Hello comrades and welcome to the second improvement megathread of April! It's the middle of the month, I hope everybody is having a great April so far.

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 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?

Good luck with your goals unity

    I have done one (1) push-up every day this week. I am very out of shape and I figured if I try to do any more, I'll end up doing nothing at all. So I try to do one proper one each day for now, just so that I'm doing anything at all.

      Hell yeah, that's cool! I am doing microexercises almost every day. I do several sets of 50 jumping jacks or 5 incline push-ups or 10 calf raises scattered throughout the day.

      Have you tried doing incline push-ups or knee push-ups? I think it's a good idea to start from these easier variations and then progressively work your way up to regular push-ups.
