You’ve got this! Fitness is important but staying sane & healthy is more important during a global pandemic. Take your time, do what you need, & know that working out will be there whenever you decide you need it :)

Rowing is actually beneficial for pregnancy. Don’t ask me how.
Yeah contrary to popular belief, rigorous exercise has been shown to make pregnancy and delivery much easier. She didn’t have one bad day. Just hungry and tired after 7pm

Congrats! That’s awesome!

I have a similar weight loss story, but straight up jogging was my weapon of choice. 25 pounds in 1 year (~600 miles). I can relate to how it feels to crush something like that.

Congrats again!

Yup! We’ve been open since June or so, and recently went back to 60 minute classes during the week instead of 45. I’m also doing DriTri! Will be my second time - it’s a lot of fun. Good luck!

Wow that’s really good results. How many times a week and is that with diet too?

5 or 6 times a week & minimal diet changes! Cut back (but certainly not out) of unnecessary carbs, alcohol, & sugar. No starvation diet though & I don’t fully deny myself anything :) it’s all in moderation!

Ugh, I miss OTF. I used to book hotels by them and go at 5 am.

5am is still a little too early for me - but I respect the early morning squad so much!

How are the studios these days? I’m afraid to go back in...

Completely personal preference/tolerance for risk though😊

Signed up in mid July (26/M) and have really enjoyed it. Wasn’t fat before but stopped working out and this has gotten me in a groove. Have to wear mask during so can’t wait til that’s over.

same here with the mask! I’m trying to tell myself it’s a good lung strength exercise lol

Hi everyone, I’m seeking some advice - my dog (8yrs old) was attacked several months ago by another dog and after she became depressed and anxious. We got her anti depression meds and those seemed to help but how a lot now a lot of signs are pointing to a potential brain tumor. To get an MRI is +1k. My mom doesn’t want to spend money but it just hurts me so much to see the behavior - she walks around in constant circles, looks sad, seizures, hides under the bed. Any advice would be appreciated.

I started a new job recently and then had my PTSD seriously triggered, plus a panic attack. Felt so on edge and low on emotional resources for over a week that I wasn’t myself and apparently really rubbed a few people the wrong way so I was called in for a talking to 😣. I let people know there were some personal things going on, but didn’t mention the PTSD—very unsure if that’s something to share, or if I’d be judged for it or... I don’t even know. Has anyone else dealt with PTSD and had it impact them at work, and how did you handle it?

Anyone have experience working in sales for a startup? What are things to consider? Got a recruiter contacting me about an open position very similar to what I do now, at a startup.

I’m honestly tired of being at an agency and not feeling as fulfilled as I used with strategy as a career. Have anyone here make a career change? if so, what other jobs out there - outside of agencies and client side - can you apply what you know as a strategist? Curious if anyone has done it and has some advice.
