second gym session

yesterday was my second time in the gym since the injury. went better than the first. horribly annoying though since I still have terrible DOMS in my chest and abs from the first workout a few days ago. I forgot that I get DOMS bad when I first start lifting because honestly it had been so long that I hadn't thought about it in forever.

so I haven't lost as much strength as I had feared but it is going to take a while to get back to where I was. not impossible just time consuming. trying to look at it as a challenge instead of a setback.

planning two days a week for another week or two to ease into it, before I go back to the two week, 3x a week rotation (A/B/A, B/A/B sets). hopefully after a few weeks at the lighter weight "post-recovery exercise rotation", I'll be able to start progressive overload again and make up for lost time.

getting injured sucks.
