Hello comrades and welcome to the second improvement megathread of September! bonfire

As usual, some discussion ideas:

  • Do you want to share something you've done in the previous week? Everything counts, nothing is too small.
  • Do you have any goals or plans for next week?
  • Do you have any streaks? For example, "sober for one day." Feel free to post your streak every day in this thread.
  • If you don't have a continuous streak, did you manage to abstain from something for a day or more?
  • Did you come across some useful information or resource that might help others?

Poster caption: "(we) Will build back to fame!"

Good luck with your goals! unity

    I've got a routine going starting this morning to build upper body strength. It slaps, I feel so good even though it was just small basic lifts with literal 5lbs dumbbells. The meme isn't a meme it's real, I am gonna be swoletariat in no time.

        It's really incredibly basic atm, 'cause I've been busted with chronic pain. So each arm gets ten lifts from like waist height, forearm flat, and then forward up to the shoulder, y'know the stereotypical, targets the biceps thing, Idk what it's called. Also I do five where I start with arms at my side and lift into a t-pose basically.
