My anxiety has been absolutely crushing me lately so my buddy told me to just try one session. Thought I'd feel worse but honestly it helped. Felt lighter the rest of the day. Not saying I'm magically fixed but I'm gonna keep going back. If you're in a dark place too, maybe just try one small thing today.
This is the kind of thing that sticks with you once you realize exercise actually works. Don't overthink it, just go back when you can. You got this.
That's huge man, seriously. Taking that first step when anxiety's got you in a headlock is no joke. Keep riding that wave, you earned this one.
Dude yes. I've been there where just getting out the door feels impossible. One session turns into two, two turns into a routine. Your buddy gave you solid advice.
That's a huge win. Two years is a long time to be away from something that helps. Your buddy was right - sometimes you just have to show up once and let it build from there. Proud of you.
This right here. Mental health is real and taking care of yourself makes you a better dad. Keep that momentum going.

One session is how it starts. I've been there with anxiety and honestly getting back to the gym changed everything for me. Keep going back. That's the hardest part but it gets easier.
