2026 Fitness Thread

Been bumping my weights up and I've been so sore some days on the sim I just shank everything. Starting to get better now, however so that's nice. Hoping when the full outdoor non mud season starts I'll be hammering the ball further!
 
There's already a lively Weight Loss and Nutrition thread going.

What are we doing for fitness here in 2026?

Weight Lifting, Yoga, Stretching, Running - you name it post about it here.
yes, I have a Bowflex that i am using, but more than that i have started doing kettlebell routines with stretching bars. I also have an Infrared Sauna at the house and sauna 4-6 times a week

Add in my walking with a weighted vest and i look forward to shedding the waist accumulation
 
I’ve started the cardio thing again just going to do 2 miles everyday that way when the weather starts to improve I can be ready for my 5 and 10k runs during the week. I will be adding some lifting but not any thing too heavy. I’m adding it just to maintain strength and muscle throughout the year with the running.
 
Leg day bitches.

I've been doing bent over tricep kickbacks with 10 pound weights. Feels sad to have that small of a weight but in order to get and keep good form I need it.
There's really no way to do those heavy.
 
“The squat – particularly the proper low-bar kind that lets you use so damned much weight – is the real life equivalent of being bitten by a radioactive spider or getting caught in a gamma bomb explosion, by far the best way for you to become as close to superhuman as possible.”

Oh, leg day BLOWS. Squat day however...can make you a sexual tyrannosaurus, just like me.

That's a movie reference for the unaware.

Any time I see T-Rex references I think of meet the Robinsons. Lol

Love heavy squats, but never have a spotter so I’m always worried I’m going down face first.

Deadlifts
Lunges

No, and even though I don't want to it's still very humbling that 10 pounds is frankly enough weight. I could probably get up to 15 but my form would suffer something fierce.
 
Whatchu runnin there? 5" ers?

I mean, leg day what's up! Let's go!
I laughed out loud at this, and everyone in this meeting thinks im crazy now.
 
Back to back to back days in the gym hitting the weights for the first 3 days of my program. Feel good, and the time off did not seem to cause any issue. Today is my off day from the gym, but have a 2 hour outdoor ride on my road bike, little gear only, which is going to absolutely kill my legs.

I guess it depends on how many you are doing. In my class we lift so so so many reps that I have to bump it down or I ain’t making it to the end. If you are doing 3 sets of 5…. 🙈🤣

Cardio day and 25 minutes on the stair machine makes me feel like I could conquer the world. 😆
I've been ending my weight days in the stair machine. 30 minutes and I want to die.
