RE: How gaining a lot of weight pushed me towards becoming a better person (Part 2): The lessons I learned

in #health7 years ago (edited)

@irime I never really thought about if she was trying to get me out of the market or not. It's more on me than her, but I still can't believe I let myself go to that extent.

Being as nimble and relatively strong as I was and then in a matter of a few months not being able to do a push-up really made me feel horrible. I vowed to never let that happen again. What was worse was, I didn't realize all my strength had deteriorated that quickly that I dislocated my shoulder trying to pull a sliding gate open. It didn't make sense that I lost so much muscle that I couldn't open a gate that i could easily open before. I kept trying to open it refusing to acknowledge how weak I was until I popped my shoulder out. I found out the gate was locked. That was an idiot moment.

But yes, I love doing stupid things with my body as well like dunking footballs (can't fully dunk a basketball but it's on my bucket list of things to complete lol). People don't understand that the hardwork and dedication from sports translates to real life too, if they apply it. Hopefully I'll have a fitness success story to share somewhat soon too!
