Im not out of shape, actually naturally pretty slim but have very little muscle.
The guy said he wants to show me benefits of lifting and working on your upper body because I wasnt into the idea and only wanted to train my legs and abs, so he showed me a 42 year old woman who was supposedly looking very young. And I said that she was looking too muscular and I didnt wanna look like that. Later the woman turned out to be his wife lol. But in the end i accepted to work on my upper body too, for once a week. I only hope to gain minimal muscle and no more than that tho.
I see. Trainer might have already mentioned this, but strength is not equal to bulk.

If you look at old photos of Bruce Lee, you will see he doesn’t have the bulk of a body builder. He was likely the strongest person alive at that point in time, though. Idk if that helps, but anyway, best wishes for you to meet your fitness and body composition goals with that trainer.

I am doing well today. I didn't do much brain work but I had 2 well paid meetings so have earned my crust for the day. I also managed to meditate for the first time in ages and have tuned back into the dharma/meditation channel on Youtube that I like. I should never have stopped the meditation, not quite sure how I did, just stopped one day somewhere. I enjoyed the 15 minutes and will build on that (I've set a weekly target in my targets). I did another half hour of housework so am half way through my weekly target and sorted out a messy corner of my bedroom. Now all my socks are in a drawer 😂 Breaking things down into little chunks and gamifying things with targets and timers definitely seems to be doing something!
 
Feeling crappy tonight. Feeling bad about the accident (even though it wasn't my fault) and just lonely. I have called all that would talk with me and it doesn't matter I don't have any new info to share as conversation. Just me and the cat. And she doesn't talk back!
This is what happens when I work remote. I get lonely and mopey. Although the office isn't much better as many are leaving the company. And it's bound to get worse (not having people around). But first I have to get through tonight.

Awake. Was awake at 7.30, 3.5 hours early but wasn't getting back to sleep so have got up feeling like I've been hit by a truck. This is usually my body's weekend trick but has come early. I've at least not got any meetings today or at the office or anything, so I don't have to make myself presentable to the world, I just have to pace myself with the mental tasks as sometimes I will fill out forms on my work platform and just as I'm about to click submit realise that some of the words are the wrong way round or typos. So I'll have some more coffee before doing anything important. Trying to be philosophical about it, I've had problems with sleep for a lifetime and know I'll get through the day one way or another. Feel warm, surprising for May in the UK 😂

I renewed my permanent resident card. I'm waiting for it in the mail. No clue how long it'll take before it gets to me but at least I got it done. Had the biometrics appointment today. When I get the card I can finally apply for a driver's permit. This has all been a wild goose chase and I hate it. Getting documents isn't easy.

Good heavens, just went out to the shop and to vote in the local elections. It looked sunny, but I donned a jacket as it's been 10-12C for the last few weeks. I was roasting by the time I got back, my app says it's 22C. That's blinkin tropical for round here. Was going to go for a run I might leave it another hour or so till the sun gets a bit lower in the sky 🌞

Tired. After getting up stupid early due to my insomnia I had a productive day, managed 5 hours of well paid project work and also went for a run, did the laundry and did the shopping. Hopefully I won't get fired for turning in absolute brain-addled nonsense, but I've lasted this long so I should be OK. I'm hoping I will sleep. My eye is sore I think maybe I keep forgetting to blink when staring intently at the laptop screen. Goodnight all ❤️❤️❤️
