It takes time to increase energy so if you work out 30min a day, plus 30 min recovery, your energy level in the remaining 17 waking hours needs to go up by at least 100*(18/17 - 1) = 5.88% to make it worthwhile. It’s a scam. Most patterns of working out don’t pay off 🤬

Did first proper barbell weights session after 8 months of closed gyms on Wednesday and am still sore and low-energy 3 days later 😶. Pre- gym closures it was full recovery in 48h.

And this despite the fact that I took 10-25 lbs off all my exercises thinking that should be enough to ease back in. It wasn’t. For 8 months I only did some irregular light dumbbell stuff at home at like 30-40 lbs off barbell levels. Not enough for maintenance clearly.
