I’m trying to build up my physical fitness again and it’s hard as balls. Probably because I’m not nourished but I’m doing the best I can.

There’s so much I would rather be doing than bed rotting, and I’m really scared about the times support isn’t available. That little bit of strength can mean the difference between being able to manage something important vs not

walking is a great entry point. Set a time (or other metrics if you have a smart watch), pick a direction and just...walk

Used to be my go to but stopped because of reasons. I’m trying to start back up but aware I’m still rolling the dice on run ins with crazy people each time

Don't know how easy they are to get these days but a WiiFit board was previously very useful for me. Don't need to leave the house and you get to do ridiculous things like ride moose like ski boards.

Happy to give you the box, but you'd need to acquire the peripherals yourself. (And have a safe to share address of some kind)

Thanks, it’s cool, I might just start with gentle stretches and walks when possible

I wouldn't worry about it. The WiiFit can be very mean

You can skip that bit, but yeah, not very sensitive.
