with you a little about the combat sports. I was in the several weeks into a training camp for my first amateur muay thai fight when my state's shelter-in-place order came out. Not being able to work with training partners and equipment (weights, heavy bags, and whatnot), and especially not having that as an outlet anymore has been really hard.

Like you, I think I'm finally making a little progress towards rebuilding, but there's been a couple pretty rough patches along the way.

thanks, it’s definitely hard. I know some people have been creating new healthy habits for themselves, but I was already very active as a runner and BJJ player. I should have taken it seriously and adjusted instead of being lazy. Stopping an extremely active life style cold turkey is like stopping medication. It sucks.

Plus it’s not like I can stop. I already got a little cauliflower ear. It’s blackbelt or bust now :)
