Been fighting off a cold / flu past couple days so been in quarantine. Did a light 45m walk around the block instead.

Walking - 45m


Thinking about taking a break from the cut for a while. I feel like I've been getting run down and now sick. Might just jump back on the calories and enjoy the extra fuel again for a bit.

Nothing wrong with taking a diet break, eating around maintenance to allow your body to recover and re-sensitise then hitting it again. Can’t go hard constantly.
 
True that. Also being older I think I need to be a little more forgiving on myself 😂 can't take the abuse like when I was 20.
100% brother! Unfortunately none of us can stay young forever and goals take longer and are more difficult to achieve as we age. That being said can still push to achieve them but as you said need to be more forgiving on yourself and also more patient I guess.
 
Still battling a head cold. But managed to get a walk in. Getting the shits with not being able to hit the gym.

Hope you feel better soon brother! The change in weather from warm to cold always messes me up.
