First SL 5x5 workout in around 6 weeks after breaking my foot.
Felt great to get back under the bar, and kudos to the StrongLifts 5x5 app developer, as the app automatically noticed it’d been a while since I lifted and suggested de-weighting by 50%, likely saving me from some pain later on (I wouldn’t have tried to pick up where I left off, but wasn’t sure how to go about restarting “properly”).
Now comes the hard work of building back up to where I left off.
Another positive note…played softball last week and last night, and I’m hitting better than I ever have, despite 6 weeks of not lifting. Last week, I hit a double, which was a first for me. And last night, my coach told me that our opponents (we’ve been playing them in church league for many years) paid me a compliment on how well I’ve been hitting the last 2 games. Always nice to hear.
